Winsted Town Crier for city council meeting Sept. 1

WINSTED, MN –  The Winsted Town Crier is a written summary of the upcoming  6 p.m. Tuesday Sept. 1 Winsted City Council meeting

The Tuesday, September 1st, City Council meeting will be highlighted by a proposal from Joe Johnson to open up a skydiving business at the Winsted Airport. Johnson would operate his business out of an existing hangar at the airport and expects most of the skydiving activity to occur during the weekend. The proposed drop zone would be situated in an open field between the current hangar buildings and CR 5. At the September 1st meeting, the Council will determine if they want to have the City Attorney and Engineer assist in preparing an operational agreement for the applicant to run the skydiving business out of the airport.

In another matter, the City Council will take action to adopt their maximum tax levy amount for 2010. The City Council annually adopts a maximum tax levy in September before settling on a final tax levy and budget in December. The proposed tax levy for 2010 shows a less than 1% (.6%) increase over the adopted 2009 tax levy and once adopted can only be lowered by the City Council before the end of the year.

Also on the agenda, the Council will discuss setting a public hearing for a new ordinance that would require a landscape escrow (deposit) payment for building permits on new construction in Winsted. The deposit would be returned to the applicant only after the landscaping work had been completed on the property. The new ordinance is being proposed to deal with a rise in incomplete landscaping work on new construction sites.

In other matters, the Council will consider adopting a resolution of support for the paving of the Luce Line Trail from Winsted to Hutchinson using State Bond proceeds, review quotes for the repair of a section of Zion Avenue and take action on a liquor license violation at Big Al’s Bar.

The Winsted City Council will meet to discuss these items at their meeting on Tuesday, September 1st at 6 p.m. in the Winsted City Hall Council Chambers. If you need more information on an issue, call City Hall and ask for the City Staff Report (not all agenda items have a corresponding report) which will provide you with background and financial information on the topic. Meetings are broadcast live on Winsted Channel 10 at 6 p.m. and replayed on Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday at 10 a.m., 7 p.m., and 10:30 p.m. In addition, pre-recorded City Council meeting videos can be viewed on the City of Winsted’s website at www.winsted.mn.us.

The “Town Crier” is created by City Administrator Brent Mareck using the preliminary agenda for the upcoming City Council meeting. For a complete listing of all agenda items, please visit www.winsted.mn.us or pick an agenda up at City Hall.
