RESOLUTION
RESOLVED tl!at
CITY COLRJCIL (Board of Aldermen)
(i~?ame of Organization)
of
the City of Columbia Hei.~h..ts, Anoka County, ~,f. innesota
(Locstiou)
hereby endorse the oroject for outting boat lifts over the dams and
falls in the Mississiooi River in Minneaoolis and ooints above so that
motor boats can enjoy this marvelous stream.
We call attention to the fact that the ex~ense of boat lifts will
be small and the benefits large. Nowhere in the world can motor boats
within thirty miles enjoy the excellent fishing, wild life, and sylvan
wilderness of a stream like the Run River, historic soots like St.
Anthony and Minnehsha Falls, ~nd also see the heart of a great city,
the largest flour mill in the world, and the country's third largest
university. Those wishing to travel further can see Fort Shelling,
Mendota, the Minnesota River, St. Paul, and one of the country's grest-
est packing centers at South St. Paul.
We urge that these boat lifts be constructed this s~mmmer so tkat
visitors to Minnesota can enjoy both the 10,000 lakes and the wonderful
beauties of the Mississiopi and Rum Rivers.
