Northfield attorney faces possible 2nd suspension over eviction case

A Minnesota Supreme Court-appointed referee has recommended suspending a prominent Northfield attorney for at least 60 days after finding he violated professional conduct rules while pursuing a 2024 eviction case in Faribault. Referee Jon A. Maturi concluded in September that David Ludescher filed a frivolous eviction complaint and a subsequent frivolous motion for a new trial. However, Maturi determined that the filings were not malicious and that the misconduct was substantially less serious than violations that led to Ludescher’s previous suspension in 2023. Ludescher, a former Northfield city councilor and frequent voice in local political discussions, disputes the findings. The case began when a woman acquired a Faribault rental property whose previous owner had leased it without obtaining the required city rental license. The new owner retained Ludescher to evict two tenants, citing concerns about property damage, access to the home and potential civil or criminal penalties for continuing to rent without a license. Although the city of Faribault prohibits renting property without a license, its ordinance does not specify whether such a violation invalidates an existing lease. Ludescher maintained that the previous owner’s failure to obtain a license made the agreement unenforceable against the new owner, who should not

This Historic Minnesota Restaurant Was Once A Stagecoach Stop Before Minnesota Even Became A State

A stone doorstep at one old Minnesota restaurant is worn down by more than a century of footsteps. That groove started forming when stagecoaches still rolled up outside. The first version was a tiny log hotel, just 16 by 24 feet. It opened in 1854, four years before Minnesota was even a state. Mail carriers and weary travelers stopped there on long trips west.

‘Proactive not reactive’: Planning commission moves forward with ordinance amendments

After being asked 100 questions by Owatonna, Northfield and Pine Island residents about data centers, the Owatonna Planning Commission moved forward with recommending its proposed ordinance amendments, including defining and regulating data centers. “It’s a 0.001% area of what we’re doing,” Community Development Manager Greg Kruschke said about data centers during the open house before Tuesday’s planning commission meeting. “The code was last updated in the ‘80s. There’s been updates through there, but the last major overhaul (was in the 1980s).” Changes to the Zoning Ordinance include cutting about 50 pages, updating zoning districts, adding a shoreland ordinance and modernizing home occupation standards, among others. Data centers were defined as “A facility used for the storage, processing, management, and distribution of digital data and information, consisting of servers, networking equipment and supporting infrastructure such as cooling systems, backup power generation and electrical equipment.” The definition was further broken up to major and minor data centers; major data centers have a capacity threshold of “greater than 5 MW of totaled designed IT load (often expanding to 100+ MW),” while minor data centers have “up to 5 MW of total designed IT load.” During the open house, Planning Specialist Emma Bransford said

Straight River Arts installs first in series of new public artworks

Straight River Arts installed the first of several works of public art Tuesday at Buckham Memorial Library. The arts organization partnered with Faribault Parks and Recreation and the Paradise Center for the Arts for the project, a 9-foot set of wind chimes with a fleur-de-lis hanging from the bottom. The organizations received a grant from the Faribault Economic Development Authority to fund the artworks. “It’s been a really amazing process,” artist and Straight River Arts co-founder Jessica Prill said. “The support that we have gotten from the city has been really great.” Prill created the wind chimes along with her husband, Matt Leister. Prill described the division of labor as her having more creative control over the project, while Leister did more of the engineering needed for the chimes, “He did all the hard parts,” Prill said. “I was the concept, he was the math. He went in and figured out how to get each pipe to have a specific note, and then a chord, and researched all of the things that are required to give it actual tuning and how to make it structural so that it could hang outdoors and be safe and last.” Prill’s inspiration behind this
