Fairmont City Council Works on Solution for City’s Tree Dump

(Fairmont) The Fairmont City Council is working to address ongoing overcrowding and maintenance problems at the city’s tree dump. Public Works Director Matthew York says crews maintain the site two to three times a week, but the lack of weekend staffing has contributed to access problems. Having employees on site both Saturday and Sunday could cost between 12-hundred and 24-hundred dollars. Council members discussed adding Saturday staffing and scheduling a work session to develop a long-term solution, including the possibility of burning accumulated debris. In other business, the council declared buildings at 112 and 114 West Fourth Street hazardous and ordered them repaired or demolished. The council also approved a transmission line easement with Southern Minnesota Municipal Power Agency, and they directed the $14,000 payment for the easement to be put toward improvements at Bull Head Park.
