COUNTY OF RAMSEY
STATE OF MINNESOTA
RESOLUTION OFFICIALLY WITHDRAWING CITY SUPPORT FOR AND
INVOLVEMENT IN THE REGIONAL SENIOR CENTER PROJECT
WHEREAS, the four cities of Mounds View, Fridley, Spring Lake
Park and New Brighton began the exploration of a Regional Senior
Center several years ago; and
WHEREAS, the purpose of the project was to build a joint
facility to be used by senior residents from the four communities
thereby responding to a growing need expressed by area senior
residents; and
WHEREAS, a Regional Senior Center Task Force, consisting of
representatives from the four cities, charged with studying the
proposal to determine the feasibility, cost and site; and
WHEREAS, on April 8, 1992, the Regional Senior Center Task
Force approved the Rice Creek Plaza as the secondary site after the
Metropolitan Council refused to consider the primary site in the
Locke Lake Regional Park; and
WHEREAS, it does not appear that the Rice Creek Plaza site
will be available in the immediate future; and
WHEREAS, the city of Fridley has formally notified the other
three cities that it no longer desires to pursue the regional
concept; and
WHEREAS, the City of Mounds View has undertaken an alliance
with Independent School District 621 to explore opportunities for
a multi-use facility.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT the City of Mounds View
does hereby declare that it is also withdrawing from the Regional
Senior Center Project.
Adopted this 8th day of May, 1995.
