Mendota council approves conduit bond resolution for HourCar after brief hearing
Summary
After a short public hearing with no public opposition, the Mendota City Council adopted a resolution approving a conduit bond for HourCar. The resolution passed unanimously 5-0 on Aug. 12, 2024.
The Mendota City Council voted 5-0 on Aug. 12 to adopt a resolution approving a conduit bond for HourCar after a brief public hearing.
Dan Burns and Paul Schroeder told the council the HourCar transaction presented in January was canceled because of complications with the originally planned property, but that they had since identified an alternate site for the business. Mayor Mielke opened the hearing at 7:35 p.m.; with no public questions or comments, the hearing closed at 7:36 p.m. Mayor Mielke then read the resolution and moved to adopt it; Council Member Golias seconded the motion, which the council approved unanimously.
The applicants described the earlier January effort as "going a little south" because of property issues and said the new site is suitable for HourCar’s needs. The resolution was presented and approved without amendments.
No public testimony was recorded in opposition. The council did not specify in the meeting record the exact location of the new site or the size of the bond; those details were not provided at the hearing and are not specified in the meeting minutes.
The council proceeded to other agenda items after the vote. The public hearing and resolution adoption took place during the Aug. 12 meeting at the Mendota VFW.
