VISITOR PRESENTATIONS.
Sara Thomas, 2555 Long Acres Drive, read an email she sent to Mayor Ryan and city staff in
May 2024 with several concerns about the Galpin Road project. She commented that it was
difficult to exit their neighborhood during peak traffic hours. She expressed fear of an accident.
She did not understand why they could not have traffic control and asked why a temporary stop
light would not be permitted by MnDOT. She stated that the Fawn Hill solution was great, but it
would be nice to have additional measures taken for Highway 41.
Mayor Ryan stated that she would follow up with Ms. Thomas after the meeting.
