The Turtle Lake City Commission approved a series of routine administrative actions at its April 13 meeting, including contracts for audits, legal counsel, lagoon maintenance and a property transfer.
Commissioners voted unanimously to engage DMC Auditing and Consulting for a preliminary engagement of $17,000. The commission also voted to retain Jim Wilson of Wilson in Garrison for legal services after noting that Wilson had offered a lower rate and been responsive to the city’s needs.
On lagoon maintenance the minutes record Teamlab’s fee to bring a boat in at $800 per lagoon; commissioners voted to continue working with Teamlab to clean and maintain the lagoons.
The commission accepted a bid tied to demolition costs of $10,000 for a city-owned lot on Kundert Street and approved moving forward with property transfer paperwork. Two other city-owned properties were discussed: Walnut Street (demo estimated at $8,500) had received no bids and will be returned to the July agenda; Lincoln Drive had bids listed for $5,000 with the bidding period open until May 1 and will appear on the May agenda.
Commissioners also approved collaborating with Municipal Impact, Inc. to build a new city website that will be ADA-compliant by 2027; the minutes state the new site is expected to go live by June. The meeting concluded after routine reports and adjournment; the next regular meeting is scheduled for May 18, 2026.
