Crystal is developing its first-ever Climate Action Plan—Resilient Crystal 2035. Meetings to share progress and gather feedback from residents are March 21 and May 23.

The City of Crystal joined Cities for Safe and Stable Communities, a nonpartisan coalition of Minnesota local governments working together to address operational and economic instability impacting cities across the state. The Crystal City Council joined the coalition on Friday, Feb. 13. By joining the coalition, Crystal adds its voice to a growing group of local governments calling for the immediate de-escalation of Operation Metro Surge and for a return to predictability and stability for residents, businesses, and local institutions.

The City of Crystal is upgrading water meter radio transmitters throughout the community at no direct cost to homeowners. As work progresses, residents may notice members of the Public Works team on their property to complete the installation. Most upgrades will be quick and non-intrusive, and staff will identify themselves when onsite.
