Welcome!

I’m Dr. Kimberly Wilburn, your Minnetonka City Councilor At Large.  For the past four years, I’ve worked to represent you as Minnetonka faced the challenges of COVID, celebrated our achievements in greenspace management, and came together at ice cream socials and movie nights.  I appreciate you sharing your expertise and perspectives on issues before the City Council.  We have worked together on issues, and you have emailed, called, or texted me to let me know your position on opportunities and issues we face as a city.  Your willingness to share your ideas and knowledge is appreciated. I have learned so much; it has made me a more effective Councilor.  

My husband, Carsten, and I continue to enjoy our Windsor Lake/Runnymeade home.  In the summer, you’ll see us out biking and visiting the Farmer’s Market. My children grew up in Minnetonka and still live in or near the city. I now have two grandkitties in addition to the cats in my household.   

These past four years have demonstrated the importance of community collaboration – hearing all concerns, discussing how a decision will affect different groups, and seeking the best resolution.  Your input is even more important now as we navigate economic uncertainties.  

My commitment remains:  to work collaboratively with neighbors, workers, and businesses to create a Minnetonka where everyone can thrive by:  1) bringing  people together to hammer out ideas and find solutions; and, 2) being vigilant about ensuring the city is on a stable economic footing so  that we are able to weather any economic chaos that may be caused by decisions made at the national or state level.
