The Blue Earth City Council breezed through business at their latest meeting, which took place on Tuesday evening, July 6. Public comments were the main source of discussion at the meeting, which progressed with impressive efficiency.
Blue Earth Area Schools superintendent Mandy Fletcher opened public comments.
“I am here as a citizen, not as a superintendent,” Fletcher first clarified.
Fletcher then presented an idea to the council regarding a meaningful way to observe Sept. 11 this coming fall.
“I came across a 9.11 kilometer bike ride done by a community to commemorate 9/11 on social media,” explained Fletcher.
