<br />A WORD FROM YOUR
<br />
<br />TREE INSPECTOR
<br />
<br />By Bruce Bacon
<br />
<br />Drought, stress and disease increase tree maintenance
<br />needs. Drought means stress for trees and plants. Stress
<br />means opportunity for disease problems. Dead and dying
<br />trees mean a disposal problem. Prompt disposal controls
<br />the spread of bark beetles and fungus; watering and thinn-
<br />ing decreases stress. Neighborhood control and maintenance
<br />efforts are more effective than individual efforts.
<br />Pine Tree mortality has increased this summer and the
<br />bark beetle population is a threat to nearby pines. Dead and
<br />dying trees need to be burned, chipped or removed from
<br />the site. You can consider thinning your standing pines if
<br />they are spaced too closely to mature. You can also be water-
<br />ing your trees.
<br />PCA open burning permits are available for 30 day periods
<br />for disposal of diseased wood. The burning pile must be 600
<br />feet from the nearest neighboring dwelling. Permits may be
<br />obtained by applying at City Hall.
<br />Homeowners can also dispose of diseased wood by haul-
<br />ing it to the Anoka County Wood Disposal Site on Hanson
<br />Blvd., just north of East Main Street. The cost is $5.00 per
<br />pickup load. Hours are:
<br />Monday, Wednesday, Friday - Noon to 7:30 p.m.
<br />Tuesday, Thursday - Closed
<br />Saturday - 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
<br />Sunday - Noon to 5:00 p.m.
<br />
<br />NOTE: Pine wood can be used for outdoor campfires but
<br />can be hazardous when burned in stoves and fireplaces. Pine
<br />wood is resinous when burned, these residues can build up
<br />in the chimney and ignite as a chinmey fire.

<br />BUSINESS SCENE
<br />
<br />By: Ramsey Economic Development Commission
<br />
<br />Brothers Geno and George Moroz have been business part-
<br />ners since 1969. Shortly after Genos tours of duty in Viet-
<br />nam (USMC) they started their upholstering business in
<br />George's basement. From there they moved to a shop in
<br />Anoka where they stayed until they built a store on their land
<br />at 6013 - 167th Ave. NW. in Ramsey. In 1976 they moved
<br />the upholstery shop there and also added a line of new
<br />furniture.
<br />Wanting to get into a different business and seeing a need
<br />in this rural area, they gave up their upholstering and fur-
<br />niture business and opened a hardware store, Moroz OK
<br />Hardware, in 1979. A year later they added self-serve gas
<br />pumps.
<br />In 1985 they added five more stores to form a strip shop-
<br />ping center. In one of the stores they opened another
<br />business, Moroz Auto Parts Pro. That store has been manag-
<br />ed by Mike Haller since it opened.
<br />Most recently, they opened a convenience store in the spot
<br />where the auto parts store was and moved the auto parts
<br />store down two doors. The convenience store, G & G Foods,
<br />is managed by Kathy Rosse and Donna Swank and the gas
<br />pumps are now connected to that store.
<br />All three stores are open seven days a week.
<br />The other spaces in the center are rented by Video Up-
<br />date, The Place (billiards and amusements), and Joy' Gifts.
<br />George and his family have lived in Ramsey since 1971
<br />and Geno and his family have lived here since 1979.

<br />RAMSEY JAYCEES
<br />
<br />RECYCLING CENTER
<br />
<br />The Ramsey Jaycees in conjunction with Waste Manage-
<br />ment of Minnesota, Inc. maintain a recycling center at the
<br />Anoka Regional Sanitary Landfill on Sunfish Lake Blvd. The
<br />Center is open during landfill operating hours, Monday-Friday,
<br />7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and Saturdays, 8:00 a.m. to 1 :00
<br />p.m.
<br />Containers are provided for newspaper, metals, aluminum
<br />and glass. Newspapers should be bagged, boxed or bundl-
<br />ed. Items exclusively made of metal are accepted. No ap-
<br />pliances, drums, household garbage, or combination of metal
<br />and other materials are acceptable for recycling at this time.
<br />Glass must be separated by color: clear, light brown and
<br />green. (Note: Appliances can be disposed of at the landfill
<br />for $10/each. Tires can be disposed of at the landfill for $5.00
<br />each or $7.00 with rims.
<br />Residents are urged to start recycling now. No amount
<br />of recyclable items is too small; it all helps to reduce the
<br />flow into the landfill and all proceeds from the recycling
<br />center are turned over to the Ramsey Jaycees to be used
<br />for community service projects.
<br />In addition to the Jaycees proceeds, the City of Ramsey
<br />can receive a $4 per ton reimbursement from the State of
<br />Minnesota for any materials recycled within the City.
