<br />CITY SPONSORS
<br />TREE GIVE-AWAY
<br />
<br />As a special observance of Arbor Day, the City has
<br />purchased a containerized tree to be presented as
<br />a gift to each household in Ramsey. The residents
<br />will be given a choice of 4 species: Red Pine, Nor-
<br />way Spruce, Sugar Maple or Tamarack. The trees
<br />will be distributed on Saturday, April 29 at the Pet
<br />Clinic, the Arbor Day Ceremony and the "Mom, Ap-
<br />ple Pie and PT A" event. If you are unable to attend
<br />any of these events, you will be able to receive your
<br />tree on May 6 at the Clean-Up Day Event, the Green
<br />Business Expo or the Tree Sale.
<br />Volunteers are needed to help distribute the free
<br />trees at these six events on April 29 and May 6.
<br />Volunteers are asked to offer their services at
<br />whichever event they choose to attend.
<br />Also in conjunction with Arbor Day, the City will
<br />be providing 2,000 seedlings for planting at Ramsey
<br />Municipal Center, Ramsey Elementary School and
<br />Ramsey Central Park. To do this, we need your help.
<br />All volunteers for this effort should arrive at Ramsey
<br />Elementary School at 9:00 a.m. on April 29. The
<br />volunteers will then be divided into 3 work parties
<br />that will participate in the 10:00 a.m. Arbor Day
<br />Ceremony with Mayor Gary Reimann, County Com-
<br />missioner Natalie Haas Steffen and Ramsey School
<br />Principal Paul Reifenberger. Following the
<br />ceremony, the work parties will plant the seedlings.

<br />ANNUAL SPRING
<br />PET VACCINATION CLINIC
<br />
<br />The City of Ramsey will be sponsoring its annual
<br />spring pet vaccination clinic on Saturday, April 29,
<br />1989 from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon. Vaccinations will
<br />be given by Dr. David Gilgenbach of the Elk River
<br />Veterinary Clinic and will be administered in the
<br />lower level fire barn of the Ramsey Municipal Center,
<br />15153 Nowthen Blvd. NW. The following shots will
<br />be offered:
<br />Rabies (canine and feline) $ 4.75
<br />DHLP and Parvovirus
<br />combined (canine) 11.00
<br />Pan RC-C-P (feline) 5.75
<br />City Ordinance requires that all dogs be vac-
<br />cinated against rabies and licensed. City personnel
<br />will be available to issue dog licenses and identifica-
<br />tion tags at the clinic. If your dog has been vac-
<br />cinated recently but you do not have a current
<br />license, this is your chance to purchase a dog
<br />license without having to come to City Hall during
<br />regular business hours (you must bring in the cur-
<br />rent rabies vaccination certificate). The license fee
<br />is $3.00 for males and spayed females and $5.00
<br />for unspayed females. Dogs must be licensed when
<br />they reach six months of age. The license is valid
<br />for two years to coincide with the rabies vaccination.
<br />The City does not require the licensing of cats.
<br />ALL ANIMALS MUST BE LEASHED WHEN
<br />BROUGHT TO THE CLINIC.
<br />YOU ARE URGED TO PROTECT YOUR PET,
<br />YOURSELF, AND YOUR COMMUNITY BY PAR-
<br />TICIPATING IN THE PET VACCINATION CLINIC.

<br />
<br />ATTENTION
<br />ALL PET OWNERS
<br />
<br />The following information is provided to all owners
<br />of pets in the City of Ramsey:
<br />Cats - Although a cat is not required to be licens-
<br />ed or vaccinated, it is unlawful to let a cat run at
<br />large. Just as with dogs, cats are subject to
<br />impounding.
<br />Dogs - All dogs must be licensed (if over six
<br />months of age) and must be vaccinated at least once
<br />every two years against rabies. Dogs are not allow-
<br />ed to run at large (off the premises of the owner) and
<br />when off the premises of the owner, must be on a
<br />leash or otherwise effectively controlled. It is unlawful
<br />for any person to keep or harbor a dog which
<br />habitually barks or cries. It is unlawful for any dog
<br />owner to permit his dog to damage any lawn, garden,
<br />or other property. Any of these violations can result
<br />in impounding and a police citation as provided in
<br />City ordinance. A complaint may be issued by
<br />anyone against the owner of such dog.
