The City expects to see continued growth in our annual market value as indicated in the chart below. MAJOR INITIATIVES Cooperative Efforts with Other Entities/Jurisdictions: The City contracts with the Little Canada Fire Department for fire services. LCFD is an independent corporation that provides contracted service only to Little Canada. The City contracts for police protection through the Ramsey County Sheriff’s Department. We are one of seven jurisdictions in the County to participate in the relationship. Managers/Administrators of each participant jurisdiction meet monthly to review operations, set budgets, and discuss service level in a cooperative manner that helps keep police costs as low as possible while meeting the public safety needs of our communities. The City is 1 of 45 jurisdictions that contracts with Roseville for information technology (IT) services. This arrangement creates an “economy of scale” that enables us to obtain excellent services that would be far more expensive for comparable quality. Water is purchased from St. Paul Regional Water Service (SPRWS). This water is treated and softened before delivery to our customers. Little Canada provides building inspection services to Falcon Heights. This arrangement allows both communities to provide a responsive and professional service at lower costs than if we each staff our own inspection program. Water and Sewer Infrastructure: The City operates and maintains both a water distribution and sanitary sewer collection system. As noted earlier, water is purchased from SPRWS. The City is responsible for maintenance of the water system and all customer relations. $- $200,000,000 $400,000,000 $600,000,000 $800,000,000 $1,000,000,000 $1,200,000,000 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 Estimated Market Value 6
