2) Begin the work on the dam refurbishment as soon as possible.

4) Keep the Coon Rapids Regional Dam Commission authorized in Chapter 361, Minnesota Session Laws, 2010 Regular Session in existence for up to 12 months to study and address the issues of governance, ownership, and operation of the dam.
5) Refurbishment of the dam should be done in such a manner as to not impede future installation of hydroelectric power.
Staff is asking Ramsey Council to express their support for these recommendations for refurbishment of the Coon Rapids Dam as well.
