The Morrison County Board of Commissioners is setting the tone for another week of civic engagement with a slate of meetings that are open to the public, running from April 27 through May 3. Details provided on Morrison County's official government website outline a packed agenda that encompasses a wide array of critical county matters from urban planning to education reforms.
Notably, on April 29 at 8:30 am, the commissioners plan a planning session in the County Board Room at the Government Center located in Little Falls, MN, which will be followed by a 6:00 pm gathering on April 28 for the PC/BOA also in the County Board Room, clearly signaling their commitment to transparency by convening in spaces familiar and accessible to constituents. The urgency of housing concerns will be addressed on April 30 at 9:00 am at the Housing Rural Authority's office, and later the same day at 7:00 pm, they will join citizens in the Little Falls High School Auditorium to give an update on the developments regarding local schools. May 1 will see the leadership convene offsite at Sourcewell in Staples, MN, for the MOCO Leader meeting, while the week rounds out with a focus on sustainability and waste management at the TSWAC, Landfill in Little Falls at 8:30 am on May 2.
Accessibility remains a cornerstone of these meetings, with Morrison County officials urging any residents who need accommodations to participate in the meetings to call 320-632-0296 at least 48 hours prior to the meeting, ensuring an inclusive approach to governance. This proactive stance on accessibility showcases the county's dedication to serving its diverse community effectively.

As illustrated by the county's publication, this week is a testament to the diligence of the Morrison County Board of Commissioners in addressing the multifaceted concerns that touch the lives of their constituents—the schools that educate their children, the lands they live upon, and the structures that govern the very rhythm of their day-to-day existence.
