ex Jude the Hennepin County portion of the Village of St. Anthony from
the 41st District; and,

11HEREAS, in prior years, the Village Council and residents
of the Village have sought to have all of the lands within the boundaries
of St. Anthony Village included in one legislative district; and,
UHEREAS, the proposals reported to the Council appear to place
the Hennepin County portion of the Village of St. Anthony in a legislative
district with lands in Anoka County, thereby continuing to leave the
• Ramsey County portion of the Village in another legislative district; and,
!1HEREAS, the Village of St. Anthony has had a traditional
