City completes contract to acquire south-third electric territory from people’s co‑op
Summary
The city administrator reported the city has completed a contract to acquire the south third of Kasson’s electric territory from the people’s co‑op; staff said the transition of service territory will occur in the coming months and will affect customers in South Fork and Windsor Court subdivisions.
The Kasson city administrator told the EDA that the city has completed a contract with the people’s co‑op to acquire the south third of the city’s electric territory.
"The city has just completed its contract with the people's co‑op to acquire the south third of the city of Kassen," the administrator said during the report. Staff explained that customers in the South Fork and Windsor Court subdivisions—currently members of the co‑op—will transition to city electric service in the next couple of months as the territory changes hands.
The administrator and members did not provide detailed operational timelines or customer-notification schedules in the meeting; staff said some changes will be required during the transition.

No immediate action or vote was recorded by the EDA on the acquisition during this meeting.
Staff advised they will provide further operational details as they are finalized and coordinate customer notifications before the service change.
