RE: November 2022 Administration Report
Election Day
Last week’s general election, yielded record voter turnout for a mid-term election in Scandia. 3,113
voters casted ballots during this election. The following is a summary of the results for City Offices
as reported from the Minnesota Secretary of State:
Vinterlights and the Holiday Shopping Extravaganza
Preparations are underway for this year’s event which will be held Sunday, November 27, 2022 at the
Scandia Community Center.
Gateway Trail Project
Staff met with project partners next week to finalize the Scandia Gateway Trail Project schedule.
Work on the project should begin early next year with wetland delineation of related to the Oakhill
Road Realignment. $100,000 is available to carryout planning and preparation work, but approx.
$270,000 remains as a funding gap. A request was submitted to Washington County to see if they
would be willing to provide a match to cover this difference as part of the public comment process for
the County’s Capital Improvement Plan, so there will be more on this to come. A joint powers
agreement should be arranged between the City, County, and DNR regarding the administration of
the project.
