We would then submit this Resolution <br />of Support to the State with Burn's petition to incorporate. We expect to file the incorporation <br />petition with the State sometime in late October. <br />Can you please place this Resolution of Support on the October 1, 2007 City Council <br />agenda for consideration by the Elk River City Council? Several of the Burns Town Board <br />members will be available to attend this meeting to answer any questions that the City Council <br />may have regarding Burns' desire to incorporate. In the meantime, please feel free to contact me <br />at 441-1347 or our Town Board Chair, Randy Bettinger at 753-4962 if you have any questions <br />regarding the proposed incorporation or the Resolution of Support or if you need any additional <br />information. Thank you very much for your consideration of this issue. <br />Sincerely, <br />BURNS TOWNSHIP <br />C~.,,,~ `x~. <br />Corrie LaDoucer <br />Township Clerk <br />Where~itat"~lL~eel~like~coua~cz`ry - - - <br />
