<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Case #2: Transportation: <br /> <br />Chairman Greenberg stated there has been a meeting with Anoka regarding a <br />new bridge in Champlin, Ferry Street being 6 lanes up to Main Street and 4 <br />lanes up to Hwy. 10. Ramsey's concern is traffic funneling through. that area <br />and into RaIlisey. Anoka wants another river c:POssing and they don '.t want to <br />see Hwy. 47 upgraded and they do agree a railroad overpass is needed. There <br />will be another meeting Thursday, April 12, 1984; we are trying to get the <br />cities of Anoka, Champlin and Ramsey united as to what we think will be the <br />best way to funnel traffic. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec noted a letter from City Manager of Anoka regarding the formation <br />of a joint Highway Task Force (Ramsey, Anoka, Champline and Dayton). <br /> <br />Case #3: Subcommittee Reports <br /> <br />a) Legislative Subcommittee - Commissioner Muller stated he had no report <br />at this time. <br /> <br />Mr. Schnelle requested that Commissioner Muller check on upcoming bills <br />before Legislature. <br /> <br />b) <br /> <br />Economic Subcommittee - Chairman Greenberg had no report at this time. <br /> <br />c) <br /> <br />Finance Subcommittee - Commissioner Schmidt suggested that CDBG funds be <br />used to hire a specialist to get Ramsey's Local Development Corportation <br />established. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec stated that type of person could do so mucl1 for the City in <br />other areas also and he would rather see that type of person put in the <br />City budget rather than using grant monies; hiring planners project by <br />project could end up costing the City more than it would cost to add such <br />a person to Staff. <br /> <br />Case #4: Miscellaneous (A.
