Thanks to federal and state funding, the Glencoe Airport Commission passed pavement maintenance and improvement projects on to an upcoming city council meeting for formal approval.
The airport commission met Thursday, May 21, and endorsed a bid from Fahrner Asphalt Sealers of Plover, Wis. for crack sealing work on the runway and taxiway area. The bid of $33,940 is below the engineer’s estimate of $41,750. It will be funded by a FAA grant. The recommendation for approval will be forwarded to the Glencoe City Council for formal approval.
Barb Schutte recalls the time she spent with Roger Becker driving around a portion of the community looking at potentially blighted properties in New Auburn. The job of trying to clean up unsightly areas of the community wasn’t their favorite part of their jobs as city council members, but it was important work to making Auburn a better place for residents to live.

Councilors unanimously agreed to send them out. They still have the opportunity to decline approval if the bids and quotes come back too high.

The Silver Lake City Council voted to move forward with discussion to pursue a police department merger with the City of Lester Prairie at its meeting Monday, May 18. The council’s idea would be to have one chief with two precincts with full and part-time officers in each community.
The two cities have discussed various ideas over the last couple of months as to how the two departments might come together.
Last week, the Glencoe-Silver Lake School District received word it might be able to conduct summer recreation, sports and educational programs. Now all the district needs to do is figure out how to do it within the state’s guidelines.
How do you run a summer STEM program efficiently and economically when you can’t have more than 10 people involved? Or is it 250 people?

It’s a team with an intermittent past, one that has been in and out of the headlines and in and out of state tournament play. Today, the Glencoe Brewers just want to play.
The Brewers, like the other town baseball teams in Minnesota, await word from the Minnesota Baseball Association as to when its players can take the field for games during the coronavirus pandemic. Players from some area teams have been informally practicing in small groups. They are hoping the next round of relaxed guidelines will allow them to hold games, possibly beginning next month.
