Summary
Public Works asked the board to set a special meeting in Featherstone Township to consider revoking County Road 1; the board agreed to coordinate with the township and scheduled the meeting for Feb. 11 at 6 p.m.
Public Works staff asked the Goodhue County Board of Commissioners to set a special meeting in Featherstone Township to consider revoking a segment of County Road 1 that the county has maintained since 2006. The board agreed to coordinate the meeting with the township and set it for Feb. 11 at 6 p.m. at the Featherstone Township hall.
The Public Works representative explained the segment’s history — that it diverged from the City of Red Wing and runs through parts of Featherstone Township — and said the township indicated Feb. 11 at 6 p.m. would be an appropriate time for a joint meeting. A commissioner moved to set the meeting and the board approved the scheduling by voice vote.
Why it matters: The vote sets the procedural step required to consider revoking county maintenance on the road; the special meeting will be held in the township so residents and the township board can participate directly.
Next steps: The county will coordinate the details with Featherstone Township and place the revocation consideration on the special meeting agenda.
