Summary
At its meeting the Willmar City Council adopted the 2025 fee schedule, approved a 2025–2027 criminal prosecution services contract, authorized advertising for bids on the outdoor rink pavilion, and approved 2025 Sunday liquor and THC license renewals; motions passed with recorded roll‑call counts.
The Willmar City Council recorded several formal actions during the meeting. Key outcomes:
- The council adopted the 2025 fee schedule by resolution (roll call recorded 8 ayes, 0 nos). - Council approved renewal of criminal prosecution services for 2025–2027 (motion passed 8–0). - Council approved authorization to advertise for bids on final plans and specifications for the outdoor rink pavilion (motion passed 8–0); staff projected a base estimate around $1.4 million and will return with bid results. - The council approved 2025 Sunday liquor license renewals for listed applicants (except the VFW, which declined renewal) (8–0 roll call). - The council approved renewal of THC product licenses for existing holders so they can continue sales into 2025 amid state regulatory uncertainty (8–0 roll call).
These actions were routine approvals and procurement authorizations; staff will follow up with contract administration, procurement materials and return to council with bid tabulations and funding recommendations for the outdoor rink project.
