✓ Decided: Council adopts assessments for Saratoga St project, approves $65K holiday decorations

The Marshall Common Council adopted the special assessment for the Saratoga Street Reconstruction Project (Resolution 4542) with a 6-1 vote, after a public hearing where a property owner questioned his assessment. The council also approved purchasing holiday decorations for $65,307.90 (6-1) and accepted donations for them. A motion to purchase a track skid loader for the wastewater department failed (3-4), and the item was sent back for new quotes. The council also approved several other items, including an insurance renewal, a liquor license, and a stormwater study agreement.
