2023 Budget - Work Session:   The Finance Director reviewed the 2023 Budget with the City Council and presented a draft of the Truth In Taxation presentation that will be shared at the December 5 meeting.  Truth In Taxation is an opportunity for property owners, residents, businesses, and all other interested stakeholders to learn more about and share perspectives with the City Council on the proposed budget and property tax levy for 2023.

CSAH 40 Turn Back Project – Work Session:  The City Engineer updated the City Council on agreement negotiations with Carver County, which would result in the City of Carver maintaining and controlling CSAH 40, which includes parts of Old Carver Road, 4th St. E., Broadway, and Main St., from CSAH 61 to CSAH 11 (Jonathan Carver Parkway). 

Delinquent Bills:   The City Council certified delinquent bills and acted to specially assess unpaid amounts to the property owner’s property taxes.

Fire Department Retirement Plan:   The City Council, with support from the Carver Fire Relief Association, approved a new retirement program for the Fire Department. The current retirement plan is managed by the Carver Fire Relief Association, an independent non-profit organization with member Firefighters, managed by a third-party investment advisor.  The program will now transition to the Statewide Volunteer Firefighter (SVF) Plan, which is managed by the State of Minnesota’s Public Employees Retirement Association (PERA).
