<br />Ramsey Recycling
<br />
<br />NEEDS YOUR HELP!
<br />
<br />The City needs to recycle over 301 tons of material for 1990
<br />to receive the maximum number of dollars available to Ramsey
<br />from Anoka County for landfill abatement programs. To aid
<br />in reaching this goal, the City is requesting that every time
<br />you take your recyclables to a redemption center, you send
<br />the City a copy of the receipt indicating the weight of materials
<br />recycled. The receipts may be from any time during 1990. The
<br />weights recorded on the receipts will then be added to the
<br />City's current recycling report to be filed with Anoka County.
<br />
<br />With your help, Ramsey can exceed its total annual recycling
<br />goal before the end of the first reporting period and receive
<br />special recognition from Anoka County.
<br />
<br />Please send the receipts to:

<br />
<br />ARE YOUR OAKS DYING? Oak wilt continues to spread
<br />throughout our oak forests. Understanding the biology, spread
<br />and control of this tree disease will help you take the right steps
<br />to save your trees. Several programs have been scheduled for
<br />your convenience.
<br />
<br />CHIPPING UPDATE
<br />
<br />The City of Ramsey Decentralized Brush Chipping Program is
<br />now in its second month of operation. Unfortunately, we have
<br />fallen behind schedule because of some unforeseen obstacles.
<br />On the bright side, we have managed to chip 512 cubic yards
<br />of brush. The brush is available for pick up at Central Park
<br />anytime during the day. If you need more than what is
<br />available, please be patient because we will be chipping more.
<br />
<br />We ask that you do not drop off anymore brush at Central Park,
<br />City Hall or any other designated or non-designated sites.
<br />This only slows the process of chipping brush. To speed the
<br />process of Chipping we also ask you to make sure that your
<br />brush is visible to the chipping crews. Also make sure that the
<br />brush is accessible to the truck.
<br />
<br />These favors we ask will help us get on schedule and provide
<br />you the service that we promised. If you have any questions
<br />or problems please feel free to contact Mike Marquart,
<br />Community Development Intern, at Ramsey Municipal Center,
<br />427-1410.
