This year the City combined the two weekends <br />into one and had a continuous flow of residents for the majority of the day. Struve stated the weather may <br />have hampered things a little bit since people may not have gotten outside to clean up their yards. <br /> <br />Struve noted load restrictions have been taken off the roads. <br /> <br />*13.

They will be starting an emergency food <br />support program here in the community. It is not intended to replace the current food shelf located in <br />Mound but will offer emergency food to local residents and will include food from the donation garden. <br />WeCan is also going to be opening up a thrift store and the target will be to inventory school clothes. <br />Levang stated both of those are advantageous resources for the community and are the result of receiving <br />a substantial grant to expand their facilities. <br /> <br />CITY ADMINISTRATOR’S REPORT <br /> <br />14.
