The Crookston City Council voted to accept the resignation of Jeff Shumridge effective Sept. 5, 2025, after the clerk presented resolution 3.02. Council members moved and seconded the resolution and the clerk called the roll; the motion carried.
During public comment, Ward 1 resident Bishop Jensen asked, "I'm just curious as to what is going to be our timeline for a new director's placement and how that is gonna look as far as this community goes to expect a timeline." He also asked whether the outgoing director would assist in placing a new director.
Council members indicated that public comment on this separate agenda item had already been provided earlier in the meeting, but the resident's question was noted and entered into the record. The council did not provide a detailed timeline for hiring a replacement at the meeting.
The clerk announced the motion carried. No immediate selection was made at the meeting; follow-up and transition planning were discussed later under interim administrator arrangements.
