  • Metro counties, cities hold off on hiring even as tax bases recover

    Dec 7, 2015

    When residents walked into Burnsville’s community development office, a receptionist used to be waiting to help with questions about permits or licenses. That was before the recession. Now, people must make an appointment or apply for permits online. The administrative job was one of 20 positions the city eliminated in 2009 — and there are no plans to add them back. http://www.startribune.com/metro-counties-cities-hold-off-on-hiring-even-as-tax-bases-recover/360745671/...

  • Medical marijuana maker Vireo Health sets its sights on FDA

    Dec 7, 2015

    As an emergency room doctor, Kyle Kingsley felt frustration at seeing the drug-addicted patients return to his ER over and over, trying to find a doctor who would prescribe them more opioid painkillers. Those pain pills cause twice as many deaths in Minnesota as street heroin, even though both are made from same plant, the poppy. Now Kingsley is hoping to use a different plant — cannabis — to divert pain patients from opioids to marijuana drugs. But the ambitious plan will require approval from one of the toughest bureaucracies on the pla...
