PROCEEDINGS OF THE VILLAGE COUNCIL <br />VILLAGE OF MOUNDS VIEW <br />RAMSEY COUNTY, MINNESOTA <br />January 15, 1973 <br />A Special Meeting of the Mounds View Village Council on renumbering was called to <br />order by Mayor Neisen at 8 :00 P.M. on January 15, 1973 at the Mounds View Village <br />Hall, 2401 Highway #10, St. Paul, Minnesota 55112. <br />Present: <br />Mayor Neisen <br />Councilman Baumgartner <br />Councilman Johnson <br />Councilman Hodges <br />Councilman Pickar <br />Also Present: <br />Absent: <br />Clerk- Administrator Zylla <br />Attorney Meyers <br />Engineer Boehm <br />Clerk- Administrator Zylla explained the renumbering system advocated by the Village <br />Council which included renumbering all East -West numbers in Mounds View in the <br />postal zone 55432. The change was to make the numbers conform to those in the <br />postal zone 55112. A large map of the Village which outlined the present Minneapolis/ <br />St. Paul postal boundary was alluded to. The Clerk stressed the inconsistencies and <br />lack of uniformity in East -West numbers because of the postal boundary line. He <br />noted that two hearings were held prior to this evening's hearing, the last one in <br />July 1972. The result of the problem - the lack of persons being able to locate <br />residences and businesses - is what led to the discussion of renumbering. Clerk <br />Zylla stated that 288 letters were mailed to affected property owners notifying them <br />of the hearing and what their new number would be if the Council adopted the change. <br />Mayor Neisen noted that Mr. Ausse and Mr. Gregory were in attendance from the St. Paul <br />Post Office and Mr. McKuen was here from the Minneapolis Post Office. <br />Mayor Neisen called for questions or comments from the approximately 35 persons in <br />attendance. <br />Mr. Robert Knobel, 1875 County Road H stated that his number would be 200 different <br />from across the street (New Brighton) and an odd number just like across the street. <br />Mr. Gregory discussed the metropolitan numbering system. The Council felt no advan- <br />tage could be obtained by Mounds View going to the Metropolitan System until the <br />change was made area wide. <br />Mayor Neisen asked Mr. McKuen about future changes in mail delivery such as having <br />all mail delivered by St. Paul. Mr. McKuen replied that there has been discussion <br />about mail coming from one post office but nothing definite has been resolved. <br />Mr. Lyle Nelson, 2745 Sherwood Road advocated the change. <br />Mrs. Barbara Haake, 1740 County Road I advocated the proposed change plus changing <br />the zip code to 55112. <br />Mrs. Ole Bacon, postal committee member, stated she favored the change because people <br />can't find us. <br />Mr. Ausse stated we could write the District Office requesting one zip code. <br />
