The Crookston City Council met on Monday night holding the second reading and final passage of an ordinance amending City Code Chapter 11, entitled “Land Use Regulations” (Zoning) by changing the city map. The property was changed from R-3 (multi-family) and FR (Farm Residence) to R-2 (single- and two-family) for the area encompassed by Nature View Estates explained interim City Administrator Angel Weasner. “That is to approve changing the zoning in the Nature View Estates Plat 5 addition,” said Weasner. “We were changing some Farm Residence to R-2, single-family, multi-family dwellings, and the park land to make sure it’s all the same zone.”
The consent agenda includes the approval of the March 23 meeting minutes, approving bills and disbursements in the amount of $275,396.35, appointing Phil Huck and Lynn Willhite to the Library Board, and amending the council meeting schedule to the correct year of 2020. There is also a resolution to enter a Joint Powers Agreement with the Region 3 Homeland Security & Emergency Management Joint Powers Board, joining with 14 other counties and cities to share resources during emergencies and a resolution ordering the preparation of a preliminary engineer’s report for the Eickhof Boulevard street extension from the end of the current pavement to Fisher Ave for the Nature View Estates development.
The final item on the consent agenda was a donation from Grove Mechanical/Lennox and Valley Electric for the installation of an air filtration system to the Crookston Police Department valued at $3,230 said Weasner. “There was an air filtration system that the police department was looking at the cost had not been budgeted,” said Weasner. “So, Grove Mechanical/Lennox and Valley Electric are being very generous in donating the air filtration system to the police department.”
