Getting going

The time has come to really make an effort to start this blog. I most likely will not have the time to write long in depth articles. My intent is to simply let everyone know what is going on in the city.
Please feel free to leave comments and email mail me with questions.

On Tuesday the city council settled on a tax rate for the 2010 budget. Formal action will take place at the Sept. 8th city council meeting. We are required to submit our maximum levy rate by Sept. 15th. The consensus is that we will select a levy of $7,485,899 for 2010. The levy for 2009 was $8,383,739. This means a tax cut on your city tax portion of your property taxes.
With various cost cutting measures and becoming more efficient, the council believes we can deliver the same level of service as this year with this rate.
Please pass the word around about this blog to other Ramsey residents.
