September 7, 1983 <br />Water Resources Board <br />555 Wabasha Street <br />Room 206 <br />St. Paul, MN 55102 <br />Attention: Mel Sinn <br />Acting Executive Director <br />Dear Mr. Sinn: <br />gt4;t, % <br />Cif of VOR s 4 <br />RAMSEY COUNTY, MINNIESOTA <br />2401 HIGHWAY 10 <br />MOUNDS VIEW, MINN. 55112 <br />1Raa055 <br />The City of Mounds View is in receipt of your notice dated <br />August 17, 1983 regarding a meeting of the Water Resources <br />Board for the purpose of receiving input on the issue of an <br />increase in the number of managers for the Rice Creek Watershed <br />District. <br />The Mounds View City Council discussed this issue in great <br />�^ detail and came to the conclusion that, from their perspective, <br />the existing number of managers is sufficient for the efficient <br />conduct of District business and affords adequate representation <br />of the area encompassing the District's jurisdiction. The City <br />Council, therefore, does not feel that an increase in the number <br />of managers is needed. <br />The City Council did, however, fell that the role of the Board <br />of Directors as a policy -making body could be improved by <br />affording greater opportunity for public participation in the <br />policy -making process. With that in mind, the City would <br />.recommend that the opportunity for increased participation in <br />the workings of the Rice Creek Watershed District by local <br />government units and citizens be provided for particularly <br />as it relates to the development and implementation of programs <br />mandated by Chapter 509. <br />Your consideration of our comments during your deliberations <br />will be greatly appreciated. <br />Sincerely, <br />CITY OF MOUNDS VIEW <br />Donald F. Pauley <br />Clerk -Administrator <br />DFP/mb <br />
