City Council June 15, 2026

The City Council meeting of Hastings on June 15, 2026, included several procurement and contract-related discussions. The council approved the 2025 comprehensive financial report, highlighting the city's sound financial management and audit results. A significant agenda item was the approval of a Metropolitan Council Cooperative Construction Agreement to coordinate sewer infrastructure installation alongside the planned Trunk Highway 61 project, with Met Council funding the design and construction. The council also authorized a contract with WSB for engineering design and construction support services for the sanitary sewer main replacement project, with a not-to-exceed amount of approximately $595,000. Additionally, the council addressed a public safety licensing matter, ultimately affirming the denial of a tobacco license renewal for Speedway West Store 4486 due to multiple compliance check failures over recent years, reflecting enforcement of city code and public health priorities. No other major procurement actions were noted during the meeting.
