MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />April 24, 2023 <br />6:00 o’clock p.m. <br />_____________________________________________________________________________________ <br /> <br />Page 10 of 10 <br /> <br />talk and done what you're supposed to do to protect your community. He had another Coffee with the <br />Mayor on the second Wednesday of the month. It's always interesting. If you'd like to come in May that's <br />going to be May 10 at 9 a.m. with coffee and donuts. <br /> <br />Walsh said the Orono Foundation just had their yearly bash last weekend. They raise money for the <br />schools for all the stuff that the schools don't have money for. He said COVID had hurt the event the last <br />few years but it's starting to come back and they raised a lot of money. Walsh named several members of <br />the high school speech team who had qualified for State and National competition and congratulated <br />them. The boys basketball team took third in the State, so hats off to them as well to get that far. Walsh <br />said his own daughter, who is a level nine gymnast, was the State champion and her age level. She also <br />went to regionals a week and a half ago and won the regional championship of the seven-State area. In a <br />few weeks she will go to nationals. So it's an exciting time with a lot of stuff going on. You got to see a <br />couple things we got to talk about tonight with the lift stations and all the things that we've done, the <br />Public Works facility that's going up, all the things that we're doing to make sure Orono was taken care of <br />going into the next century on the budget. Don't believe anything you hear on social media. It's all in our <br />budget. It's been done well. Walsh gave a quote from Theodore Roosevelt, “It behooves every man to <br />remember that the work of the critic is of all together secondary importance, and that in the end, progress <br />is accomplished by the man who does things.” <br /> <br />ADJOURNMENT <br /> <br />Walsh moved, Crosby seconded, to adjourn the meeting at 7:32 p.m. VOTE: Ayes 4, Nays 0. <br /> <br /> <br />ATTEST: <br /> <br /> <br />_____________________________________ _______________________________________ <br />Anna Carlson, City Clerk Dennis Walsh, Mayor
