2 <br />Wtir's Hturt <br />� INREY J <br />RAMSEY WANTS You! <br />The City of Ramsey is looking for residents <br />who are interested in participating in the development <br />and governance of their community. From time to time <br />there are openings or vacancies on commissions and <br />we need residents who are willing to get involved. <br />Serving on a commission requires an interest in the <br />community and the ability to give time in reviewing <br />packets of material and attending monthly meetings. <br />This is an excellent way to meet other residents and to <br />contribute in a very meaningful way to your community. <br />The City of Ramsey is seeking candidates for <br />the Park & Recreation Commission and Economic <br />Development Authority (EDA), and is in the process <br />of reviewing reappointments to determine if there will <br />also be a need for candidates for the Planning <br />Commission. If you would like to be considered for a <br />seat on any of these commissions, please submit a letter <br />of interest specifying the position being applied for as <br />well as your name, address, telephone number, work <br />experience, education, and any experience you have <br />had in municipal affairs. In addition, your letter should <br />include a statement listing your reasons for seeking <br />appointment to a commission. Please submit your letter <br />of interest to the Human Resources Manager, City of <br />Ramsey, 15153 Nowthen Boulevard NW, Ramsey, MN <br />55303.

We have had 174 theft from vehicle calls since January <br />1, 2001. People who have to leave their cars outside or in large <br />common garages are the most vulnerable. Below are some tips <br />to keep you from becoming a victim. <br />1. Accept that this crime doesn't just happen to other people, it <br />can happen to you. <br />2. Do NOT leave any valuables in your vehicle! Common items <br />taken include car stereos, CD's, cellular phones, radar <br />detectors, expensive sunglasses, briefcases or gym bags, <br />laptops, tools, purses, checkbooks, credit cards, garage door <br />openers and even small amounts of change. <br />3. Keep your valuables in one bag so they can be easily brought <br />with you. <br />4. If you can afford a car alarm system, get one and use it. <br />5. Park under a street light or where the car may easily be <br />seen. <br />6. Police patrol alone will not prevent this crime. Practice the <br />crime prevention strategies above to minimize your chances <br />of being a victim. <br />7. Call 911 to report suspicious people or activities. <br />8. Start a Neighborhood Watch Group in your neighborhood. <br />Contact your Crime Prevention Specialist, Chandra Kreyer <br />at 763.427.6812. <br />Working Together to Keep Our Community Safe <br />closer than they appear. — Anonymous <br />
