Fairmont HRA Receives Additional Funds Due to Error

(Fairmont) The Fairmont Housing and Redevelopment Authority has approved an increase in funding for improvements at Friendship Village. The Publicly Owned Housing Program grant was originally approved for one-point-nine million dollars. However, an error in the project figures left out some work, including plumbing, sewer lines, patio replacements and sidewalk widening across all 115 units. Minnesota Housing approved an additional 200-thousand dollars, bringing the total grant to 2-point-1 million dollars. The HRA board unanimously approved the updated grant. The board also discussed the proposed Jameson Bush Mill Circle housing development. Plans call for 28 one-story modular homes, built in two phases of 14 homes each, around a single street and cul-de-sac. Board members also discussed seeking city assistance with infrastructure costs. No action was taken, but the project could come before the City Council at its December 14th meeting.

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.
