Case #5: Consider Alternative to Ramsey Resident Newsletter <br /> <br />City Administrator Norman stated that in October, the publisher of the Andover, Ramsey, <br />Ham Lake Times proposed that the City of Ramsey cease publication of its Ramsey <br />Resident newsletter and purchase space in his newspaper on a monthly basis. The <br />publisher reported that business owners in Ramsey had indicated a preference for his <br />proposal because the newsletter does not accept advertising as his paper does. Council <br />then directed staff to contact business owners to get information directly from them. A <br />letter was mailed to Ramsey's businesses inviting their opinions via mail, phone or fax. <br />From the three responses received, it appears they would prefer the Ramsey Resident. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Hendriksen and seconded by Councilmember Haas Steffen to <br />recommend to Council that the City should continue to publish the Ramsey Resident <br />rather than utilize a newspaper that covers a jurisdiction larger than the City. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Councilmembers Hendriksen, Haas Steffen, Anderson and <br />Zimmerman. Voting No: None. <br /> <br />Case #6: Request to Schedule Work Session <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Haas Steffen and seconded by Councilmember Hendriksen to <br />schedule a Council work session for 5:30 p.m., Tuesday, February 2, 1999, in the Police <br />Department Conference Room. <br /> <br />Motion carried.
