City Council Notes-Nov. 20, 2012



A part of the OACCT's Public Policy efforts for 2012 is for volunteers from the Public Policy committee attend both City and County meetings and report back on items that are of interest/concern to business.


Items of note:

1) Cable agreement - Jaguar has expressed interest as well as Hickory Tech.  However Hickory Tech has put in major infrastructure recently elsewhere, so looking at next 3-5 years for Owatonna.

2)  Flood Grant Demo - Two additional homes have been purchased for demolition - net effect to the budget = $0 (there will be a timing difference of payment of costs and reimbursement under the grant)

3)  Farm Land Lease - YOY increase in income is due to 5 parcels going to bid.  Based on bids received, remaining parcels will be renegotiated by city and may increase income further.
