The Fillmore County Journal reports…

At the July 14 Harmony City Council meeting, the consent agenda was approved and included the minutes of the special and regular meetings on June 9, the claims and June checks, the investment report and cash balances, the budget year-to-date, and an annual step increase for Financial Clerk Karen Apenhorst.

And here’s the information on data centers…

The second draft of the Data Center ordinance is ready to review. City Attorney Greg Schieber recommended holding another joint planning session to go over it. The council approved a joint planning session on August 5 at 6 p.m. at the community center. The council also requested that it be posted on the city’s Facebook page as well as the usual posting spots. To avoid the meeting going too late into the evening, questions and comments from the public will not be accepted at that time, but there will be forums for those at a later date.

The City Council met in March 2026 to discuss the data centers. The Fillmore County Journal reported back then…

Members of the Harmony City Council, the EDA, and the Planning and Zoning Commission met on March 18 for another joint planning session to continue discussing the creation of a city ordinance to govern a data center if one were built in Harmony. As of now, there is no development agreement or specific company that is planning to build a data center in Harmony, but there are multiple companies interested due to the fact that MiEnergy and Dairyland Power Cooperative have excess energy available. The joint meetings between the three groups ensures that everyone is on the same page throughout the process of drafting the ordinance and for full transparency to the public. At each of the meetings, the public is welcome to ask questions and give input. Currently, the first draft of the ordinance is in its end stages.
