Votes at a glance: Minnetonka City Council approves consent items, Hidden Valley plat and DEI commission reappointment
Summary
At its June 23 meeting the Minnetonka City Council approved a multi-item consent agenda, a public‑hearing plat for Hidden Valley, and reappointed a youth member to the DEI Commission. All items passed by recorded roll-call votes with unanimous support.
The Minnetonka City Council voted on several routine and substantive items on June 23. Key outcomes are summarized below.
- Consent agenda (items 10a–10d): The council approved four consent items on a single roll call. Items included: an urban-county consortium CDBG consolidated-pool opt-in resolution (10a); preliminary and final plat for Tammy Addition, a two-lot subdivision at 15503 Robinwood Drive (10b); an ordinance amending several sections of the zoning ordinance pertaining to interim uses (formerly listed as 10d, moved to consent as 10c after agenda adjustments); and a resolution requesting funding from the 2026 Minnesota state capital budget (10d). Councilmember Calvert moved approval; Councilmember Wilburn seconded. Roll-call vote: all members present voted yes; motion carries.
- Public hearing and plat approval (item 13a): The council approved the preliminary and final plat, floodplain alteration permit, and vacation of easements for Hidden Valley Third Addition at 16515 Hidden Valley Road. Councilmember Calvert moved; Councilmember Romaley seconded. Roll-call vote: unanimous yes. (See separate article for details.)
- Appointment (item 15a): The council approved the reappointment of Joaquin Pliego (name as provided in staff report) as the young-adult representative to the city’s Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Commission for a one‑year term effective July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2026. The mayor moved the appointment and Councilmember Calvert seconded. Roll-call vote: unanimous yes.
All recorded votes called by the city clerk showed all council members voting in favor for the items listed above; no recorded no votes, abstentions, or recusals were recorded in the transcript for these items.
Clerical note: Staff moved one consent item (preliminary and final plat with easement vacation for Hidden Valley) from the consent calendar to a public hearing (item 13a) because city code requires a public hearing for easement vacations; staff said public notice had been provided and the agenda order was corrected.
