2 St. Cloud-area grocery stores named among the best

USA TODAY has released its list of the 10 best grocery stores in the U.S. for 2026. Two of the supermarkets included in the top 10 have locations you can visit right here in the St. Cloud area. USA TODAY 10Best ranked U.S. grocery stores for their value, selection and service. The 10 best grocery stores were nominated by an expert panel and voted on by readers. The ranking was released in early September. Two chains with central Minnesota locations made the list: Fresh Thyme Market and Aldi. Here's where they landed. Aldi Aldi came in at No. 4 on the 10best list. Low prices are also a big selling point for Aldi shoppers. One way Aldi is able to provide these lower prices is by offsetting other costs. Shoppers have to bring their own bags or purchase them from Aldi, and the shopping carts need a quarter to be unlocked, which can be reclaimed once the shopper returns the cart. This reduces the need for extra employees to bring in carts from the parking lot. USA TODAY also highlighted the store's lenient return policy, called the "Twice as Nice Guarantee," in which Aldi replaces the product and refunds the

St. Cloud Weighs Letting Apartments Rise Downtown and Along Highway 10

Roosevelt Rd. & Hwy. 10 — Approximate Proposed Apartment Corridor. St. Cloud is moving to make it easier to build apartments downtown and along the city's busiest commercial roads, with a zoning change that would let stand-alone apartment buildings rise in three commercial districts where today housing is confined to upper floors above shops and offices. The proposal goes before the city's Planning Commission Tuesday, and if it clears that hurdle, it still faces a City Council public hearing and vote before anything changes.

Bomb-lab defendant sentenced in Monticello weapons case

MONTICELLO — Years before a roadside explosion led authorities to a Big Lake home filled with homemade explosives, guns and 3D-printed weapon parts, Jantje Rorman had already landed in court over another homemade weapon — this one fired at Montissippi Regional Park. Rorman, 51, was sentenced Nov. 4 in Wright County District Court for violating probation in the 2022 Monticello weapons case. He was sentenced to 188 days in jail but received credit for all 188 days already served, meaning he will serve no additional jail time in the case. The court also closed the case. The sentence comes about a year after Rorman’s arrest in a high-profile Sherburne County explosives case that began when a deputy witnessed a roadside blast in Big Lake Township. At the time of that incident, Rorman was still subject to probation conditions from the Monticello case prohibiting him from possessing firearms or dangerous weapons. Gun fired at Montissippi The earlier case began Dec. 16, 2022, when a Wright County sheriff’s deputy responded to Montissippi Regional Park after receiving a report of a firearm being discharged. According to the criminal complaint, a man was fishing near the river embankment when Rorman arrived in a green

Magic rout rival Elks to reach state

It was a rematch to remember. Monticello punched its ticket to the state football tournament Friday for the fourth time in school history, joining the 1976, 1988 and 2024 teams. The Magic did it by cruising past rival Elk River 23-0 in the Section 7AAAAA championship. The first meeting between the teams came a few weeks earlier. With both sides coming in 6-0, statewide attention turned to Elk River, where the Elks and Magic battled to stay undefeated. The Magic came out on top in a back-and-forth slugfest that ended 36-29. After winning their next two games, including a section semifinal, the Magic met the Elks again. The winner was the same, but the game was anything but. Maxwell Lofgren capped a 73-yard opening drive, following excellent blocking on a toss to the right side all the way to the end zone for a 13-yard touchdown. Quarterback Carson Deibele ran in the two-point conversion to make it 8-0 with 6:26 left in the first quarter. Early in the second quarter, the Magic defense came up big, recovering a fumble deep in its own territory to leave the Elks with no points. Monticello took over and drove down the field again.

Monticello data center decision delayed until Nov. 30 after divided council vote

MONTICELLO — After months of debate, mounting opposition and unanswered questions, Monticello’s proposed data center moved another step closer to approval Monday night. But the final decision will have to wait. Following four hours of testimony, presentations and discussion Nov. 9, the City Council voted 3-1 to direct staff to prepare approval documents for the controversial 547-acre development. The council will consider them at a special meeting Nov. 30, just eight days before a state-imposed deadline. The votes did not approve the data center or authorize construction. Instead, they directed staff to prepare approvals for annexation, a preliminary plat, rezoning and a conditional use permit. Mayor Lloyd Hilgart and council members Lee Martie and Kip Christianson supported the motions. Council member Charlotte Gabler opposed all four, while council member Tracy Hinz was absent. The meeting drew a standing-room-only crowd to the Monticello Community Center, with about two hours of public testimony followed by presentations and questions about financing, water use, environmental protections and the still-unidentified company that would ultimately operate the facility. Residents urged the council to reconsider, raising concerns about noise, water and electricity consumption, property values, farmland and the potential effects on neighboring homes. Among them was Evan
