City Council Minutes <br />April 21, 2025 <br />Page 6 of 7 <br />offered by the city. <br />Councilmember Wagner stated that the point of the trail was for safety, as County Road 30 is a <br />dangerous road to walk on. <br />Mayor Dietz asked if the city gave them their asking price, could other property owners come back and <br />ask for a higher amount? City Attorney Brooksbank stated they could not ask for a higher price if they <br />had already signed. <br />The Council agreed to stop the trail at Concord Street. <br />Mr. Femrite added that it is still a goal and desire for a future connection. The city may have another <br />opportunity if Sherburne County works on that section of the road. <br />11.
