The city council held a goal setting session earlier this year. They reviewed past accomplishments, discussed future opportunities and challenges, and created action items through 2024. Below is a summary of the four strategic priorities. View the complete goals at shoreviewmn.gov.

• Organizational excellence

Ensure Shoreview’s culture and values continue as key staff and council leaders retire. Attracting and retaining a high quality, skilled workforce as an employer of choice is important to the city’s future.

• Community and economic development

Continue to enhance the quality of life in Shoreview through park, housing, and economic development. Remain a leader in sustainable practices and policies.

• Inclusion and Engagement

Strengthen commitment to fostering inclusion and incorporate strategies across all city functions. Expand communications and engagement with residents and community members.

Shelly Myrland appointed to Shoreview City Council

Earlier this year, the Shoreview City Council appointed Shelly Myrland to serve in the vacant seat left by Mayor Denkinger. Councilmember Myrland served on the economic development authority since 2014 and the economic development commission since 2017.

Councilmember Myrland has a passion for serving. From being a Sunday school teacher, PTA chairperson, chamber board member, Boy Scout committee member, rotary club member, and many volunteer opportunities and initiatives, she has lived the rotary motto of service above self. She says her mom was her role model for serving and volunteering, while raising a family and working full time, she always found room for more.

Shelly works in community banking and currently serves as the senior vice president for F&M Bank. As a community banker, she’s been able to serve the community by helping people achieve their financial goals. Community banking prides itself on giving back. She is proud of her bank's outreach and volunteering by encouraging employees to get involved and give back to the community.

Shelly and her husband, Bob, have three children, all of whom have attended Mounds View schools. The youngest is currently a junior at Mounds View High School. They love the trails, parks, and many outdoor amenities Shoreview offers. When asked what she looks forward to in this new role, Councilmember Myrland said, “I feel so blessed to live in this vibrant, safe, and welcoming community. I look forward to listening to our residents, serving the city with our new mayor and current council, and working with city staff.”

Watering tips

Save water this summer while keeping your lawn healthy! Healthy lawns only need around two inches of water each week. That’s about 20 minutes of watering twice a week. Be sure to water before 11 am or after 5 pm.

Water quality report

Shoreview monitors city drinking water each year, as required by federal law. The results for 2020 show no contaminants detected. View the full report online at shoreviewmn.gov/water-quality-report. Contact Jamie Meyer, utility supervisor, 651-490-4661 with questions.

Keep Shoreview’s water clean

You can help keep our water clean! Keep grass clippings and leaves out of the street and make sure dog waste gets picked up. Keeping these things out of our storm sewers keeps our water cleaner and healthier.

Irrigation controller rebate

Are you considering upgrading your irrigation system? Qualify for a rebate by purchasing a WaterSense certified, WiFi-enabled smart irrigation controller. Rebates cover 75% of the pre-tax cost of the controller, up to $150. WaterSense certified irrigation controllers can significantly reduce water consumption and overwatering by watering only when needed. Grant funding is provided through the Met Council by the Clean Water, Land & Legacy Amendment. Visit shoreviewmn.gov/watersmart to apply.

Minnesota recycling works

Have you ever questioned if recycling is worth it? Short answer: yes. Beyond saving energy and protecting natural resources, recycling also supports vital industries.

Recycling is the process of collecting materials that would otherwise be thrown away and turning them into new products. Our cans, bottles and paper are dropped off at a local facility where people and machines sort the recycling into material types which are sent to many different companies:

• Paper and cardboard are made into newspapers, toilet paper rolls and cereal boxes at five paper mills in Minnesota.

• Cartons like juice boxes are sent to a company in Wisconsin that makes a material for new paper products.

• Aluminum cans get turned into new cans, wire, siding and more at plants in the South.

• Steel cans like those used for soup are made into steel beams in Chicago.

• Plastic bottles with a number 1 like water and soda bottles are shipped to other states to be made into new bottles, deli food containers and carpet.

• Plastic containers with a number 2 like milk jugs are transformed into low-maintenance lumber by companies like Avon Plastics in Paynesville. They are also made into more bottles or irrigation tubing for farmers.

• Cottage cheese and other plastic tubs with a number 5 are used to create food containers, car parts, paint cans and more by companies in other states.

• Glass bottles and jars are sorted by color in Saint Paul. Clear glass goes to Anchor Glass in Shakopee to make condiment bottles. Brown glass is sent to Illinois to make beer bottles.

Our recycling is wanted by many companies in our state and across the country. Help support local recycling business:

• Stick to the basics: Recycle the items listed above.

• Keep it loose: Empty recycling into your bin – no plastic bags.

• Check with your recycling hauler or Ramsey County (RamseyRecycles.com/AtoZ or 651-633-3279) for everything else.
