At the Brainerd City Public Works Committee meeting members approved seeking an administrative search warrant for 711 F Street NE, awarded the Brainerd Public Library improvements contract to High-tech Construction of Brainerd, and agreed to place a roundabouts discussion on the full council agenda.

Key formal actions taken by the committee:

- The committee approved staff’s recommendation to obtain an administrative search warrant to abate junk and debris at 711 F Street Northeast; motion moved by Jeff and seconded by the Chair and carried by voice vote.
