Summary

At its Oct. 2 meeting the council approved the consent agenda, agreed to waive October rent for Apartment 7 due to delayed renovations, set quarterly fire/rescue reporting, approved a fire-prevention-week ad, and acknowledged the 2025 budget copy and Bluffview Manor P&L in the packet.

Brownsville’s City Council conducted routine administrative business on Oct. 2, approving the consent agenda and several operational items.

On a motion by Pam Walhovd, seconded by Tim Klug, the council approved the consent agenda, which included claims payable and minutes from the Sept. 4, 2024 meeting.

The council addressed a rent-waiver request from Cliff and Laura Campbell for Apartment 7 after renovations were not completed in time for move-in; the council agreed to waive the October rental payment by consensus. The council also agreed by consensus that monthly Fire & Rescue reporting of calls and drills is unduly time-consuming and that quarterly reports will be sufficient going forward.

Clerk/Treasurer Jenna Knight requested publishing a salute to the fire department for fire-prevention week; Tim Klug moved, seconded by Bill Fitzpatrick, and the council approved placing the ad. Steve Schuldt noted that a copy of the proposed 2025 budget and a Bluffview Manor profit-and-loss statement for the quarter ending Sept. 30 were included in the meeting packet. The council also consented to POW/MIA banners being displayed on city property.

The meeting concluded when Mayor Jean Meyer moved to adjourn, Bill Fitzpatrick seconded, and the council adjourned at 9:00 p.m.
