The Owen Common Council held their regular meeting on Tuesday, March 25, 2025.
The council approved going ahead with having Cedar Corporation do a new Certified Survey Map of the Business Park as soon as the contract for the new business is signed. This will result in the west side of the park being divided into one 15 acre lot and two 10 acre lots. The cost will be $3,500. Utility access for the new business will be off of Blackhawk Drive. They then approved allowing Mayor Scott Jalling and Planning Committee Chairperson Ray Kilty to sign the contract with the new company as soon as it is available. It will be on the next council agenda for an update and the business will be announced after the contract is signed.
The building permit was put on the agenda as an information only item. All city staff now understand the permit process.
