Based on conversations with staff of both watershed organizations,I offer the following <br /> comments in regard to the City's participation in either: <br /> Rice Creek Watershed District <br /> • The City of St. Anthony would contribute approximately $13.00 annually per $100,000 in home <br /> value. <br /> • City of St. Anthony may not receive direct representation on the Rice Creek Watershed District <br /> Board. <br /> 0 The majority of issues within the RCWD are not affected by the City of St. Anthony,therefore,the <br /> probability that funds would be expended by the RCWD within the City of St. Anthony is low. <br /> • The RCWD would acquire permitting of all projects within the City of St. Anthony. <br /> Middle Mississippi River Watershed District <br /> 0 Based on the current budget analysis, the City of St. Anthony residents would be taxed <br /> approximately$22.00 annually per$100,000 value of residential property. <br /> • The City of St. Anthony would receive direct representation on the Board of the MMRWMO. <br /> • The City of St. Anthony may have issues associated with the redevelopment of St.Anthony Village <br /> • Shopping Center in which funds from the MMRWMO may be utilized. <br /> • MMRWMO will not undertake permitting activities within the Village. <br />_ M i n n e a p o I i s S t .
