Emily City Council February highlights

According to an unapproved summary of the Feb. 10 meeting of the Emily City Council, the city will hold two public information meetings to discuss the reconstruction of Highway 6 through town. Representatives from the Minnesota Department of Transportation will attend the meetings, which will be Thursday, Feb. 26. The first meeting, which will be for businesses, will be at 4 p.m. in the Emily City Hall Council Chambers. The second will be at 5:30 p.m. for residents in the Emily City Hall Gym.

No decisions were made at the February Planning and Zoning Commission meeting due to a lack of quorum. All February agenda items will be discussed at the March meeting.

The council approved the registering of up to three septic pumping companies to dump into the city sewer. The cost will be $30 per 1,000 gallons of waste. The contracts can be terminated at any time at the city’s discretion, based on wastewater pond levels.
