b) The State's Workmen's Compensation Insurance law which is extremely financially burdensome on our small businessmen. c) The State's Local Aid to Cities Tax Relief. Here the State of Minnesota has absolutely ignored the City of Ramsey's plea for a fair and equitable law. d) The State's law that set up the Mmnicipal State Aid Street Apportionment of funds to cities over 5,000 population. This law is absolutely not equitable to the growth centers such as cities like Ramsey. 2) This request is being made in hopes that the citizens and City Council of the City of Ramsey can meet with you and point out how 'the above is having a dire affect on the City of Ramsey and evidently the whole State of Minnesota which was pointed out by KSTP Television in a recent series of broadcasts. It has always been said that you are the one political leader in our State who will travel to a commtmity to hear from its citizens and its elected leaders. Consequently, we are requesting that you do come to our commtmity and hear about the above problems. 3) The City of Ramsey further requests that this meeting take place before our legislative session adjourns. We would greatly appreciate a response on this request as to the date and time you can meet with the City of Ramsey at the Ramsey Municipal Center.
