Greetings District 1,

I hope this message finds you well and enjoying all that summer in Ramsey County has to offer. As your District 1 Commissioner, I believe that strong communities are built through connection, conversation, and collaboration. That’s why I’m committed to creating spaces where we can come together to share ideas and build lasting relationships.

I’m excited to invite you to our District 1 Community Picnic, a chance to gather as neighbors, enjoy good food, and hear updates from the county. In addition, I’m launching monthly office hours—an open invitation for you to drop by, ask questions, share concerns, or just say hello. 

Together, we can continue to shape a Ramsey County where everyone feels heard, supported, and proud to call home.

Sincerely,

Tara Jebens-Singh
