Deephaven council approves consent agenda, including police server and street change orders

The Deephaven City Council unanimously approved a multi-item consent agenda on June 15, 2026, endorsing a Police Department server replacement quote, a retroactive replacement of Lift Station 9’s pump and change orders to the 2026 street improvement project.

Councilmember Tony Jewett moved to approve the consent agenda; Councilmember John Studer seconded the motion. Mayor Pro Tem Emily Scherschligt and Councilmember Tom Erdmann joined Jewett and Studer in a 4–0 vote to carry the motion.

Approved consent items listed in the minutes included: minutes from the June 1 workshop and meeting; payment of claims; 2026 election judge compensation; special-event permits for Cottagewood Store, Thorpe and the Minnetonka Yacht Club Fourth of July events; retroactive installation of Lift Station 9 pump replacement; Police Department server replacement quote; a resolution amending the Deephaven fund balance policy; 2026 street improvement project change orders (clay trench, light pole relocation and a sidewalk extension on Minnetonka Boulevard); and Carson and St. Louis Bay milfoil treatment.

City staff had discussed the Police Department server specifications and estimated costs during the preceding workshop; the formal motion in the council session approved the server replacement quote but the council minutes do not list server technical specifications or dollar amounts. Where the minutes do not provide numerical details, the record is listed as 'not specified.'

The council did not take separate roll-call votes on individual consent items in the published minutes; the single motion and vote applied to the full consent agenda. The action clears the listed items to proceed to the next administrative steps identified in staff reports.
