 Greetings everyone,
As we head in to the Memorial Day weekend I want to thank all of our armed forces who gave so selflessly. Ramsey County is indebted and grateful to the sacrifices you and your families have made- Thank you.
Additionally, I hope you all have a wonderful start to the summer. It is great to be getting outside and enjoying the best of what Ramsey County parks, trails, beaches all have to offer!
As a reminder, Ramsey County is holding both virtual and in-person meetings. Our board meetings are taking place in the County Board offices in the Ramsey County Courthouse. My office continues to serve constituent needs via phone (651-266-8359) or email (caitlyn.duin@ramseycounty.us).
Sincerely,
Mary Jo

Over the last few weeks I have had the pleasure of presenting to the district 2 city councils - Roseville, New Brighton, Little Canada and Lauderdale - and looking forward to attending St. Anthony Village City Council in the coming month. |
These have been great sessions in which to share what Ramsey County has been doing in our communities, and to hear what our local elected officials are experiencing in their cities.
I look forward to our continued partnerships and collaborations.
 Since tax statements have gone out, our office has received a number of questions about property tax and values notice.
