   Essential Services Study Update and Discussion

   Consultant Craig Rapp of Rapp Consulting Group presented preliminary findings from the Essential Services Study, which classified all 152 City of Richfield services into seven categories based on legal mandate, community expectation, and funding structure. The Council discussed the classification framework and requested more detail on Public Safety cost breakdowns, funding sources for high-cost services, and regulatory versus statutory distinctions, but took no formal action. The full report and final findings are expected at a future Council meeting, likely September 22, 2026.
