Osseo takes next step in Boerboom Park master plan

Two houses owned by the city of Osseo will soon be removed next to Boerboom Park. On Oct. 26, the City Council approved demolition specifications to remove those homes, a bid package, bid solicitation and contract execution in the amount of $8,867. These two homes, at 25 Fourth St. and 417 First Ave. Northeast, are located on the east side of the city block with the park. Alyson Fauske, city engineer with WSB, said there were two other homes to the west that were removed in 2022. The city has been working on purchasing the homes next to Boerboom Park when they went on the market for sale. The plans are for the city to create a larger park area taking over the entire block area. No confirmed plans for a new park layout have been approved at this time. During a work session on Oct 26, Fauske said early this year, WSB completed an asbestos assessment of both homes. “Those homes are now vacant,” Fauske said. “Staff wanted to see if the council would be interested in getting quotes to remove those remaining [homes].” Councilmember Mark Cook mentioned for the public why the council was making this decision. He

Deb Haaland and Peggy Flanagan Mark Their Historic Wins in Intentional Earrings

Last night, the 2026 midterm election results delivered plenty of historic firsts. It was a particularly powerful night for Native American representation: Democrat Deb Haaland became the first Native American woman to be elected as Governor of New Mexico, while Peggy Flanagan—the current lieutenant governor of Minnesota—became the first Native woman to win the U.S. Senate seat in her state. (And there could even be a third victory for the Indigenous community today: at the time of publishing this story, Alaska’s Mary Peltola is currently leading the race for a Senate seat, too.)

County restores AIS funding, cuts custodial staff jobs

Carver County commissioners addressed two administrative budget recommendations at their Oct. 20 meeting. One related to the county’s aquatic invasive species (AIS) program, the second to custodial services. At a meeting in September on the county’s preliminary 2027 budget and levy, funding for the AIS program was eliminated after the state cut its contribution to county AIS programs by half — from $140,000 to $70,000 — to Carver County. However, at last Tuesday’s meeting, that program was restored after new funding surfaced from a combination of additional contributions from lake association partners and the reallocation of some funding from the Carver County Water Management Organization. Also, potentially additional funding from the city of Chanhassen which has Lotus, Lake Riley and several other lakes within its boundaries. In restoring funding, commissioners and program administrators highlighted the value of the AIS program, including watercraft inspections, education and awareness, and AIS monitoring and control. Regarding the second budget conversation, commissioners voted 4-1 to proceed with an administrative recommendation to subcontract additional county building custodial work at an anticipated 2027 budget savings of around $89,000. The move would eliminate two custodial positions and involve an amendment to expand contracting of custodial services with City
