<br />WHAT'S HAPPENING
<br />
<br />AT CITY HALL
<br />
<br />City Council met on June 27 and conducted a public hear-
<br />ing and directed City Staff to negotiate with the property
<br />owners to vacate the drainage easement on Lot 3, Block 5,
<br />Whispering Pines Estates and provide for an alternative to
<br />drainage. Council approved ordering bids for the im-
<br />provements to 156th Avenue NW. from Cty. Rd. #56 to High
<br />Point Addition and 300 feet south onto Hematite Street N.W.
<br />Representatives of F&R Enterprises were present requesting
<br />an open burn permit for property north of Hwy. #10 and
<br />west of Puma Street in order to dispose of approximately
<br />170-250 truckloads of trees. Council was of the opinion that
<br />burning the trees would pose too great a risk to the sur-
<br />rounding area and directed City Staff to prepare findings of
<br />fact to deny F&R's request for an open burn permit. Council
<br />approved Skelgas' site plan for an expansion to the existing
<br />office building at 7255 Hwy. #10. The proposed Dellwood
<br />Hills (9 single family lots to be developed south of Cty. Rd.
<br />#63 and west of Bison) received preliminary plat approval.
<br />The proposed Oak Run Addition (12 single family lots to be
<br />developed east of Nowthen Blvd. and north of and including
<br />Coquina Street) and North Forty 2nd Addition (13 single fami-
<br />ly lots to be developed west of Whispering Pines Estates
<br />Plat 3) received final plat approval. Council awarded the 1989
<br />sealcoating projects to Allied Blacktop. Mr. Ben Deemer and
<br />Mr. David Bawden were appointed to fill the vacancies on
<br />the Planning and Zoning Commission.
<br />
<br />City Council met on July 11, conducted an informational
<br />meeting regarding the proposed alignments for the exten-
<br />sion of 153rd Avenue N.W. between Cty. Rd. #56 and Cty.
<br />Rd. #5 and selected a preferred route for which an En-
<br />vironmental Assessment Worksheet and Feasibility Study will
<br />be prepared. Council adopted findings and denied F&R's re-
<br />quest for an open burn on property north of Hwy. #10 and
<br />west of Puma Street. The Mayor presented a letter of recogni-
<br />tion to all members of the Ramsey Lions Club for their leader-
<br />ship in promoting the community spirit. Council entered in-
<br />to an agreement to vacate the drainage easement on Lot
<br />3, Block 5, Whispering Pines Estates and cost sharing the
<br />installation of storm sewer. Council ordered plans for the
<br />paving of Hematite from 154th Lane to 300 feet south of
<br />156th Avenue. Staff was directed to draft a policy for Coun-
<br />cil consideration that would, in the event there is a suffi-
<br />cient amount of public interest in serving, eliminate dual
<br />membership on boards and commission. Council rezoned
<br />property north of Hwy. #10 and east of Armstrong Blvd. from
<br />1-1 Industrial to B-1 Business. The paving of 156th Avenue
<br />between Cty. Rd. #56 and High Point was awarded to W.B.
<br />Miller, Inc.

<br />TODA V'S 4.H
<br />
<br />This family focused program has made changes to stay
<br />current with the needs of today's youth.
<br />4-H members can be clowns or part of a musical produc-
<br />tion, they can learn about computers or direct a video show,
<br />they can make a salad or learn how to plant a garden, they
<br />can learn how to take photographs or study their family
<br />heritage.
<br />4-H members live in the urban areas and in the suburbs,
<br />too! Some live in apartments, others in townhouses or single-
<br />family homes. Wherever kids live there is a place for 4-H.
<br />4-H offers a variety of experiences for youth ages 6-19.
<br />The Cloverbud program helps 6 and 7 year olds get ac-
<br />quainted with the wide variety of experiences the program
<br />has to offer. By the time they are 8 they can choose what
<br />they want to learn about and participate in. In addition, as
<br />members near the teenage years they begin to take on leader-
<br />ship roles and learn responsibility.
<br />4-H focuses on the family, no matter who the members
<br />might be. Events, activities and projects provide wonderful
<br />opportunities for a parent or for parents to guide, support,
<br />and encourage their child. There are also many chances to
<br />have just plain fun with lots of laughter.
<br />In Anoka County, over 524 families are part of the 4-H
<br />program. There is room for you! Give us a call at 755-1280
<br />to learn more about Today's 4-H...it may surprise you!
<br />
<br />4.H FOCUSES ON
<br />ALCOHOL EDUCATION AND
<br />SEA TBEL T SAFETY
<br />
<br />John Jordi of Blaine and Simone Schara of Andover, Anoka
<br />County 4-H Teen Leaders, have been making presentations
<br />that emphasize the importance of using the correct car seat
<br />for infants and toddlers and seatbelts for older youth and
<br />adults. By using dolls of differing sizes, a baby car seat, and
<br />a magical seatbelt, the teens involved the audience in deter-
<br />mining the correct seatbelt method for different people. The

<br />
<br />session came to an exciting conclusion with a visit from Vince
<br />and Larry, the test crash dummies.
<br />In addition, the 4-H teens made presentations on alcohol
<br />use and abuse facts. Through the use of videos, discussion,
<br />and games the audience learned how alcohol affects young
<br />people, alternative activities, and how to respond to peer
<br />pressure. These presentations are offered by the Anoka
<br />County 4-H program to address current issues that directly
<br />relate to youth. This program is funded through a grant from
<br />the Minnesota Department of Public Safety and the National
<br />Highway Traffic Safety Administration. For more informa-
<br />tion on these and other 4-H programs, call the Anoka Coun-
<br />ty Extension Service at 755-1280.
