City of Faribault, Faribault Planning Commission Meeting 2025-07-07

The City of Faribault Planning Commission convened to discuss two main agenda items. First, they reviewed and recommended approval of an ordinance to vacate a drainage and utility easement on 20th Street Northwest, related to a property owned by Malgo Auto Body. The commission noted the complexity of historical easements in the area and the challenges in cleaning them up, but found no current utility conflicts. Second, the commission received an update on an Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) for a proposed data center development. The developers requested a two-week deferral to address public comments and amend the EAW accordingly. The commission agreed to table the item until the next meeting. No public comments were made during the session.
