However, we were willing to work with <br /> Mounds View as the issue seemed important to you. It is clear to us that we <br /> wasted our time and energy. It is our contention that if we were to ask our <br /> property owners their preference for a name, it would be Spring Lake Park <br /> Boulevard and Blaine's property owners would choose Blaine Boulevard <br /> however, it is not their responsibility to consider the bigger picture even when <br /> we all appear to agree that"it would be advantageous to have one name for <br /> the roadway as it passes through several north metro communities...that could <br /> and should serve as a common thread to identify and represent the north <br /> suburban area as a whole." <br /> In your letter you state that in your discussions with your City Council, "it <br /> was acknowledged that a consistent name through our three communities <br /> would be preferable however, it seems apparent that such a consensus may <br /> not be reached." It seems apparent to us that a consensus may not be reached <br /> because the City of Mounds View had already decided on a name and does <br /> • F�,�lr** k not wish to pursue other choices. <br />
