Council approves custodial contract change, library story-walk permit and designates polling places
Summary
Council approved a custodial contract amendment to increase weekday summer cleaning, granted a temporary permit for a library story walk at Rice Park, designated polling places required by the state, and received an informational utility commission update.
Granite Falls City Council handled several routine items during the meeting, approving a small contract amendment, granting a short-term park permit and completing required election housekeeping.
Custodial contract: Council approved an amendment to the existing custodial contract to add an extra weekly cleaning for the arrival/departure building during May–September for an additional cost (staff estimated roughly $500 annually). A council member moved and the council approved the amendment by voice vote.
Library story walk: Council approved a temporary permit request to place small story-walk signs along the Rice Park sidewalk from October 8–22; staff said the signs are temporary and the request had been grant-funded. Council approved the use permit by voice vote.
Designated polling places: As required by state rules, the council adopted a resolution designating city hall and the KCC as polling locations for local elections; this was treated as routine housekeeping and approved by voice vote.
Utility commission: Council received an informational update from the utility commission; no action was required.
These items passed with voice votes and staff will implement the approved changes and permits.
