The issue is that the City Council is thinking about not funding <br /> the 20% match. This would mean that the grant would be awarded <br /> to a different city. If you think the pedestrian bridge would be <br /> a benefit to the youth of the community it is imperative that you <br /> show up at a City Council budget session, Monday, July 10 at 7:00 <br /> p.m. In addition it would is imperative that you send or fax a <br /> letter to the City Council voicing your support of the pedestrian <br /> bridge. <br /> Please address your letter to: Mounds View City Council, 2401 <br /> Highway 10, Mounds View, MN 55112. Fax #: 784-3462 . <br /> This is a one time chance for funding the pedestrian bridge. If <br /> the grant award is not accepted it will go to another city. It <br /> is unlikely that another funding grant for pedestrian bridges <br /> would be available. <br /> If you want a pedestrian bridge across Highway 10 you need to let <br /> your City Council members know, otherwise it will not be <br /> considered in the budget and the deadline will pass, along with <br /> the $480, 000 of federal grant funding for this project. <br /> If you have any questions, please call City Council member Julie <br /> Trude at 780-1854 who lobbied several State and Federal <br /> Congressman for the award of this project. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> • <br /> Mounds View Parks and Recreation Commissioners <br /> Wayne Burmeister, Chairperson <br /> Gary Stevenson <br /> Frank Silvis <br /> Pam Starr <br /> David Long <br /> Scott Dentz <br />
