Founded in 1971 as the seventh member of the State University System, the school has earned a growing reputation as an institution that provides a quality, affordable education. To facilitate the school 's continued development, the State Legislature earmarked funds in 1988 for the purchase of land in Dayton's Bluff where Metro State's administrative and student centers would be established. Issue Among the top ten priorities in the State University Board's 1992 bonding request are two projects for developing Metro State's facilities in Saint Paul. One is the acquisition of a one acre strip of land along Dayton' s Bluff (estimated at $650, 000) from the Saint Paul Port Authority. The other would allocate $120,000 for planning the rehabilitation of buildings A and C at the Dayton's Bluff site. Recommendation The City of Saint Paul supports the State University Board's bonding request for the continued development of Metropolitan State University facilities in the City. . ; - ��✓ T A B L E O F C O N T E N T S Initiate PAGE CSSP {Apprvd by Committee, 9/13/91) . . . . . . . . . . . . 3 Property Tax Relief: Local Government Aid {Apprvd by Committee, 10/18/91� . . 5 Constitutional Dedication of Sales Tax {Apprvd by Committee, 10/18/91} . . 7 Fiscal Disparities {Apprvd by Committee, l0/18/91} . . . . . 8 Polluted Lands {Approved by Council, 9/19/91} . . . . . . . 10 MELSA Funding {Apprvd by Committee, 10/18/91} . . . . . . . 13 Housing Issues {Apprvd by Committee, 11/22/91} . . . . . . . 17 HRA Expansion of Powers {Apprvd by Committee, 10/18/91} . . 24 Substantial Support Metropolitan Parks/Como Park Dept Service {Apprvd by Committee, 10/18/91} . . 27 URAP {Apprvd by Committee, 10/18/91} . . . . . . . . . . . . 32 � Public Safety Issues {Apprvd by Committee, 11/22/91} . . . . 34 � Maternal Child Health {Apprvd by Committee, 10/18/91} . . . 39 Parking Tag Income {Apprvd by Committee, 10/18/91} . . . . . 41 Housing Court {Apprvd by Committee, 10/18/91} . . . . . . . 43 Photo Cop {No recommendation, lack of quorum, 11/8/91� . . . 45 Metropolitan Transportation Trust Fund {No recommendation, lack of quorum, 11/8/91} . 47 Immunization Transferability/Medical Records {Apprvd by Committee, 10/18/91? . . 49 Metropolitan State University tNo recommendation, lack of quorum, 11/8/91} . 51 Presidential Primary Funding {No recommendation, lack of quorum, 11/8/91) . 53 Cultural Tourism/Historical Preservation District {No recommendation, lack of quorum, 11/8/91} . 55 Monitor . .
