Council approves consent agenda including hires, audit services and support for stormwater grant
Summary
On July 15 the council approved a consent agenda that included offers to hire Andrew Keller (Finance Clerk/Treasurer) and Kimberly Lenarz-Greenwaldt (City Clerk), contracted 2025 audit services with Abdo, and a resolution supporting a BWSR stormwater grant application for the Montgomerie Avenue area.
The Deephaven City Council unanimously approved a consent agenda on July 15 that bundled administrative actions, event permits and grant support.
The consent motion, moved by Councilmember Steve Erickson and seconded by Councilmember John Studer, included approval of the July 15 meeting minutes, verified claims, the Deephaven Beach Memorial special event permit, and moving the MCE Ice Fishing special-event permit to New Business at Councilmember Tony Jewett’s request. The consent agenda also approved awarding 2025 audit services to accounting firm Abdo, approving a resolution supporting a Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR) stormwater drainage improvement grant application for the Montgomerie Avenue area, and offers to hire Andrew Keller for the Finance Clerk/Treasurer position and Kimberly Lenarz-Greenwaldt for City Clerk. The council also accepted the resignation letter from City Clerk Rachel Myskevitz.
Councilmember Jewett noted repeated applicant requests for event-fee waivers during discussion of the MCE Ice Fishing permit; he recommended the city stop waiving fees and charge applicants consistently, but the minutes record no policy change at that time.
The minutes indicate unanimous approval of the consent agenda (Ayes: Carlson, Erickson, Jewett, Scherschligt and Studer). Further implementation steps (start dates, contract terms with Abdo, and details of the BWSR grant application) were not transcribed in the minutes.
