FENCES Along with that last article comes the note that if you want to put a fence on your property, please be sure and check with the Village Hall first! Even if the fence meets all codes and ordinances, a Building Permit is still required. It is rather disconcerting, as ore new home owner discovered, to have your fence half -completed and then be told that you need a prmit, that Arden Hills does not allow completely solid -type fencing, and that it's facing the wrong way (posts are supposed to be to the inside.) Remember about being safe rather than sorry, DOG LICENSES It's that time of year again, and all dogs in Arden Hills must have,a 1980 license by January 1. Renewal forms have been sent to all known dog owners in the Village; new owners or new residents with dogs should contact the Village Hall (633-5676) for a license form. The licenses are issued for two years for $10.00 and you must provide proof of rabies vaccination. The cost is the same for both males and females and there is a $4.00 penalty fee if you apply late. If you receive a license form in the mail and no longer own a dog, please call the Village Hall and tell thew; it would help out greatly. CABLE TELEVISION By the time you receive this newsletter, the Arden Hills Cable TV Com- mittee should have already met and begun to investigate the desire for Cable TV in AH. Since last month, the Council has appointed three more members to this committees Mary Ann Lindberg, Joseph North, and William Bauer. It has also been suggested that Arden Hills merge with New Brighton for the purposes of establishing a Cable TV territory. 911 EMERGENCY TELEPHONE SYSTEM PLAN The 911 Emergency Telephone System Plan is a plan designed to "provide the public with direct ialephone access to a dispatching center which will notify the appropriate police, fire, or emergency medical services agency" in case of an emergency. In other words, if you need help fast, dial 911. The State has mandated that the seven county metro area go ahead and make plans for the installation bf this network; a 1977 survey showed that 60% of the residents in the Twin Cities did not know the correct number to call for an emergency. There will be no direct cost to Arden Hills, because the system will be funded by the county, state, and federal governments. (However, we all under- stand from whence these governments obtain their money!) The system is pro- jected to be in by the end of 1982. DECEMBER MEETINGS Because of the holiday in December, many of the regular meetings of the Village committees will be rescheduled or held in places other than the City Hall. Therefore, please check with the Village first if youplanto attend ' any of the meetings. The number is, as always, 633-5676. The regular Council meeting should be on the last Monday of the month which, this year, is December 31. Although that is not a legal holiday, it was thought that New Year's Eve might not be the best time to conduct business.' As of this writing, the new date has not been established. MINNESOTA BAPTIST CONFERENCE DONATION Again this year, the Minnesota Baptist Conference has made tion to the City of Arden Hills "for services rendered." It is to thank them publicly; the amount is $200. a free dona- a real pleasure ii 1J
