OTTER TAIL COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS Dated: July 26, 2022 Attest: l-1 · ~ 1-1-~ Nicole Hansen, Clerk PUBLIC HEARING REGARDING TWIN SPRUCE FARM NORTH FEEDLOT At 10:08 a.m., Chair Murphy convened a public hearing held for Twin Spruce Farm North Feedlot on behalf of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) under M.S. 116.07, Subd. 7(1). Arnold Gruenes is intending to re-permit the existing feedlot on county highway 51 in Perham, MN. The MPCA is responsible for issuing a permit for the request and the County provides a local forum for the public to express their opinions regarding the project. Mr. Gruenes provided notice in the newspaper of the affected area and date and time of the public hearing. Notification to neighbors within 5,000' was not needed due to this being a re-permit with no expansion. Chair Murphy opened the meeting to public comment summarized as follows: Property Owner Edwin Kyle: Mr. Kyle, a nearby property owner who grows and maintains crops for the farm, supports the Twin Spruce Farm North Feedlot and its benefit to the area. He states the feedlot brings many services to the area including plumbing, heating, welding, and irrigation in addition to boosting the local crop market. The farm has also hosted Breakfast on the Farm to bring in the community to provide Page 14 of 21 Board of Commissioners' Meeting Minutes July 12, 2022 education on farming and agriculture as well as show how the property has changed from an empty facility to a thriving operation. Mr. Kyle expressed his desire to see the feedlot continue to operate. Commissioners commented animal agriculture is very important to the local economy and they extended support for the re-permit. At 10: 10 a.m., Chair Murphy closed the public hearing. The approved minutes of the public meeting will be forwarded to the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency.

LAKE KORONIS TOUR Commissioners Bucholz, Mortenson and Rogness along with County Administrator Nicole Hansen and the Otter Tail County Aquatic Invasive Species Task Force participated in a bus tour to Lake Koronis in Paynesville, MN to view the Starry Stonewort infestation.
