All essential public services <br />were being maintained. The City was following public health experts’ advice. There had been <br />50 Governor’s orders so far, and the City was using them as guidance. The Stay at Home Order <br />was extended to May 18. Some businesses in Hugo were open, and outdoor recreation areas <br />were open with guidelines. Staff had been working remotely, but Public Works’ employees <br />were getting back to their regular shifts this week with guidelines to minimize contact among <br />employees. The Lions Club was considering whether to cancel or possibly postpone Hugo Good <br />Neighbor Days in June. Property taxes were due May 15, but late penalties would be waved for <br />60 days. Street projects were moving forward as well as the water tower project, which was <br />expected to be completed in October. Bear encouraged small businesses to go to the Washington <br />County Community Development Authority for information on business resources and the Open <br />to Business Program. He shared information on several community service organizations that <br />provide support to residents. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Minutes <br /> <br />HUGO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />REMOTE MEETING <br /> <br />MONDAY, MAY 4, 2020 – 7 P.M.
