Information

Title:

Washington, D.C. Meetings

Purpose/Background:

During the previous trip to Washington, D.C., Congressional staff recommended that City officials meet with House Transportation Committee staff at a future date.  The Committee is preparing legislation to secure funding to address intersections and interchanges along critical U.S. highways.  This is legislation being promoted by Congressman Emmer and would likely benefit projects along US Highway 10.

The US Transportation Alliance has a meeting in Washington, D.C. on June 18-19 and it is recommended that the City send a representative(s) to that meeting, and to meet with the Committee staff during the same time period.

The City has an interest in continuing to push for transportation funding, to assist our Congressional delegation in shaping legislation, and to raise awareness of our needs and grant application.  We also are asking that Federal DOT/FHA officials visit Ramsey sometime this year. Staff supports sending an additional delegation to Washington, D.C. in June.
