5800 85th AVENUE NORTH / BROOKLYN PARK,MN. 55443 /612-424-8000 <br /> CITY OF -- <br /> BROOKLYN December 28 , 1987 <br /> PARK <br /> Mayor Robert Sundland <br /> 3101 Roosevelt Street NE <br /> St . Anthony, MN 55418 <br /> Dear Mayor Sundland: <br /> As you know, the Northern Mayors' Association has been in <br /> existence for more than two years and it has had some success in <br /> voicing our concerns to state legislators . It is obvious , <br /> however , that not enough resources are available to achieve our <br /> .transportation ' goals and to promote economic growth in the <br /> northern - suburbs. <br /> A Steering Committee was formed to investigate what resources are <br /> needed to achieve our objectives. Attached is a copy of the <br /> Committee's report which was wholeheartedly accepted and approved <br /> • by the Board of Directors on December 21, 1987. The report <br /> indicates an annual budget of $100, 000 from member cities to be <br /> supplemented by funds generated from the private sector . <br /> Fifteen of our 21-member cities were present at the meeting and <br /> unanimously agreed to the need of strong support for this <br /> program. Concern for a timely, commencement of this project was <br /> expressed in order to have an impact with the 1988 state <br /> leg.islature starting this January. <br /> We strongly encourage your city to adopt the enclosed resolution <br /> as soon as possible and return the resolution to the Northern <br /> Mayors' Association (c/o Charles, Darth, City of Brooklyn Park , <br /> 5800 85th'-Avenue North, Brooklyn Park, MN 55443) by February <br /> 15, 1988. If you have any questions , please do not hesitate to <br /> contact- me (560-'8022) , Doug Reeder (420-4000) , or' Hank Sinda <br /> (633-1533) . <br /> Sincerely, <br /> mes J . Krautkremer <br /> yor.. <br /> cc: David Childs , City. Manager <br /> • Enclosures <br /> JK/zao <br />
