St. Paul to the Ramsey County Board of County Commissioners. The Board has not <br />made any final decision on this issue so it is important that communities <br />Ramsey County make their positions known to the commissioners now. Please send a copy <br />Aosevllle of any action you take to RCLLG so we can keep track of our members' <br />St. Paul views on this issue. <br />Shoreview I have enclosed two reports recently written on the issue, one by a study <br />Vadnais Heights <br />committee appointed by RCLLG and the other by Monty Martin, a Ramsey <br />County staff person. Mr. Martin's report was the focus of the January <br />White Bear Lake 18th RCLLG meeting. Speakers were Mr. Martin, Ramsey County Commissioner <br />White Bear Ruby Hunt and Mayor June Demos of Roseville. Many representatives from <br />Township suburban communities expressed concerns at that meeting about any possible <br />court consolidation. Some stated that they thought that cities would <br />have increased costs for police and prosecution expenses. There was <br />also a discussion on a possible plan whereby the county would establish <br />one or two suburban service centers which would house the courts plus <br />^.char ce:nty programs. Both county commissioners present, Ruby Hunt <br />and Don Salverda, suggested that communities and individuals concerned <br />about this issue, contact the Board with their views. <br />The Public Safety and Justice Committee of the Ramsey County Board of <br />Commissioners discussed Mr. Martin's report at a January 23rd meeting. <br />
