2015 Audited Financial Statements:

A presentation of the City’s 2015 audited financial statements by Matt Vos of Abdo, Eick, and Meyers.

Pedestrian Underpass:

The City Council will consider approving plans and specifications for the construction of a pedestrian underpass.  The underpass would be located along Jonathan Carver Parkway, just north of Ironwood Drive.  Construction is anticipated to begin in 2016.

Carver County Road 40 Turn-back:

The City Engineer will provide a status report on a possible turn-back of Carver County Road 40 to the City of Carver.  A “turn-back” would make Carver County Road 40 into a City street.  This would mean the City would be responsible for maintaining the street by plowing, crack-filling, and so on.  Carver County Road 40 runs along sections of Old Carver Road, Broadway, and Main Street West.  Carver County and the City of Carver are anticipating a negotiated turn-back once the City hits a population of 5,000.

Certified Levee Study:

The City has received preliminary notification from the US Army Corps of Engineers of potential funding for a certified levee study.  The City Engineer will be updating the City Council on what to expect over coming months.
