Proposed High Voltage Transmission Line Drawing Strong Opposition

A proposed high-voltage transmission line drew strong opposition during a Minnesota Public Utilities Commission hearing in Sherburn Thursday. The PowerOn Midwest project would bring a 765-thousand-kilo-volt transmission line from South Dakota across southern Minnesota, including Martin County, before ending in Dakota County. The project must receive a state Certificate of Need before moving forward. Representatives from Great River Energy say the line is needed to maintain electric reliability as power consumption is expected to increase by about 25-percent over the next 20 years. However, all 24 people who spoke during Thursday’s hearing opposed the project. Concerns included the impact on farmland, whether the line is actually needed, and the possibility it could attract large data centers to the region. Martin County Commissioner Richard Koons questioned the project’s benefits to southern Minnesota, saying local counties are losing population and the electricity would largely pass through the area rather than serve local needs. Another speaker, retired Xcel Energy employee Kent Scholl, argued that a smaller transmission project could meet near-term reliability needs with less disruption. Administrative Law Judge Joseph Meyer will issue a report with recommendations by February 15th. The Public Utilities Commission is expected to make a decision on the Certificate of Need around March or April of 2027. Comments can be submitted to the email consumer.puc@state.mn.us, mailed to Minnesota Public Utilities Commission, 121 7th Place East, Suite #350, Saint Paul, Minnesota, 55101, or faxed to 651-297-7073.

Putting on Face on Ag Issues

Election results may change who’s making decisions, but the priorities for Minnesota agriculture remain. Minnesota Farm Bureau Federation Vice President Carolyn Olson says the organization is ready to work with newly elected and returning lawmakers. “Whether you lean left or lean right, you’re going to be excited or you’re going to be disappointed,” said Olson. “Farm Bureau is a nonpartisan organization and I think that is one of our strengths as well.” Building relationships at the Capitol is only part of the job. “Putting a face on an issue is one of the best things we can do.” MFBF is hosting its annual meeting, starting Thursday in Minnetonka.

This Century-Old Meat Market In Minnesota Still Cuts, Smokes, And Wraps Everything By Hand Like It Did Generations Ago

A Minnesota meat counter once rolled out dill pepper sticks nicknamed Dilly, and they went flying out of the case. That alone got my attention. The same shop sells Swedish sausage, deboned hams, and lingonberry jam from Sweden. It also still cuts porterhouse steaks, which fewer butcher counters seem to bother with these days.

5 Minnesota Enclosed Malls That Opened Before 1970 and Still Operate in 2026.

On October 8, 1956, Southdale Center opened in Edina, Minnesota. No shopping mall in the United States had been fully enclosed and climate-controlled before it. The Dayton family had hired the architect Victor Gruen, and his plan set two levels of stores around a garden court under a large skylight, with Dayton's anchoring one end and Donaldson's the opposite one.

St. Paul's 900-Ton Mansion Crawled Five Blocks to Dodge the Wrecking Ball

A 900-ton Victorian duplex once crept through downtown St. Paul at a crawling 20 feet per hour, lifted with hydraulic jacks and conveyed on wheeled dollies past onlookers, to escape a date with the wrecking ball. Twenty-five years later, the Armstrong-Quinlan House still stands in the Irvine Park neighborhood — though its path there, and the years of struggle that followed, make for one of the stranger chapters in the city's preservation history.
