• Nisswa City Council to consider vote of no confidence or censure of mayor (pineandlakes.com) — Nisswa’s city council is weighing whether to pursue a no-confidence vote or formal censure of Mayor Jennifer Carnahan after resident complaints and concerns about her conduct at local businesses and online. At a packed special meeting, council members criticized ongoing conflict and turnover at city hall, while Carnahan, who did not attend, later rejected calls to resign and framed the dispute as political retaliation over taxes and spending.
