The County Capital Improvements budget for 2006 does have funds to <br />be used to obtain an option for land for this facility. We are considering a request <br />for,funding of the facility in 2007 and 2008. I think it is highly likely that the <br />project will proceed in that timeline. <br /> <br />Anoka County and the Coroner, Dr. Janis Amatuzio, feel that the medical <br />examiner's facility needs to be located in close proximity to U.S. Trunk Highway <br />10, and we know that there is a plan to locate such a facility near the proposed <br />Allina Medical Center along Ramsey Blvd. We would be open to considering <br />other sites that might be in or near Ramsey Town Center development. <br /> <br />Jim, the Finance and Capital Improvements Committee of the County Board has <br />asked me to seek your assistance in locating a site of approximately 1 acre in <br />size, to accommodate a single-story building of 11,000 square feet with an <br />approximate 3,000 square foot basement. Any assistance you can give us will <br />be greatly appreciated. <br />Sincerer/¢ <br />Terry Jg~so~, Division Manager <br />Finance & C~¢ntral Services Division <br />Cc: Jerry Soma, Division Manager <br /> Jay McLinden, County Administrator <br /> <br />Affirmative Action / Equal Opportunity Employer <br /> <br /> <br />
