Chairman Darrell Seki's State of the Band Address We have a strategic plan. For the first time since we started talking about it nearly twenty years ago, we have our first strategic plan.

PAUL -- The walleye-based economy around Lake Mille Lacs is “hurting,” a county leader told lawmakers earlier this week as they discussed a $30 million financial aid proposal. “We’re hurting,” Mille Lacs County Commissioner David Oslin told a House committee Tuesday. “We’ve dropped over $26 million in property value.” Some resorts have seen occupancy drop by 60 percent in the last few years, said Karen McQuoid, a member of the Mille Lacs Area Tourism Council. http://www.bemidjipioneer.com/news/region/3995201-lake-mille-l...

Maple syrup is among one of the oldest commodities produced in the United States. Northeastern Native Americans managed maple groves, tapped trees and gathered sap to make syrup when European explorers first arrived and there are many who carry on this long standing tradition to this day. Brett and Brenda Kent are probably best recognized in Park Rapids as beekeepers but they also dabble in “maple syruping.” Brett Kent began harvesting maple sap last year and this last week he and his wife Brenda were kind enough to share the experience. htt...

The lobbyist of the public imagination is decked out in Gucci shoes and a bespoke suit, arguing on behalf of a corporate behemoth or powerful labor union. But plenty of lobbyists work for slightly less glamorous clients: the cities, counties, school boards, watershed districts and other government entities that spend millions every year lobbying the Legislature. In other words: Government lobbying government. http://www.startribune.com/governments-spend-millions-lobbying-government/373685161/...
It’s a scenario no one wants to imagine — an active shooter in the building, stressed children and panicky teachers hurrying to lock doors. A Burnsville custodian has come up with a device that he thinks can help schools caught in such a crisis. Mark Glende’s stretchy black device is an elastic piece with two bands on the end that can be fastened on both the inside and outside door handles. To use it, teachers lock their doors in the morning and hook the elastic piece over the latch so the door pulls open and closed. http://...

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that a Nebraska town of mostly non-American Indian residents is part of the Omaha Indian Reservation – a decision that has tribal members in Wyoming’s Wind River Reservation optimistic for a similar outcome in a case involving Riverton. The 10th Circuit Court of Appeals is weighing the case of Wyoming versus the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, which ruled in December 2013 that Riverton is part of the reservation. The state disagrees. http://trib.com/news/state-and-regional/govt-and-...
