Litchfield City Council Approves Airport Grant Agreement

The Litchfield City Council approved of an airport grant agreement on Monday evening. A rehabilitation project is underway on the airport building and it should be completed next month.
Mayor Ron Dingmann says the FAA is covering 90% of the cost for the $221,500 project – or $199,350 and the City and State are each responsible for 5% – or $11,075 each.

Mayor Dingmann says the Council approved of a deferred loan agreement for the Midtown Lofts project through Minnesota Workforce Housing; and approved of allowing Council Member Malinda Larson to attend meetings for the rest of 2024 and 2025 remotely, as needed, while tending to a family medical situation. He says public hearings were also held Monday evening regarding the cannabis ordinance, and for the sale of the Golf Club House which is delaying the contract-for-deed to May 1st of 2025.
