Board sets road-tour and community-based-services special meetings for spring
Summary
The Pine County Board scheduled a northern road tour on May 13 and a community-based services meeting on March 25, with a possible Osprey Wild Center location and invitations to township and city officials under consideration.
The Pine County Board voted to schedule two committee-of-the-whole/special meetings: a road tour on May 13 at 10 a.m. beginning at the North Pine Government Center and a community-based services special meeting on March 25 at 10 a.m., location to be confirmed.
David (county staff) said the May 13 event will start at the North Pine Government Center and proceed to a northern-county road tour. He said the March community-based services meeting could be held at Osprey Wild Center if the facility is available and that the county could invite townships and cities to participate as it has done in pre-pandemic outreach efforts.
Commissioner Roger Nelson and other board members discussed potential follow-up special meetings, including an economic-development focused session in the third district likely to be scheduled in June. Board members asked staff to coordinate date options, noting typical board scheduling preferences.
The board approved the two dates by roll call. Staff will confirm the community-based services meeting location and publicize invitations to local jurisdictions.
Why it matters: Off-site meetings and road tours give commissioners a chance to see infrastructure needs firsthand and gather local input in places outside the government center. The community-based services meeting is intended to bring providers and residents together to shape services in northern areas of the county.
