26 05 01 Public Information Meeting

This City of Moorhead public information meeting held on April 2, 2026, focused on a major stormwater resilience infrastructure project aimed at reducing flooding risks from intense rain events. The project involves replacing existing storm sewers with larger pipes, removing and replacing pavement, curbs, gutters, and driveway aprons, as well as converting a parking lot into a dry stormwater retention pond. The city is collaborating with Minnesota State University Moorhead on the pond location and expects most construction to be completed within 2026, with final completion by June 2027. The meeting addressed project impacts on parking, garbage collection, mail delivery, and driveway access, and provided contact information for residents to stay informed and report infrastructure features like sump pump or irrigation lines. While no specific contract awards or vendor selections were mentioned, the presentation outlined the phased construction approach and community engagement plans related to this capital improvement project.
