This Century-Old Minnesota Meat Market Still Does Things The Old-Fashioned Way

Some of the knives behind this butcher counter have been slicing meat for decades. Not years. Decades. That alone made me curious. The shop sits on the exact spot where a meat market first opened in 1891, and it never moved. Here in Minnesota, the butchers still cut by hand...

Seat Cover Solutions project takes another step forward

MONTICELLO — Plans for Seat Cover Solutions’ proposed $11 million headquarters and distribution center in Monticello took another step forward Oct. 26, as the City Council approved a preliminary plat for the development. The approval comes just two weeks after the council endorsed a revised state grant application for the fast-growing automotive accessories company, which recently doubled the size of its proposed facility from 55,000 to 110,000 square feet. The development is planned for approximately 11.6 acres in Otter Creek Business Park, where Seat Cover Solutions intends to consolidate its warehouse, distribution and office operations. The proposed building would include 18 loading docks and approximately 4,775 square feet of office space, with room for future office expansion. The facility is expected to accommodate approximately 40 employees. In a separate action Oct. 26, the council also approved removing existing drainage and utility easements to allow two parcels to be combined into one property for the development. Required easements will be reestablished as part of the new plat. The plans also call for a separate easement to protect an existing wood-chip trail connecting Chelsea Road to Bertram Chain of Lakes Regional Park. Founded by Minnesota entrepreneurs Grant Pawlak and Patrick O’Donnell, Seat

Stellis Health plans to join CentraCare in 2027

MONTICELLO — After 75 years as a physician-owned medical practice, Stellis Health is preparing to become part of CentraCare, a move that could bring changes to patient billing and insurance arrangements while opening the door to new investments in Monticello and Buffalo. The two organizations announced the proposed affiliation Oct. 21, saying Stellis physicians, advanced practice providers and employees would become part of the regional health system, which already operates CentraCare’s Monticello Hospital. Stellis shareholders have voted to move forward with the proposal, which remains subject to final agreements and required regulatory review and approval. The organizations are targeting Jan. 1, 2027, for the transition. For now, patients can continue seeing their current providers, and Stellis clinics will operate as usual. However, some billing and insurance arrangements could change following the affiliation, Stellis leaders acknowledged in written responses to questions from the Monticello Times. “As part of the planned affiliation, some billing and insurance arrangements may change,” Stellis CEO Brent Wilde and President Dr. Frank Anderson said in their joint responses. “Those details are still being worked through, and it would be premature to speculate about the specific impact on individual patients.” They said affordability remains a priority and pledged
