MINUTES OF THE ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING September 26, 2022 6:00 o’clock p.m. _____________________________________________________________________________________ Page 13 of 13 ask Mr. Erickson in the beginning what can we do for you as a City. Mr. Erickson told him “leave me alone.” Dave Williams, 2055 River Hills Road wants to commend the City Council for the work they are doing. He saw an article in the Star Tribune which he thought was a hit-piece on the City Council and was perhaps sponsored by certain individuals. He wants the Council to know that he is more sure the Council is doing the right thing because the Star Tribune does not like them. If there is an organization dedicated to trying to dismantle good things people are doing, Mr. Williams thinks that is one of them. Regarding January 6, if it had been done by the other side of the political spectrum it would have been viewed as a magnificent showing of their views. MAYOR/COUNCIL REPORT Printup thanked Johnson for his presentation and noted it is homecoming week. Crosby commended the firefighters who are present tonight noting they really appreciate everything they do, how they put their lives on the line for the community and at very little paid on-call pay. Johnson thanked Seals noting they have put a lot of time into trying to understand the contract with Long Lake and he hopes Long Lake sees it that Orono is trying to do right by everyone. He noted political signs are being stolen and taken down. Mayor Walsh thanked the fire department for their service. He shared about Mound homecoming the previous week and the upcoming Orono homecoming. He thanked Johnson for the work on the negotiations and he appreciates all the work they have done.
