The City of International Falls council unanimously rescinded Resolution 37‑2026 and approved a corrective resolution to reissue notice of a proposed street vacation in Francon's Third Division, moving the public hearing to Monday, July 6, 2026, at 5:00 p.m.
A city staff member told the council the previously scheduled hearing for June 15 could not proceed because staff "did not have enough time to get it published" and therefore could not provide required notice to abutting property owners. The staff member asked the council to rescind the earlier resolution and reissue a corrected resolution with a July 6 hearing date to meet publication and notification requirements.
A council member moved to rescind Resolution 37‑2026; the motion was seconded and the council voted unanimously to rescind. The council then considered and approved a corrective resolution declaring intent to vacate certain streets and rights‑of‑way within Francon's Third Division and calling for the public hearing on July 6 at 5:00 p.m. That motion also passed unanimously.
The mayor confirmed that all council members were present for the special meeting, and, after the two motions were approved, declared the meeting adjourned.
The corrective resolution directs staff to proceed with publication and notification consistent with state and local notice requirements so that abutting property owners receive formal notice ahead of the July 6 hearing.
