City Council — July 21
The July 21 council meeting centered on the adoption of Ordinance No. 6-2026, which provides for the compensation of elected and statutory officers of River Heights City. A public hearing on the ordinance was the primary agenda item.
The agenda also listed two additional items for discussion: a letter regarding Steve and Susan Robert's pond, and the advice and consent appointment of a new Planning Commissioner. Because only agenda materials are available and minutes have not yet been published, the outcomes of those two items are not yet confirmed.
