The Hibbing City Council approved three items on the consent agenda at its special meeting on Wednesday: raffle permits for Iron Range Boxing to hold a raffle at Palmer’s of Hibbing on Oct. 11, 2025, and for the Merry Masons to hold a raffle at the Masonic Lodge on Oct. 31; and a special-event permit for the Chamber of Commerce and the City of Hibbing to host a trunk-or-treat event on the front lawn of City Hall on Oct. 25.
Councilor Hoffman Sockerman moved to approve the consent agenda as written; Councilor Bayless seconded. The council approved the consent agenda by voice vote with no discussion recorded.
The consent items were listed at the start of the meeting and were disposed of before department committee reports and budget-item resolutions. No conditions, fee waivers, or objections were recorded in the meeting minutes or the transcript excerpt reviewed.
After approving the consent agenda, the council proceeded to take up two preliminary levy certifications for the Range Regional Airport Authority and the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA). The council adjourned shortly after completing those items.
