The city retained a <br />portion of the wood chips that are <br />now available to residents, free of <br />charge, located at the northern part of <br />the City Hall campus at 15153 <br /> <br />Nowthen Blvd. NW, for landscaping <br />projects around the home. <br />In conjunction with the <br />Environmental Expo being held April <br />29, the Ramsey Public Worl(s <br />Department will provide assistance <br />(for one day only) loading woodchips <br />at the northern part of the City Hall <br />campus during the Expo from 8:00 <br />am-l :00 pm.
