To: <br /> <br />~ro~: <br /> <br />July 19, 1984 <br /> <br />Richard schne!le, City Administrator <br />Ramsey City Council <br />Ramsey Planning and Zoning commission <br /> <br />Barbara Austin <br />673B !53rd Lane NW <br />Ramsey, MN 55303 <br /> <br />Re: Expansion of the landfill <br /> <br />I am very disappointed in the Ramsey !lanning and Zoning <br />Commission for NOT denying the permit for expansion of <br />the landfill by Waste Management. I dc want to thank <br />Terry Hendriksen, Lee Johnson and Charles LaDue for the <br />motion made to deny the permit. Thank you and do it again. <br /> is NO MORL <br />You have h__Ad from the people and consensus <br />DUMP. Open your eyes and ears and nose. This dump has <br />to close in 85. Give us something to look forward to in <br />life. Don't deny us the right to life, liberty, and <br />the pursuit of happiness. <br /> I would like to know why Waste ManaEement purchased the <br /> ~ -~ has ~n approved~ isn't <br />north 80 acres before the ~.c ± . ~- <br /> that ';' patting the cart before the horses Or does Waste <br /> Mgmt. know something in advance that we don't know? What <br /> will happen to that beautiful 80 acres if and when the <br /> permit is denied? <br /> The first biggest mistake Ramsey has ever made was making <br /> this area surrounding the dump a residential area and the <br /> second biggest mistake would be to expand it and 2 wrongs <br /> don't make a right~!!!!!!!! <br /> I do have one question that needs clarification - regarding <br /> the !eachate pool. I gather this will not be fresh water, <br /> if you know what I mean, well, besides the smell of that <br /> and water infiltration to our wells (don't tell me no it <br /> won't happen) how about the popular Minnesota problem of <br /> mosquitos! Are they going to be ccntrolled? The flies are <br /> bad enough we don't need more mosquitos. <br />~ also have a few words regarding the depreciation of our <br />homes. I agree with the appraiser when he said the homes <br />will depreciate 5-10% (probably per year) but that's not <br />as important as what he said about "HE WOULDN'T WANT TO <br /> LIVE THERE HIMSELF". What value does that have? To me 100%. <br /> If you don't like the area, you won't buy the house - <br /> that's 100% loss right there. We looked into selling but <br /> found we couldn't afford a new mortgage so we are stuck. <br /> Make our living here bearable and close the dump. <br /> <br /> <br />
