Title

Adopt 2023 Legislative Priorities

Purpose/Background:

Ramsey's 2022 Legislative Priorities saw limited success with some bills being introduced but not approved. 

The City Council has reviewed 2022 outcomes and identified 2023 Legislative Priorities.  As part of the review, Senator Bahr attended the January 10th Work Session and Representative Niska met with Mayor Kuzma, Councilors Specht and Woestehoff and City Administrator Hagen to understand Ramsey's priorities.

2023 Priorities with local impacts include:
  • Sales Tax Exemption for Water Treatment Plant
  • State Funding for Water Treatment Plant
  • Extension of Project Deadline for TIF 14 (The COR)
  • Funding for continued study of Ramsey/Dayton Mississippi River Crossing
  • Expansion of Metro Mobility Service Area to serve Ramsey
  • Closed landfill legislation to provide for industrial development

Recommendation:

Staff recommends adoption of the 2023 Legislative Priorities.  Staff would continue work with legislative representatives to advocate the importance and benefit of these approvals.

Action:

Motion to adopt 2023 Legislative Priorities.
