At its Oct. 10, 2024 meeting, the Boxholm City Council recorded that the DNR submitted an inspection report requiring the city to submit a plan for replacing the Sewer Operator.
The minutes state the DNR also recommended removing burrowing animals at the lagoon and eliminating sources of inflow and infiltration (I/I) within the collection system. The council did not record a formal vote on the DNR report in the minutes.
The inspection directive triggers a compliance obligation for the city; the minutes do not specify who will prepare the required replacement plan or a deadline for submission. The council’s minutes note the DNR’s recommendations but do not record further technical detail, cost estimates or a timeline for implementing animal-control or I/I mitigation steps.
The council’s minutes show this item as an administrative matter arising during the regular meeting; the next procedural step recorded is the requirement to submit the plan to the DNR, with no motion or assignment recorded in the minutes about who will draft the plan.
