Second John F Kennedy quote"WE CHOOSE TO GO TO THE MOON IN THIS DECADE AND DO OTHER <br /> THINGS, NOT BECAUSE THEY ARE EASY, BUT BECAUSE THEY ARE HARD." <br /> Now for whateverdirection we may or may not go,you can not get there unless you are well grounded <br /> in knowing where you are at.We need to know the true cost of Fire Services.These would include <br /> Operational, Capital, Debt Service,facilities..and others? <br /> The good news is these are all items/numbers currently in our finance director's wheelhouse.Timely as <br /> we are currently preparing for our next budget cycle. We would be asking Hannah to just compile data <br /> she already has. <br /> Let me end by stating loud and clear that the most important aspect of this conversation is centered on <br /> looking forward. In Kennedy's second quote again it said "Let us accept our own responsibility for the <br /> future"This conversation is about looking forward--it is about possibilities! <br /> For those inside these walls and for within walls that stretch across our neighboring communities let it <br /> be know in these conversations EVERYTHING IS ON THE TABLE.I repeat EVERYTHING IS ON THE TABLE! <br /> Any and all conversations will be grounded in TRUST. Lino Lakes will have no conditions or pretenses <br /> again EVERYTHING IS ON THE TABLE. <br /> In first responder speak it's time for us in this room "TO ANWSER THE CALL" <br /> Let us demonstrate our leadership with the same courage and strength of purpose of our first <br /> responders! <br /> Let's answer the call!!! <br /> Councilmember Lyden <br />
