Summary

City administration has largely moved to a new city hall location at 1441 Civic Way, and the St. Peter City Council voted to recess into closed session to discuss the potential transfer of property at 105 East Brown Street; administrators said they likely would not return to action that night.

The St. Peter City Council on July 13 received a report from the city administrator that most departments have moved to a new municipal location at 1441 Civic Way and that the city is operational there for emergency services and transit.

The administrator said administration staff will finish moving over the next days, interior signage will be installed shortly and the council will likely begin holding meetings at the new location in August. He asked the council to consider a resolution to recess into closed session to discuss a potential transfer of property at 105 East Brown Street in St. Peter.

The administrator said negotiations on the property are ongoing and that it was unlikely the council would return to action that night after the closed session. The council voted by roll call to approve the resolution to recess into closed session (DeVos, Johnson, Perez, Scharstrom each recorded as 'Aye'). The chair announced the council recessed to closed session at 7:24 p.m.

No further details on the property transfer or next steps were presented in open session; staff indicated more work and negotiations were expected before any return to public action.
