<br /> <br />from the Office of the Mayor <br />This past year has been a very busy <br />year for the City Council and Staff. <br />This year as last we had several <br />public hearings on blacktopping City <br />streets which were petitioned by the <br />residents of the areas. We were <br />happy to see the excellent turn out at <br />these hearings and get your <br />comments. All of the projects were <br />com pleted except for shoulder and <br />drainage work which will be <br />Completed in the spring of 1982. <br />We passed a City Budget which <br />decreased the mill rate by one and a <br />third mills. This should help. to hold <br />your City tax level or give a small <br />decrease. We will not have to cut <br />back in any City services because of <br />State Budget problems and cuts in <br />State Aid payments. <br />Weare also in the process of <br />finishing the lower level of City Hall <br />with a kitchen and meeting rooms <br />which are available for organizations'- <br />and citizens to use for their activities. <br />This was made possible by a $37,000 <br />HUD Grant. <br />We have two new companies move <br />into the City - Altron, Inc. and <br />Ralph's Country Meats. There was a <br />major addition built on the Super <br />Bowl, Inc. and major remodeling to <br />the DeZiel's Supper Club which is <br />now known as Jimmy B's AMerican. <br />These businesses alone will provide <br />approximately 200 new job <br />opportunities for people in this area. <br />I would like to thank the <br />Community School Advisory <br />Council, Lions, RY AA, Hockey <br />Association, Jaycee Women, 4-H, Boy <br />Scouts, Girl Scouts, Brownies and all <br />the citizens of Ramsey who helped <br />make the Halloween Party and other <br /> <br />City activities so successful this past <br />year. <br />I would also like to wish everyone" <br />in the City of Ramsey a very Happy <br />Holiday Season. <br /> <br />Thomas G. Gamec, Mayor <br /> <br />Only Three Left <br />The Jaycee Women of Ramsey have <br />only three sets of solid wood, <br />unpainted building blocks. Each set <br />has over 40 piects of various shapes <br />and sizes for lots of creative play. The <br />Achievement Center (Workshop for <br />Handicapped} in Worthington, <br />Minnesota produced these blocks, <br />and all proceeds go back to them. The <br />price for a set is only $8.00.
