From the meeting
The council approved execution of a $250,000 Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (MNDNR) Local Trail grant for a portion of Songbird Trail in cooperation with Freeborn County. The first construction pieces named were Fountain Street to Highway 13, Sunset Street to County Road 74, and four bridges. The grant was already awarded, so the decision is now about grant execution and project delivery.
A seller would want to follow the funded trail build and bridge work.
