Morrison County officials have a week packed with public engagements as they prepare to navigate a series of meetings that will address various community interests. Residents of Morrison County should make note of the events listed in the County Commissioner Public Notice for the week of May 4th to May 10th, with the promise of decision-making and discourse on several key issues at the forefront.
Following the start of the week, on May 6th at 7:00 am, county staff will gather for a Staff Appreciation Breakfast in the County Board Room at the Government Center in Little Falls, MN. Later that morning, at 9:00 am, the Board will reconvene for a Board Meeting in the same location. For those who cannot attend in person, details for joining via a TEAMS meeting are available on the county's website.
Crucially, at 10:00 am on May 6th, the board will conduct a Public Hearing to amend the Cannabis Ordinance, which has been a point of contention and debate within the community. The implications of any amendments may significantly affect local regulations and enforcement around cannabis. The county's website encourages community participation and provides instructions for those wishing to engage with the public hearing virtually.
The week's scheduled meetings conclude on May 8th at 6:30 pm, with a Trails Meeting at City Hall. Outdoor enthusiasts and public works advocates alike have expressed interest in this session, which could influence the future of the area's recreational infrastructure. For residents with accessibility needs, the county requests a 48-hour notice to accommodate participation in the impending meeting, as detailed in the public notice.
