Mayor Dan Sutton informed Council that he and Administrator Cohl Turnquist had met with several Flandreau Residents with questions about the Flandreau Police Force. Sutton is recommending that a Public Safety Commission be formed which would include members of the City Council, Community, Police Force, Mayor and City Administration. The Public would be able to share concerns with the Public Safety Commission members who can make recommendations to Administration and the City Council. More information about the forming of a Public Safety Commission will be addressed at future Council meetings and the Mayor is hoping to have the Commission in action by June or July. Mayor Sutton also asks the public to be patient as summer activities, such as the opening of the Aquatic Center and Summer Rec Camps, may be pushed back due to the extension of the Flandreau Public school year. Sutton informed Council that the Flandreau Development Corporation will host their Annual Meeting on Wednesday, April 19th at 3:00 at JJ’s Coffee Shop.

City Administrator Cohl Turnquist informed Council that he is hoping to open the Aquatic Center around Memorial Day, with limited hours, due to the extension of the Flandreau Public School year. The City is in need of more lifeguards, and anyone interested should fill out an application on the City’s website, or speak to Aquatic Center Manager Lori Williams. He also stated that Summer Recreation Director Emma Peters will have the Summer Rec Schedule finalized soon. Turnquist encourages Council Members and residents to support the FDC by attending their Annual Meeting on April 19th at 3:00 at JJ’s Coffee Shop. The Council was informed by Turnquist that Wyatt Resmen has accepted another position and the City will be advertising to hire a Journeyman/Apprentice Lineman to replace Resmen. Funds were approved in the 2023 Budget to hire American Legal Publishing for the Recodification of the City’s Current Ordinances and Turnquist has received the first draft, which is being reviewed by City Attorney Corey Bruning. The Fire Protection Contract with Moody County was discussed and Turnquist shared the Contract sent to the County in September was not signed. A new Contract was sent back to the City and the Council will need to take action on this matter at the next Council meeting. Turnquist reported that the Fire Station Construction Contract has been signed by both WS Construction and City Officials, but not by Rural Development. There are still a couple items needed from WS Construction before RD will sign, but Turnquist is hopeful a preconstruction meeting with all parties will be held soon. Administrator Turnquist shared that the Airport Board will be meeting on April 24th at 4:00 at the City Office.
