chamber director uh Kerri Lorenzen has something going on tonight, we're going to put her right at the top like as soon as we approve tonight's agenda, she'll be the very first item. If uh you guys can approve that change, I would seek a motion to approve tonight's agenda. >> Make a motion. >> Second. >> Motion from Chad, second from Diane. All those in favor?

5
00:02:28.680 --> 00:02:48.000
>> Aye. >> Aye. >> Opposed? That carries. All right. Kerri, the floor is yours. >> Thank you for your flexibility. Busy night. >> Yeah. Press the button right at the base for the green light. >> There it is. Thank you. >> Yep. >> Um all right. Um I'm Kerri Lorenzen, the

6
00:02:48.000 --> 00:03:04.280
new chamber director for anybody that I haven't met. Um and just going to give you a quick update. In the last week, we've had a couple big events. Um last Thursday, we had our summer kickoff, which was a community event downtown. Um which given the challenges of the

7
00:03:04.280 --> 00:03:19.160
weather and a lot of people being out of town for the baseball state tournament, I think we still had a good turnout. Um it was fun, but I also am looking for feedback. So, if people have thoughts, things we could be doing differently, ideas, things like that, happy to hear

8
00:03:19.160 --> 00:03:33.640
that. We also had our golf tournament yesterday. We had a beautiful day, and we had um 24 um teams, which was really great. And so, I think everybody had a great time. Um and now we're focused on kind of

9
00:03:33.640 --> 00:03:51.400
preparing for Q3, Q4 events, um planning different things. So, um I'm open to ideas that anybody has. Please feel free to reach out to me. Okay. Thank you. >> Thank you, Kerri. Uh that gets us to our public input.

10
00:03:51.400 --> 00:04:07.640
Public input is intended to afford the public an opportunity to address concerns to the City Council. Public input will be no longer than 30 minutes in total length. Each speaker will have no more than 3 minutes to speak. Speakers may address the topics relevant to the governance of the city. Speakers must sign up in advance, must provide their name, address, and the topic they

11
00:04:07.640 --> 00:04:23.080
intend to address. Comments must be on topic, respectful, pertinent to city business, and adhere to the applicable data privacy rules. Any speaker that violates these rules will be asked to sit down. If the speaker refuses to comply, they may be removed from the meeting. Speakers shall not address topics that are the subject of a public

12
00:04:23.080 --> 00:04:39.040
hearing. All such comments shall be made at the public hearing. The City Council will not generally act on issues raised by the public input, but may choose to schedule consideration of them on a future agenda. Uh, first tonight we got Tim Deemer. Uh, sure. It was signed up that way, but

13
00:04:39.040 --> 00:05:03.919
we'll switch. Uh, so Laura Lamore? >> I hope I'm on topic and in the right uh, space. Um, so. Um, I came today because I'm very concerned about the data center that's being approved for Cannon Falls, and these are my concerns. Resources and environmental impact. 70% of Americans

14
00:05:03.919 --> 00:05:20.160
in polling are not in favor of these centers and mostly due to the impact that they're forced to contend with. Water shortages and contamination, light pollution from 24/7 bright lights, noise pollution that affects wildlife and peace, electrical shortages, outages, and

15
00:05:20.160 --> 00:05:36.560
escalating utility costs. These problems are not addressed by data centers, although they could be, and communities find that they are unreachable, hidden behind layers of legal protection, when promised to address the issues that are not being fulfilled. Certainty versus risk.

16
00:05:36.560 --> 00:05:52.040
Experts in the in this discussion say these data centers are being foisted on communities at a maddening pace. There are data data centers proposed all around us, Faribault, Farmington, Inver Far more than will likely be needed. The rush is

17
00:05:52.040 --> 00:06:07.640
called a speculative bubble driven by a desire to be in the lead, have the most, not due to actual need. These experts say that within 10 years the majority of these centers won't be needed because the technology that's driving the construction, AI, hasn't actually gotten

18
00:06:07.640 --> 00:06:24.240
to the point of estimating need. Our center will vary Our Our center could very well never have an occupant for AI because the market shrinks or because no big tech company wants to invest here. Land development companies want to

19
00:06:24.240 --> 00:06:40.680
I'm sorry. Land development companies like Tract are very eager to put up these centers promising jobs, sustainability, closed-loop systems, etc. But other communities report that once the projects get going, the commitments get dropped and communities have little to no recourse.

20
00:06:40.680 --> 00:06:56.040
Many cities and states are putting brakes on data centers as more is known about risk versus reward, as well as the economic uncertainty of them. AI is still uncertain in and of itself. The technology continues to evolve as does how society wants to engage with

21
00:06:56.040 --> 00:07:13.040
it. What is known is that data centers present many problems. No one wants them to be their neighbor. They are resource hungry and that appetite is not sustainable. Therefore, if the technology is to be something that we do decide we want, changes will

22
00:07:13.040 --> 00:07:28.880
be imperative. It seems certain that data centers like the ones we're considering could be and eventually will be built in a much more moderated and sustainable way. Maybe we should put the idea on pause until more of the design flaws can be worked out and the sustainability of the

23
00:07:28.880 --> 00:07:55.640
industry is better known. Thanks for your time. >> Thank you, Laura. Next up, we've got Tim Deemer. >> I wish I could have been more prepared and as very well said was to the American Falls wish there was

24
00:07:55.640 --> 00:08:17.860
somewhere else. Um So get the truth is what I wrote on there which is more and more of the truth. So I guess just to start off with this uh came to me maybe in a >> [clears throat]

25
00:08:18.240 --> 00:08:34.960
>> waking up uh to this uh thought of So I've got a question maybe more questions that would have to do with my original question or others questions

26
00:08:34.960 --> 00:08:51.880
um that I would really like to ask. And that's I I could end there. I I mean I'd really really like to ask these questions and they're not

27
00:08:51.880 --> 00:09:10.320
um maybe just a leave that hanging or thinking about this this neat little uh saying I I stumbled across

28
00:09:10.320 --> 00:09:27.080
which says sometimes someone unexpected comes into your life out of nowhere. And I think I would change the way this next makes your heart race and changes you forever. And what the answer what they say is

29
00:09:27.080 --> 00:09:43.320
these we call these people cops, police officers. Law enforcement. They put the the Do they they make my race because I'm so frustrated and this and that and just a thought from

30
00:09:43.320 --> 00:09:58.440
listening to the planning commission, something Diane said that really I think stands true for a lot of things and you can I was going to play it back or record it and play it for you. About the fence issue, she says

31
00:09:58.440 --> 00:10:16.200
when somebody does something wrong maybe you can finish what you said. They they you don't remember saying it. No, I didn't think so. So it's a pretty easy uh ending. When they do something wrong they should

32
00:10:16.200 --> 00:10:31.360
they should make it right. That's I think exactly the word. I'm maybe paraphrasing. >> Oh, I'm I'm okay with that. >> Yeah, you you definitely said it's on record. So when somebody does so just to them words.

33
00:10:31.360 --> 00:10:49.640
I got what? Less than 30 seconds left maybe? >> About 20 seconds. >> 20? I'm looking at each one of you and it's just I I'm I don't I don't get it. So

34
00:10:49.640 --> 00:11:14.880
I really have some questions. >> All right, so Thank you, Jim. Uh moving on, presentations tonight we've got we're going to start off with Toward Zero Deaths from Anna Kelly and Lieutenant Joe Berg. >> Give it a minute. >> Do you need the podium HDMI?

35
00:11:14.880 --> 00:11:32.920
>> It's going. >> Yeah. >> There we go. >> All right. So I was here about a year ago, so I see some familiar faces, but I'm Anna Kelly. I'm with Goodhue County Health and Human Services. Part of my role at Goodhue County is being the TZD Toward Zero

36
00:11:32.920 --> 00:11:49.480
Deaths Safe Roads Coordinator. >> And I'm Lieutenant Joe Berg with the Cannon Falls Police Department. Good to see everybody. >> So, we like to do these presentations to city councils just to update you on what's happening on the roadways in your community and around the county

37
00:11:49.480 --> 00:12:06.280
and to keep the program kind of fresh in your mind and update you what you were doing locally as well. Perfect. So, if you're not familiar with Towards Zero Deaths, the mission is that it's a comprehensive actually statewide program that's focused on reducing roadside

38
00:12:06.280 --> 00:12:21.360
fatalities. So, it's really focused on collaboration. So, taking sides of everything that kind of comes together and making sure that we're putting efforts that are data-driven and best practices and driven by research to

39
00:12:21.360 --> 00:12:38.440
reduce roadside fatalities. We like to say that we have a five e approach. So, it involves law enforcement, engineering, um education and outreach, so that would be my position, emergency medical and trauma services, and everyone else. So, we

40
00:12:38.440 --> 00:12:57.000
include the last e because everyone uses the roads in some way, whether you're pedestrian, you use sidewalks, or whether you're driver and you use the actual road. You might also notice that we use the term crashes instead of accidents. I like to include this in here cuz it's

41
00:12:57.000 --> 00:13:13.839
very intentional. Um we focus on preventing crashes and not focus on accidents. So, we think that um all roadside crashes have some sort of prevention that can be involved, whether it's an engineering point, whether it's

42
00:13:13.839 --> 00:13:32.360
law enforcement, whether it's educating the driver or general public. But, you can tell in our program Towards Zero Deaths, we really think that zero can be attainable with everyone involved. All right. So, why traffic safety matters.

43
00:13:32.360 --> 00:13:48.280
Um last year there was 363 um traffic fatalities, so deaths on the roadways due to traffic-related crashes. And there was about 30,000 serious injuries on the roadside. So, every day that kind of breaks down

44
00:13:48.280 --> 00:14:03.960
to about 170 crashes per day in Minnesota alone, 65 injuries and almost one death every single day. So, these look like numbers, but I also like to give insight that these are real lives. So, one of

45
00:14:03.960 --> 00:14:22.400
or anybody here might know someone that had been in a crash, someone that might have um had a death related to a crash or serious injury. And these are life-altering, not just for the individual, but for the family as well. Now, our most recent statistic is today

46
00:14:22.400 --> 00:14:39.480
there has been 147 traffic-related deaths on Minnesota roads. I looked back year-to-date last year and to this date in 2025, we're at 148 deaths. So, we're about exactly where we were at

47
00:14:39.480 --> 00:14:55.200
last year, um which is good that we're not increasing, but also our focus is to decrease more than just by one crash. So, looking in the next few months by the year-end to really focus on increasing our efforts to decrease those

48
00:14:55.200 --> 00:15:11.920
numbers. All right. I also have this graphic here. So, I know these numbers can be scary, but I do come with some good news today that we're seeing overall decreases. And this is quite remarkable because we

49
00:15:11.920 --> 00:15:29.360
haven't seen a decrease since about 2019. So, around 2020 with COVID and everything, we saw some spikes um in traffic behaviors that led to more crashes, um, but we're now seeing an overall trend in a decrease of crashes.

50
00:15:29.360 --> 00:15:45.880
So, total fatalities are down about 22% um, from 2024. So, with our numbers we have in 2025. And that's the lowest we've seen since 2019. Speed-related crashes are also down 29%,

51
00:15:45.880 --> 00:16:02.240
which is 43% lower than 2021. And then we're seeing a decrease it in unbelted crashes, distracted driving, motorcycle crashes. The one spike that we are seeing is in bicycle crashes. Um, so if you're familiar, there was a law

52
00:16:02.240 --> 00:16:18.080
change in 2023, um, allowing bicyclists to use stop signs as yield signs rather than full stop signs. This could be a contributor. We're also seeing an increase in e-bike usage, um, so higher speed bicycles as well.

53
00:16:18.080 --> 00:16:33.160
So, in 2024, that crash number was about at seven, and then 2025, it was 14. So, about doubled. So, that's kind of a concern for us, and we're looking at doing more bicycle safety. So, I just wanted to show you those

54
00:16:33.160 --> 00:16:49.520
numbers, so you kind of know where we're at right now. Do you have anything to share on that? >> to do the 100 deadliest days. >> Okay, perfect. So, this is another graphic that we have showing from 2017, which is about the start of this program.

55
00:16:49.520 --> 00:17:07.040
You can see we fluctuated some, but finally between 2024, so those last two dots, you're starting to see a dip. So, that is showing that what we've been doing in recent years is working, um, the collaboration and efforts that we're putting in. We want to continue and, um,

56
00:17:07.040 --> 00:17:24.600
make sure we're getting education, more law enforcement out there to continue to reduce those numbers. This is also a graph of or a map of our county. So you can see over there is Cannon Falls. The darker the dot is, the

57
00:17:24.600 --> 00:17:41.040
more crashes there there has been. Um yellow just shows about one crash. Orange is two. So those are the only colors around Cannon Falls area. Um you can see there is a handful of crashes in the Cannon Falls area. Um definitely some

58
00:17:41.040 --> 00:17:59.440
more in other areas, but just to kind of show you overall where we've seen the most crashes. >> I'll pass it off to you. >> So between Memorial Day and Labor Day is what we call the 100 deadliest days of summer. So

59
00:17:59.440 --> 00:18:15.320
um we're seeing a spike in fatal traffic crashes due to increased travel and more teen drivers on the road and risky driving behavior. So during that 100-day window, Minnesota averages over 110 road fatalities. The

60
00:18:15.320 --> 00:18:32.600
primary factors that contribute to these um tragic accidents or crashes are speeding, impaired driving, not wearing seatbelts, and distraction. And distraction being cellphones, eating, or interacting with passengers. So what is

61
00:18:32.600 --> 00:18:48.480
our response to that is having a law enforcement presence. Um so working with the state patrol, the office of traffic safety, um getting our officers trained on how to identify um those areas and focusing on that. As you know, um this

62
00:18:48.480 --> 00:19:03.720
spring we had a month-long focus on seatbelts. We last month was focus on speeding, and we pretty much focus on everything during the 100 deadliest days. So um we encourage motorists to practice defensive driving, giving

63
00:19:03.720 --> 00:19:23.600
themselves extra time in construction zones, and ensuring that the 100 deadliest days become the 100 safest days. >> Okay, and what are we doing in the area? So, last year Cannon Falls High School had a mock crash and this involved um Cannon Falls PD, the emergency

64
00:19:23.600 --> 00:19:42.640
services. We had education as well as State Patrol come to do a presentation. Just one way to get out in the community and focus on those younger drivers. We also do um adult detention center presentations here in Goodhue County.

65
00:19:42.640 --> 00:19:57.400
So, this was from last year. The next one scheduled is next month. Um this is cuz this is a population that isn't getting our general education that we're putting out to the public via social media and other tactics. Um but it is a population that may be getting back on

66
00:19:57.400 --> 00:20:13.600
the roads and at higher risk of being involved in crashes or um impaired driving and seat belt use, distraction, etc. So, making sure that um we're making behavior changes in that population as well.

67
00:20:13.600 --> 00:20:29.680
>> So, just this last week we were able to participate in the summer kickoff as uh Carrie alluded to earlier. Um look at our beautiful booth. If it didn't look like that when you visited, it's because of the wind and the rain. It kind of took our booth down and blew it around

68
00:20:29.680 --> 00:20:46.040
the corner. So, but we were able to get some wind and clear sun and dry up and still interact with the public. So, um and the the picture you see here is uh what it would would be in an impairment goggles and and learning how to stack

69
00:20:46.040 --> 00:21:02.560
cups. And if you'd ask that gentleman how that was, he would say that was difficult. So, showing showing people we actually had a couple people that say, "Hey, I've never drank. What's this like?" And they're like, "Oh man, that's what it's like." Yep, that's what it's like. So. >> Informing or enforcing the perceived

70
00:21:02.560 --> 00:21:18.280
harm if impaired driving was the goal. >> So, last year this is pictures from the fair last year. I will have a seatbelt >> convincer >> convincer at the fair this year, which will uh simulate a crash at 5 mph and

71
00:21:18.280 --> 00:21:36.480
how important that seatbelt is. We did have it at Kickoff to Summer last year and I think we had a a pretty good education on that, but we'll have it all 4 days of the fair, so I look forward to educating the public using that device. So, hope to see everybody there. >> And then we do have an active social

72
00:21:36.480 --> 00:21:52.440
media page on Facebook, Goodhue County Towards Zero Deaths, always sharing different educational informations and events and activities that are happening within the county. And then our Southeast Region has a TZD Steering Committee. If you're interested

73
00:21:52.440 --> 00:22:09.480
in being involved, we talk about traffic trends, um updated laws, regulations, things like that. Um just reach out to me and I'd be more than happy to send the invitation over. And then we also have a Goodhue County TZD Safe Roads Coalition. So, Cannon Falls uh PD is a

74
00:22:09.480 --> 00:22:26.240
um active member of that coalition. We also have engineers that attend and that's where we really focus on our collaborative efforts and talking about um ways to uplift education and enforcement and um reduce those traffic fatality numbers.

75
00:22:26.520 --> 00:22:43.160
And that's all we have. Any questions? >> Have Have you noticed Well, you brought up e-bikes, so that's kind of people newer audiences getting into the driving, but have you noticed that change since like things like Tesla and the automated driving came onto the

76
00:22:43.160 --> 00:22:59.000
scene? Has that improved or changed anything? >> I would I would like to think that that would offset some, but our population continues to grow, so it is a challenge for us to keep those numbers at or a decreasing value. So, all those things,

77
00:22:59.000 --> 00:23:14.760
although for some when when go get a new car, what's the first thing that's going to go? Well, do I really need that? Um and that's where trying to regulate that and making it, "Hey, this is a safety item." Um one of our new vehicles now, it's almost hard to go over the fog line

78
00:23:14.760 --> 00:23:31.800
cuz it keeps you on the road. So, um and then it beeped at me today cuz I wanted to see what this is like, and that's trying to wake up drivers. So, I think these advancements are going to help um save lives on the roadway. >> Okay. All right. >> It reduces some human error. Um

79
00:23:31.800 --> 00:23:48.000
you have the fine line of technology that could fail. I haven't seen an increase of crashes because of that. I know that's as of now rare, but with an increase of those numbers, we might see that. But, there is that human error that gets reduced with that assistive technology.

80
00:23:48.000 --> 00:24:03.840
>> Okay. >> Yeah. >> Thank you. >> Yeah. Any other questions? >> Thank you. >> Thank you for your time. >> Thank you so much. >> All right. [sighs and gasps] Up next, we have the presentation uh Tyler from Abdo Solutions for our 2025

81
00:24:03.840 --> 00:24:23.360
audit. Oops. >> All right. Yeah, thanks for having me. So, my name is Tyler C, um senior audit manager at Abdo, and I'm going to go over the 2025 financial statement audit presentation. Uh so, the audit presentation is meant to be a high-level overview of the

82
00:24:23.360 --> 00:24:38.720
audit. So, kind of giving you the main details that we feel like you should be aware of without getting too lost in the in the full uh breath of the audit report. Uh so, I'm going to go over first all the audit results, and then I'll go over the financial results of all your funds, starting with your general fund, moving

83
00:24:38.720 --> 00:24:55.360
on to your other governmental funds, enterprise funds, and I'll end the presentation with some KPIs. So, our responsibility as auditors is to issue an opinion on the city's financial statements. We are issuing what's referred to as an unmodified opinion, which is a clean audit opinion. So, the

84
00:24:55.360 --> 00:25:10.840
opinion you would be striving for in a financial statement audit. Uh and then we also do some testing around Minnesota legal compliance throughout the course of the audit. So, testing around state statutes that's relevant to the city. Uh and this year we do have one instance of non-compliance to note, which I'll go

85
00:25:10.840 --> 00:25:26.720
over on this slide. Um so, each year we do issue audit findings. Um and the city in 2025 received two audit findings. Uh the top audit finding is the preparation of financial statements, which is a internal control finding and

86
00:25:26.720 --> 00:25:41.960
um really what this finding means is that we as your auditors not only prepare your financial statements, we also perform the audit, uh which is technically an internal control issue. This has been a recurring finding. So, if you've seen this presentation before, you would have recognized that finding.

87
00:25:41.960 --> 00:25:58.200
Uh the second one is the legal compliance issue that I noted on the previous slide. Um it's it's state statutes that when a when a local government entity purchases anything on a credit card, uh there should be an original receipt with all of those purchases whenever possible. Um

88
00:25:58.200 --> 00:26:15.360
so, you know, throughout the course of our audit this year, we did find that there were some missing receipts. Uh and it was considered an issue with the city in 2025. So, that is why we issued that finding. I think the main culprit was the gas cards and not getting receipts at gas stations and things like that.

89
00:26:16.400 --> 00:26:32.760
So, now moving on to the financial results. Um here we're looking at your general fund uh fund balance in comparison to the city's fund balance policy. Your fund balance policy is to maintain a fund balance of 40 to 50% of your following year's budget. And what this graph shows, if you look at that yellow line, is that your general fund

90
00:26:32.760 --> 00:26:50.240
has maintained about 80% of your following year's budget the last couple years. So, you're meeting and exceeding uh that general fund fund balance policy. >> [clears throat] >> This slide here, we're just looking at your budget to actual results in the general fund for 2025. So, on the left you're going to see that budget. Um Um,

91
00:26:50.240 --> 00:27:05.760
the middle you'll see the actual results. And on the right here, you'll see the variance with that final budget. Uh, so your revenues came in about $150,000 over budget, mostly due to things like grant revenues and reimbursements, things like that. Uh, your expenditures were overall very comparable with your

92
00:27:05.760 --> 00:27:20.320
final budget, but did come in about $3,000 over that final budget. Uh, one thing one other thing I'll point out, too, is that the general fund uh transferred out about $845,000 to various capital project funds building up those reserves. So, you'll

93
00:27:20.320 --> 00:27:38.520
see that on a further slide. Uh, but after all that activity, your general fund did increase about $115,000. And that 3.9 million on the bottom of the slide, that's your general fund uh total fund balance as of year end 2025. Couple quick slides here showing your

94
00:27:38.520 --> 00:27:54.440
general fund revenues by type over the last 3 years. So, this just shows, you know, your main source of revenue in your general fund of is of course your property tax levy. Uh, intergovernmental revenues are significant as well. Those would be, you know, state grant revenues, um state, local, federal,

95
00:27:54.440 --> 00:28:09.880
and then the other revenue sources would be things like uh you know, investment earnings, reimbursements, those kind of miscellaneous revenues. And then same format here, but just looking at the expenditure side over the last 3 years. Uh, so your main departments uh

96
00:28:09.880 --> 00:28:24.760
in your general fund would be general government, public safety, public works, culture and rec. You're mostly seeing a kind of a gradual increase most years uh in those departments. And then your main other expenditure is actually transfers out to other funds. So, transfers out to

97
00:28:24.760 --> 00:28:41.280
capital project funds primarily. >> [clears throat] >> Moving on to your other governmental funds, here we're looking at your special revenue funds. Uh, so the city currently has three special revenue funds open, and this slide just shows the change in fund balance between 2025

98
00:28:41.280 --> 00:29:00.080
and 2024. Uh, so overall, your special revenue funds decreased about 50,000 uh between all three of them this past year. Then here just looking at your debt service funds. Uh so currently your the city has four bonds outstanding >> [clears throat]

99
00:29:00.080 --> 00:29:17.160
>> um in the governmental debt service funds. And this slide shows the the cash and assets available in each fund. Uh the bonds outstanding as of 12/31/25. And then the bottom half of the slide shows your uh debt service obligation from 2026 to 2034. Uh and then 2034 is

100
00:29:17.160 --> 00:29:36.040
when um the last of these four bonds uh will mature. Now looking at your capital project funds. So uh city has numerous capital project funds open as of year end 2025. And again this shows, you know, the change in fund balance between 2025 and

101
00:29:36.040 --> 00:29:55.560
2024. Uh so overall your capital project funds increased about 1.4 million and and a lot of that due to um general fund transfers into building up those reserves for future capital projects. So now your enterprise funds. So that the enterprise funds are going to have a

102
00:29:55.560 --> 00:30:10.800
format like this where the top half of the slide is going to show your operating activity over the last four years. So your your operating revenues, operating payments, and debt payments. And then the bottom half of the slide shows your cash balance in each of your enterprise funds. And that black line is

103
00:30:10.800 --> 00:30:26.560
kind of a industry standard target balance uh for the water fund it's uh the your following year's debt service payment. So the water fund pays off the bonds as well. Plus six months of operating costs is that minimum target balance. So um in the water fund you're meeting and

104
00:30:26.560 --> 00:30:45.520
exceeding that target balance, but the other thing to keep in mind with these enterprise funds is the need for capital within those funds and, you know, how expensive some of those utility projects can be. Then your your fund or your sewer fund right here. So, same format um to this graph.

105
00:30:45.520 --> 00:31:04.320
And then again, you know, bottom half of the slide showing that that cash balance. So, um again here you are meeting and exceeding um that minimum target balance, but you know, again that's kind of an operating target. You want to keep the capital needs in mind as well. And then here's your ambulance fund

106
00:31:04.320 --> 00:31:19.520
operating activity over the last 4 years on the top half of the slide. And then your cash balance over the last 4 years on the bottom half of the slide. Here that minimum target balance is 6 months of operating um costs. Um you'll see a uptick in revenue from 2024. That was a

107
00:31:19.520 --> 00:31:36.240
one-time ambulance aid that the city received from the state. Otherwise, that cash is kind of been hovering right about 400,000. It's kind of it's kind of right at that 6-month balance target. >> [snorts] >> And then your storm water fund here.

108
00:31:36.240 --> 00:31:55.800
So, kind of similar story um as the other funds. You are, you know, exceeding that that target balance there. And your recycling fund as well. I think this one's kind of come up in recent presentations, but that recycling fund continues to, you know, build up cash uh

109
00:31:55.800 --> 00:32:14.640
and is still, you know, well above that target balance as well. Then this one here just goes over your total cash and investments on hand um as of year-end the last 3 years. Uh so, your overall cash balance this past year did increase to about 16.4 million. Most

110
00:32:14.640 --> 00:32:32.720
of your cash being in your general capital uh debt service and enterprise funds. And so, here's the key performance indicator section of the presentation. So, what we do here is we're comparing the city of Cannon Falls to uh class 4 cities, which is cities of population

111
00:32:32.720 --> 00:32:48.680
10,000 or less all across Minnesota. And and other cities in Goodhue County, um for some of this data like tax rate we do have comparison data up until 2024, but some of this other data we have to look back a couple years for the most recent, you know, finalized data that we have.

112
00:32:48.680 --> 00:33:05.800
So for like tax rate and really taxes per capita, probably slightly above that class four city state wide average, but then probably slightly below the Goodhue County average for we're looking at those two, but pretty comparable all in all. Uh and then this is we call this slide

113
00:33:05.800 --> 00:33:20.480
the tax rate mix. This one's kind of meant to show like what a taxpayer would see um on a tax bill with all the different, you know, tax payments they make or different tax rates they'd see. So uh just showing the full picture between the city, county, school, and

114
00:33:20.480 --> 00:33:40.720
special district tax rate. Then here you're looking at long-term debt per capita. So again, comparing Cannon Falls to class four and uh cities in Goodhue County. Um so here your debt per capita you've been, you know, steadily paying off um that debt and um you know,

115
00:33:40.720 --> 00:33:57.440
below the average for really both those peer groups there now. And then here what we're looking at is current expenditures per capita and capital expenses per capita. Um so current expenditures basically being your operational day-to-day costs and

116
00:33:57.440 --> 00:34:12.760
then capital expense expenditures would be like your big ticket street projects and equipment purchases and things like that and just kind of how you compare. Um so pretty comparable when we're looking at current expenses per capita, you know, it'd be interesting to see that data I guess move forward a couple

117
00:34:12.760 --> 00:34:32.560
years. Um and then capital expenses, you know, you're going to be up and down a little bit there cuz it just totally depends on when your bigger projects take place and stuff like that. So So that's what I got. We'll open up for any any questions on the audit. >> Done?

118
00:34:32.560 --> 00:34:52.919
All right. All right. That lead us to >> We do need to have a except that. >> Okay. So, uh B1 executive governance summer, we need to get a motion and approval of that. >> Motion. >> Second.

119
00:34:52.919 --> 00:35:08.920
>> Got a motion from Lisa, second from Chad. All those in favor? >> I. >> Opposed? That carries. We have to take a separate vote then on B2 annual financial report. >> So moved. >> Motion from Diane. >> Second. >> Second from Chris. All those in favor? >> I. I.

120
00:35:08.920 --> 00:35:25.560
>> Opposed? Carries. >> Thanks for having me. >> Is there anything else? All right. >> Have a good night. >> so much. Appreciate it. >> Thank you, Tyler. >> All right. That gets us to our consent agenda tonight. Consent agenda items may be adopted under one motion as presented or may be removed for discussion and resolution as council business. Item A, adjust and correct claims the accounting

121
00:35:25.560 --> 00:35:40.720
period ending June 11th, 2026. B, meeting minutes June 2nd, 2026 city council. C, approve CEDA grant writing proposal. D, approve professional service agreement with WHKS for the 2026 lead service line replacement.

122
00:35:40.720 --> 00:35:56.880
Item E, approve fire department rescue one light tower upgrade to LED. Item F, resolution 2879 approving a variance for the 6-ft fence along the public right-of-way. And item G, approve permission to apply for assistance to firefighters grant and micro operations

123
00:35:56.880 --> 00:36:15.480
and safety grant. Is there any of the council would like pulled down into council business? Hearing none, I would seek a motion to approve tonight's consent agenda. >> So moved. >> Motion from Jeff, second from Diane. All those in favor? >> I. >> Opposed? Carries. Gets us to tonight's

124
00:36:15.480 --> 00:36:31.520
council business. Item A, Cannon Falls Mall assessments. John. >> Thank you, Mayor. So, this [clears throat] was uh handed out to you and then emailed to or emailed late. Um some of the items weren't there and then I was on vacation last week to get the the resolution and,

125
00:36:31.520 --> 00:36:48.280
um, memo pulled together. So, apologize for that not getting out earlier to you, but we did talk about this in finance committee and did kind of touch base on it at the last council meeting. >> [snorts] >> Um, so, essentially what we have today is a resolution that is, uh, committing the city to working

126
00:36:48.280 --> 00:37:03.480
towards a settlement agreement with the potential buyer for the Cannon Mall property. Um, the Cannon Mall property, uh, has a settlement agreement, um, that was delivered from an arbiter back in 2001, um, for when that, uh, area of town was

127
00:37:03.480 --> 00:37:18.960
annexed and the water and sewer and street improvements that went in. Um, there were that property was very large, but kind of broken up into different chunks. So, there was, uh, a lot of different components to the settlement agreement that, um, were put into place.

128
00:37:18.960 --> 00:37:35.800
The one that, uh, lingered, most of it, uh, actually has been paid off because different portion of the property is sold, and other parts were paid off over over time. Um, but one of the elements that is still lingering is, uh, what are called the deferred assessments. So, these

129
00:37:35.800 --> 00:37:51.840
were, um, portions of the property that were undeveloped at that time, uh, still undeveloped today, and the way the settlement agreement was written was that the, uh, property owner was not subject to paying, uh, those assessments until the time in

130
00:37:51.840 --> 00:38:08.760
which the property is developed, in which then they would become, uh, payment, uh, they would be due. Uh, so, those properties remained undeveloped. Um, however, the settlement agreement also stated that the interest would be accruing from the time of the agreement until the property developed.

131
00:38:08.760 --> 00:38:23.800
So, since they weren't developed, and it's been 25 years or so since that took place, um, the accrued interest on books, interest for for this is pretty significant, over $450,000. So, um

132
00:38:23.800 --> 00:38:39.080
as property has sold, what is one of the requirements is that the assessments need to be paid and paid in full. So, in this instance, we're in a situation in which those assessments that are due, the liabilities for for them exceed kind of the value of certainly the undeveloped

133
00:38:39.080 --> 00:38:55.560
land. Um and that is problematic for any potential buyers for the property because they're paying off a huge sum of of money that's mostly long- term interest accruals uh built up over time in which that's going to prohibit them from developing um the property in

134
00:38:55.560 --> 00:39:11.160
the future or maintaining the property in the future. Uh so, in this instance, uh we do have prospective buyer. Uh I I won't speak yet to kind of their specifics, but we have uh they do have other properties uh like the mall. I

135
00:39:11.160 --> 00:39:26.520
have other large commercial assets that they've they've purchased. I do have familiarity with the work that they've done in a previous city I worked for. Um so, they do come with a reputation a positive reputation of of owning property like this, maintaining it, and using it for commercial purposes. Their

136
00:39:26.520 --> 00:39:42.520
intent is to maintain and support any of the existing uh tenants that are currently in the property. They have not indicated to us that they want to, you know, kick anybody out or change anything. So, with that >> [clears throat] >> um but in order to facilitate the purchase and do so in a timely fashion,

137
00:39:42.520 --> 00:39:57.160
they're asking us for a resolution for these certain commitments. So, Laura helped uh and team helped me tremendously last week when I was out to kind of confirm with the the potential buyers these terms. So, specifically, it's it's that we would eliminate the

138
00:39:57.160 --> 00:40:14.200
accrued interest and ask for the principal payment of our our principal to be of $118,525 to be paid over 10 years at a 5% interest rate. If they pay it back earlier, there's no penalty on the on those payments. Um they would have to submit to us a

139
00:40:14.200 --> 00:40:30.800
commitment that they're going going um file a building permit to make improvements on the property. Something like the roof uh will deal with more of the specific terms had a meeting with the attorney today, you know, just on how do we ensure that is held accountable and follow through upon, but they have committed that they

140
00:40:30.800 --> 00:40:47.600
were are doing that work. We've actually already seen people on the roof doing assessments and giving them proposals for those costs. >> [snorts] >> And then additionally the private road 64th Avenue path that that extends north and south between Rancho Loco and the

141
00:40:47.600 --> 00:41:04.280
Hickory Drive that that would be conveyed over to the city and that the city could use that for public right-of-way and develop it for public purposes cuz I do think that there is a need for that especially considering the developments that were of the new apartment complex and

142
00:41:04.280 --> 00:41:21.920
potentially another apartment complex in that southern part of town. Be able to interconnect them and kind of work with our active transportation plan in providing alternative routes for non-motorized traffic to for people to to access that area.

143
00:41:21.920 --> 00:41:37.640
So all of those things have been agreed upon by the potential buyer. And if we approve this resolution this should help them to facilitate the the purchase of that property and then we'll work towards the final assessment reassessment agreement I guess

144
00:41:37.640 --> 00:41:58.120
at a at a later meeting. >> Questions, comments, concerns. Dan. >> Um >> [clears throat] >> when we're talking about the portion of land is it just the pathway or is it the land on either side of it? >> It it would just be the pathway and then

145
00:41:58.120 --> 00:42:13.760
likely anything west towards the the highway. >> But not the stuff >> the two there's like 2.6 acres there not the wooded area to the to the east. >> Okay. Is as we're looking at new ownership of the mall and >> [snorts]

146
00:42:13.760 --> 00:42:28.320
>> knowing that it's been kind of a struggle I think for all of us who drive there to keep negotiating potholes in the parking area. Um, is there any thought to saying

147
00:42:28.320 --> 00:42:44.480
should we make uh like a actual public road going through the mall from like White or First Farmers over to the Rust Road and maybe coming down the main drive to the that end of the

148
00:42:44.480 --> 00:42:59.680
>> That wasn't anything that we've discussed in our um conversations with the potential buyer, but the potential buyer did talk about improvements to the parking lot area and and that being something that they would incorporate into the into their plans um in the future. Uh

149
00:42:59.680 --> 00:43:16.920
if if we would do that, we would certainly need to look at and consider um previous I think conditional use agreements that are in place for those storage units because they do sit on the area that would be probably the most um likely area for a public right of way.

150
00:43:16.920 --> 00:43:33.200
>> I I I just look and say, you know, it sounds like a potential new owner might do a much better job, but who knows 20 years from now what's going to happen and and I know the city has had absolutely no control to say fill the potholes, repave the

151
00:43:33.200 --> 00:43:50.360
parking lot. And I I do feel badly for the three businesses that are also affected as well as the renters. >> Mhm. >> So. Is that a thought? >> I was really excited to see cuz just like most people I don't know what's going on with the mall and why they do

152
00:43:50.360 --> 00:44:07.080
have the potholes >> [clears throat] >> and why they haven't been maintaining it, but it makes sense they're not going to put money into it if they're going to have to pay off $500,000 [snorts] to the city. So, I like the idea of you know, lowering it down to the principal, the new buyer comes in, they do the upgrades, they do the fixes, we get that

153
00:44:07.080 --> 00:44:25.360
where there's some type of rolling contract there where they have to meet those requirements and a deadline. So, I was really excited when I read that there could be this could be happening. >> Any other questions or comments from the council? >> [clears throat]

154
00:44:25.360 --> 00:44:40.800
>> Hearing none, I would seek a motion to approve the uh find the verbage. >> The >> Cannon Falls Mall assessment would Do we have to approve the uh >> reassessment agreement. >> reassessment

155
00:44:40.800 --> 00:44:57.120
>> resolution. Yeah, just the resolution number 2880. >> So moved. >> Motion from Diane. >> Second. >> It was a race to the second. I'm going to give it to Chad. Uh all those in favor? >> I. >> Opposed? Carries. That gets us to our reports. We

156
00:44:57.120 --> 00:45:14.240
already have the Chamber of Commerce. So, the EDA met on June 4th. Laura, if you wouldn't mind taking that one. >> Uh the EDA um we had Oh, first I want to actually introduce um Blake Arneson is an intern with CEDA. Um Blake, if you

157
00:45:14.240 --> 00:45:29.760
want to give a I'll let you introduce yourself give yourself a little brief update. >> Hello, my name's Blake Arneson. I'm from Red Wing, Minnesota. Uh I'll be interning with CEDA for the next year. Uh a little bit about myself is I did my undergrad with Saint Mary's University

158
00:45:29.760 --> 00:45:45.400
in business management and health care administration. And then just recently I graduated with a master's in business administration. And I've interned in a couple different places before this. So, I'm have a little bit experience, but I'm still learning every day and I'm looking forward to helping the community.

159
00:45:45.400 --> 00:46:01.560
>> Yeah. Well, welcome. Thank you, Blake. >> And I'm excited to have help. >> Yeah. >> So. Um but he'll be with me 20 hours a week in Cannon. So, that'll be great. >> Great. >> Um but just some EDA updates um at our meeting earlier this month uh we approved eight new purchase agreements

160
00:46:01.560 --> 00:46:16.360
in our new section um that uh that there's asphalt down uh curb gutter and uh they should have small utilities in um and um so gas lines I think should be in and

161
00:46:16.360 --> 00:46:34.040
then um I believe that uh Xcel should be coming in next week think to get it lines and lamp posts up. And then um trying to think what else um where also we've got um WHKS

162
00:46:34.040 --> 00:46:50.800
um putting together um a proposal for us to get going on our next phases. Um only because I technically only have four lots left out of the 27 that aren't under some kind of contract. So, we're moving right along and

163
00:46:50.800 --> 00:47:06.000
don't even have lamp posts up yet, so. Um we're excited about that. So, um otherwise I think that's all I have for tonight. >> All right. Thank you, Laura. Uh Public Works and Park Board also met on June 4th. Jed, if you want to run with that one?

164
00:47:06.000 --> 00:47:21.840
>> So, we only had one agenda item. Um I brought to council three uh alleys that we were going to pave and then we had one uh uh citizen who had uh uh had some questions about it. One of we we actually had that alley surveyed

165
00:47:21.840 --> 00:47:38.400
and realized that it is clear off the mark. It's not even close. So, um what the plan is is we're going to choose a different alley to pave in its stead this year and we're going to straighten that uh alley uh that's just north of Minnesota

166
00:47:38.400 --> 00:47:53.480
Street. Uh we'll get it straightened out this year and get some traffic on it and then it'll get paved next year. So. >> Wonderful. Um we'll just do a quick around the horn. So, Jed, stay with you. Anything else? >> Um just real quick, just an update on

167
00:47:53.480 --> 00:48:10.400
our reconstruction project. They have been hammering through rock for the past 2 weeks. They finally cleared the rock today. Fingers crossed we don't hit any more. It's been really slow going, but um they're past that. They're working their way towards the railroad tracks and then

168
00:48:10.400 --> 00:48:25.920
um should be going under the the railroad tracks next week. Or I I can't remember which the exact day it it was kind of still up in the air, but anyhow um but yeah, it's it is we should be we are on schedule and it is is is going well. It's just we knew it

169
00:48:25.920 --> 00:48:41.520
was going to be tough going through all that rock. It was really deep. Um and then lastly, I just want to recognize Chuck Peterson. He is retiring uh June 26th will be his last day. Um I sent uh council a invitation to uh his

170
00:48:41.520 --> 00:48:58.160
retirement party uh uh 1:00 on on June 26th, so um he is he's done a great job for the the city. He's been a very dedicated hard working um very what's the word uh

171
00:48:58.160 --> 00:49:13.400
dependable um employee and uh he's going to be missed. So he's always here, so um yeah. Thank you. >> All right. Thanks, Jed. Izzy? >> Uh I'll just provide an update. We're

172
00:49:13.400 --> 00:49:28.760
still chugging along with the comprehensive plan. So we had a workshop today with the steering committee um and we'll continue to do a few more events uh with the steering committee and with the public. So still chugging along. So just an update on that. >> All right. Thank you.

173
00:49:28.760 --> 00:49:45.000
Laura / Blake, anything new? All right. Chief? >> Well, Lieutenant Joe covered the uh uh Chamber's fun activities on Thursday with the wind and the rain. Um would have loved to have seen a little bit more crowds after that

174
00:49:45.000 --> 00:49:59.040
cleared up, but uh we understand you know people had already made that decision probably not to come down because of that. Um we will not have a another council meeting before uh the fair concludes. Um so, this will be my opportunity to

175
00:49:59.040 --> 00:50:15.120
remind residents um during fair week, uh lots of things going on. Come down, uh check those out. But, be mindful that uh there will be some impacts on traffic, uh especially on the 4th. Um there's some parking restrictions that'll occur on some of the

176
00:50:15.120 --> 00:50:30.840
main streets going in. Uh residents that have been here for a long time will be familiar with them. Same thing for the parade route. Um if you're not familiar with the parade route, I'm sure the Beacon is going to have a a nice photo of it in the uh the upcoming paper, uh so everybody knows where it is.

177
00:50:30.840 --> 00:50:47.120
Um I'm watching the weather. I'm hoping to um sit on a uh weather service um update this Thursday. I've got a conflict, but I'm I'm hoping I'll be able to still get most of that information. Mostly, I'll be watching the weather. Um

178
00:50:47.120 --> 00:51:03.280
last year, because of the temperatures, we had some heat-related uh events that occurred during the fair. Um and we just uh want to be prepared. So, if it's going to be warm, we just want to remind everybody to make sure you stay hydrated. Uh by the way, hydration may not include adult beverages. Um have

179
00:51:03.280 --> 00:51:19.400
some water, some Gatorade, that type of stuff. Um and uh get out of the sun and into some shade periodically, uh just to lower your body temperature. That's all I have. >> I don't mean to put you on the spot, but I I have had some people ask questions about uh social media posts that cars

180
00:51:19.400 --> 00:51:33.760
are getting broken into. And if you have any tips or anything you can share with the public to >> Sure. Um springtime is always um you know, in our industry, it's cyclical, right? Uh spring is car prowls. Um most of our suspects are usually

181
00:51:33.760 --> 00:51:51.520
going to be between the ages of 12 and 15. They're usually going to be male. Um they're rifling cars, uh stealing stuff from uh center consoles, from front seats. Uh the best thing people can do is to lock your car.

182
00:51:51.520 --> 00:52:06.920
You would be amazed how many cars are not locked in Cannon Falls. Um I would also say one of the good things to do for your home is to remember to lock your doors at night um or when you're away. Um same thing with garage doors, close

183
00:52:06.920 --> 00:52:23.480
them. Um that keeps people out of out of those places. Uh these tend to pop up. They go in uh in spurts. Um oftentimes what will happen is a parent will notice that suddenly uh their child has a about 15 pairs of sunglasses in their room

184
00:52:23.480 --> 00:52:39.400
um and a pile of coins. Um and then we get a phone call and we have a conversation what we suspect is happening. Um we can't account for all 15 of the sunglasses, but we know, you know, two vehicles have lost them. Um a lot of those go unreported. Um somebody will

185
00:52:39.400 --> 00:52:55.440
come out, just think, you know, "Ah, maybe I you know, left it in the house." and then they move on with their day. Um so, when those things occur, uh we try to get uh get them reported so that we can start seeing patterns of areas, times of uh occurrence. Um somebody may start work

186
00:52:55.440 --> 00:53:11.400
at 4:00 in the morning and see somebody out. That helps us know that it's occurring before 4:00 as opposed to happening at 11:00 and being done by midnight because that's what time they have to be home. Um so, those are some of the dynamics on that. If you got any more questions, Council, feel free to reach out to me. I'll try

187
00:53:11.400 --> 00:53:25.720
to answer them. >> I appreciate that cuz I know the social media post was very effective. A lot of people were asking questions about that. Thank you. Sarah. >> Hi, just wanted to thank you um for approving the audit. Um as you may or

188
00:53:25.720 --> 00:53:42.160
may not know, the audit um is a lot of work on a lot of us. And so, I just want to give a shout out to all the department heads for helping when we've um put out requests to them. Um they've been very responsive this year and um helped us get through this.

189
00:53:42.160 --> 00:53:59.320
Um but I really want to say thank you to Michelle Sandeen as well and she her and I work directly together with this audit and we worked many weekends together and many, many, many hours together on this and she's she's just really gone above

190
00:53:59.320 --> 00:54:15.240
and beyond. So, I just wanted to give a quick shout out to Michelle. So. >> Thank you, Sarah. Thank you to Michelle. John. >> I want to echo those sentiments. It is a lot of work on the staff especially during the audit time.

191
00:54:15.240 --> 00:54:31.960
I was telling something somebody just before the meeting that when they are here in person it is even more [laughter] more dramatic, but there's there's things happening from I don't December throughout the the course of the time that they get here late April, May to do the in-person in-person work. So,

192
00:54:31.960 --> 00:54:47.440
it's not just a short-term short-term deal. I want to give thanks again to the audit team at Abdo. They're been very good to work with when they identify questions or problems like they we work towards solutions. So, it's it's not

193
00:54:47.440 --> 00:55:04.000
just oh here here's a here's a fault and here's your finding which you know, I wanted to touch base on as well, but they work towards okay, what are the things that we're going to do to to fix this if if it wasn't an issue or what are what are what caused this in the first place. So, I love that about it

194
00:55:04.000 --> 00:55:18.680
certainly something I try to strive for in in leadership and how we operate in the city, too. So, to address that finding that they found you know, the credit cards and the receipts and it's and it is something that that happened. We don't deny it. We we strive really

195
00:55:18.680 --> 00:55:35.880
hard. I want to give a lot of credit to Sarah and Michelle to on identifying even before it's a an audit finding. They're constantly reminding department heads to remind their employees that hey, we need these things. We need these receipts. Now, this is a really effective reason to show them why.

196
00:55:35.880 --> 00:55:52.520
So, we've talked about that and it's not a resistance thing. It's it's something that's just these times it happens, especially um, as you noted, the gas cards. So you pay at the pump, you know, does the credit card printer work? Um, so half the time, maybe. Uh, and if you don't have an attendant

197
00:55:52.520 --> 00:56:09.240
or the maybe it's after hours, so all of these might be public safety folks that are coming in late at night after shift, it could be that they they can't get a receipt. So we've worked in different ways and practices and procedures that we can um, address that. Cuz the last thing we want is anybody to

198
00:56:09.240 --> 00:56:25.000
suspect that and have reason to suspect that because these purchases aren't getting the receipts that these aren't eligible. We've We dove into those issues and found that they're not uh, we had no reasons to believe that these are uh, issues of um,

199
00:56:25.000 --> 00:56:40.640
of impropriety from employees uh, misusing the gas cards. So I just want to make sure that that was where that we've definitely looked into that both uh, internally and with the auditors uh, as well. So So we do have additional uh, means and functions at which we can

200
00:56:40.640 --> 00:56:56.160
we can do. We have some other ways that we're going to try to to utilize more of our own uh, fuel master systems that we have. So on purchase fuel that we've already purchased. So So just a again, like reminder, these are it's great working with that team because if there's

201
00:56:56.160 --> 00:57:12.720
something that we find, um, you know, we want to find the ways to to solve it and make it better. >> All right. Thank you, John. Laura. >> Good. >> Chris. >> Good. >> Ryan. >> Good. >> Diane. >> I just thanks to the chamber for the fun fest. Um,

202
00:57:12.720 --> 00:57:29.520
I was there when the rain came. >> Thank you for attending. Lisa. >> Good. >> Chad. >> Uh, shout out to Dave uh, from the cable commission. He made a presentation on the on the triad and you'll find it on the uh, the channel if you're watching online right now. Kind of gives a breakdown uh,

203
00:57:29.520 --> 00:57:45.560
general breakdown on what they do back there, and uh the struggles with the equipment, the team, and uh finding the time with just a couple of people working. So, that I shout out to them. And then, uh I'd like to say thank you to Kevin Landry for the Matt Rutz had a

204
00:57:45.560 --> 00:58:00.640
wrestling uh uh camp for the kids a few days this last week, and that was a lot of fun. So. Yeah. >> Awesome. Uh I just want to say congratulations to all the athletes uh from Cannon Falls that made it to state tournaments. Uh baseball was uh a lot of

205
00:58:00.640 --> 00:58:17.720
fun. Um I know that there were a few track and field athletes, and was there a a golfer as well? >> Yep. >> Yep. So, congratulations to everybody. Spring sports uh are now all officially done, so summer has unofficially begun. School's done, sports are done. Summer. So,

206
00:58:17.720 --> 00:58:29.000
uh without anything else, I would seek a motion to adjourn. >> Motion. >> Motion from Lisa. >> Second. >> Second from Chad. All those in favor say I. >> I. >> Opposed? We're adjourned. Thank you, everybody.
