Brooklyn Park felon federally sentenced for possessing a firearm

United States Attorney Daniel N. Rosen announced that Antonio Depries Arnold, 34, of Brooklyn Park, was sentenced to 71 months in prison for being a felon in possession of a firearm. Arnold was sentenced before U.S. District Judge Laura M. Provinzino on Nov. 5, and he previously pleaded guilty on April 9. According to court documents, in January 2025, law enforcement began investigating Arnold after his name was found as a contact in a phone that was a part of an ongoing narcotics investigation. Agents began surveilling Arnold in February 2025, and when they observed him getting out of his vehicle, they conducted a swab of the driver’s door, and it tested positive for morphine. Agents also swabbed several items that were recovered from Arnold’s trash on April 15, 2025, and the items tested positive for morphine, cocaine, and oxycodone. On April 21, 2025, agents executed a search warrant at Arnold’s residence. As they approached Arnold, agents saw the defendant outside his residence, told him to get on the ground, and took him into custody. On the ground several feet away from the defendant, agents located a .45 caliber semi-automatic pistol. The defendant admitted to officers that the pistol belonged

Monticello vote reveals divide near proposed data center

MONTICELLO — Candidates who opposed Monticello's proposed data center drew their strongest support in the city voting precinct closest to the 547-acre development, according to unofficial results from Tuesday's general election. Monica Primeau, who challenged incumbent Mayor Lloyd Hilgart, won Precinct 3 by 352 votes, receiving 1,029 votes to Hilgart's 677. It was the only one of Monticello's four precincts carried by Primeau and nearly enough to overcome Hilgart's advantage elsewhere in the city. Hilgart won re-election by just 40 votes, receiving 2,441 votes to Primeau's 2,401. A third candidate, Jeff Rowan, received 710 votes. The geographic pattern extended to the City Council race, where challengers Derek Armstrong and Scott Cutsforth, both critics of the proposed data center, also recorded their strongest performances in Precinct 3. While the results reveal a geographic concentration of support for candidates critical of the development, they cannot establish what motivated individual voters. Support strongest near proposed site Precinct 3 encompasses much of western and central Monticello south of Interstate 94, including neighborhoods along School Boulevard and the city's southwestern edge. The proposed Edmonson Business Center would occupy approximately 547 acres south of 85th Street NE and east of Highway 25, near the precinct's southern

Osseo takes next step in Boerboom Park master plan

Two houses owned by the city of Osseo will soon be removed next to Boerboom Park. On Oct. 26, the City Council approved demolition specifications to remove those homes, a bid package, bid solicitation and contract execution in the amount of $8,867. These two homes, at 25 Fourth St. and 417 First Ave. Northeast, are located on the east side of the city block with the park. Alyson Fauske, city engineer with WSB, said there were two other homes to the west that were removed in 2022. The city has been working on purchasing the homes next to Boerboom Park when they went on the market for sale. The plans are for the city to create a larger park area taking over the entire block area. No confirmed plans for a new park layout have been approved at this time. During a work session on Oct 26, Fauske said early this year, WSB completed an asbestos assessment of both homes. “Those homes are now vacant,” Fauske said. “Staff wanted to see if the council would be interested in getting quotes to remove those remaining [homes].” Councilmember Mark Cook mentioned for the public why the council was making this decision.

The St. Michael City Council declared Shop Small Week and approved a feasibility report for the Jamison Avenue Corridor extension at its meeting on Oct. 27. Discover STMA The City Council approved a resolution proclaiming Nov. 23-28 as Shop Small Week. The resolution was brought forward by Discover STMA, which is an organization that promotes local businesses in the St. Michael-Albertville area. President of Discover STMA Courtney Wiest said local businesses would receive Shop Small success kits if they registered, and they would receive ideas of how they could promote their businesses. She also said Discover STMA would use a “pop-up” method to help businesses without physical locations advertise their services. “Want to make sure all businesses in the community have the opportunity to participate, even if they don’t have a brick and mortar spot,” Wiest said. She said that businesses with enough space would host other businesses to do pop-up shops. “If we get a lot and they don’t have anywhere to go, we will find a space,” Wiest said. Another item Discover STMA is planning is to host a window-decorating contest for businesses with a prize, Wiest said. As for customers, Wiest said Discover STMA will have an

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.

Monticello data center debate puts public trust to test

MONTICELLO — What does transparency look like when a community is divided over a controversial development? In Monticello, the question has become central to the debate over the proposed Edmonson Business Center, a roughly 547-acre hyperscale data center development proposed by Monticello Tech LLC south of 85th Street NE and east of Highway 25. The proposal has raised questions about electricity demand, water use, noise from backup generators and the financial obligations associated with the development. Some residents have accused city officials of withholding information or failing to adequately address their concerns, while others say the information is available but want more explanation of how and why decisions are being made. The city has published studies, development applications and meeting materials on its website. Public meetings have been livestreamed and recorded, an open house was held on the area’s environmental review, and government records have been made available upon request. Yet as the proposal approaches a pivotal City Council hearing Nov. 9, disagreement persists over whether making information available is the same as being transparent. For some, transparency means providing access to information and opportunities for public participation. For others, it means explaining decisions, acknowledging unanswered questions and demonstrating that

Forest Lake facing staff changes amid city administrator search

The City of Forest Lake is facing staff changes amid its search for its next city administrator, as finance director Elle Reichert submitted her resignation on Friday, Oct. 23, and deputy city clerk Amanda Milks’ employment with the city ended on Tuesday, Oct. 20, according to interim city administrator Jolleen Chaika. The Forest Lake Council formally accepted Reichert’s resignation, effective Monday, Nov. 23, 2026, at its Monday, Oct. 26 meeting. Chaika said her and Reichert, who was hired in September 2025, will meet to discuss the transition as Reichert moves to a new role in another metro area city. Mayor Blake Roberts and council members thanked Reichert for her contributions, and Roberts said a large city in the south metro is going to “benefit greatly with her knowledge.” According to a council memo, “the finance director vacancy creates a need for interim leadership to maintain financial operations, support completion of the 2027 budget process, oversee year-end activities, and provide direction to finance department staff.” The Council authorized Chaika to develop and negotiate a proposed interim finance director arrangement, including the proposed cost and funding source, to be presented for Council consideration and approval at its next regular meeting on Monday,

Deb Haaland and Peggy Flanagan Mark Their Historic Wins in Intentional Earrings

Last night, the 2026 midterm election results delivered plenty of historic firsts. It was a particularly powerful night for Native American representation: Democrat Deb Haaland became the first Native American woman to be elected as Governor of New Mexico, while Peggy Flanagan—the current lieutenant governor of Minnesota—became the first Native woman to win the U.S. Senate seat in her state. (And there could even be a third victory for the Indigenous community today: at the time of publishing this story, Alaska’s Mary Peltola is currently leading the race for a Senate seat, too.)
