This college plays an important <br />role in our economic development efforts and in providing employees for Elk <br />River businesses. It seems very much in the interest of the city of Elk River to <br />have the technical college expand on its existing site or relocate to a larger site <br />in Ramsey, which is one of their options. A least desirable option being <br />considered is a relocation to the city of Coon Rapids while still maintaining its <br />presence in the city of Anoka. <br /> <br />The booklet analyzing the Anoka-Hennepin Technical College options has been <br />forwarded to Elk River and one copy has been given to the Mayor while <br />another copy has been provided to Director of Economic Development Paul <br />Steinman. Public input is being received on the two options by the <br />Foundation Board at 7:30 a.m. on Wednesday, March 10, and Paul will be in <br />attendance at this meeting to represent the city of Elk River. Mayor Klinzing <br />is scheduled to go to the 1:30 p.m. meeting on March 11 at the college <br />auditorium to provide input to the MNSCU Board on Elk River's position <br />regarding preferred expansion/relocation options. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway · P.O.
