I'm sure that in 1983 Lino Lakes will still make-.:-every attempt to im- prove the quality of life within the City. I believe we will continue to be responsive to the public and the task before us. Some of the City's objectives will be to establish a road maintenance policy which will address specifics each year. Finalize the City's zoning map, in- vite more agencies, Councils, and Boards to visit with the City Council in a continuing effort to improve communications. Complete the propane and park studies, pursue with other Cities, Counties, and School Aoards the possibility of shared facilities and services. Right now we have a Fire Task Force attempting to reach a sound fire protection plan for the area. We have entered into a shared agreement of our Building Inspector. Establish a Police committee, Review several Park proposals. Reach a sound decision on the Senior Citizen Building and possible addition to City Hall. Automate City offices for efficiency and economy. Make every attempt to esolve the assessment on the 4 lots
