INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS In a further bid to support downtown businesses, Langholz adds that the city is in preliminary discussions with the MN Depar tment of Transportation to redo the streetscape along Hwy 74. “In the meantime, we have multiple committees that work on planters, benches, flowers, etc. to make the area a warm and welcoming place to visit. “The city also owns three public parking lots in close proximity to the downtown area, so even if parking is full along the main corridor, we have plenty of overflow parking for people to get to their destination quickly.” 83 CIVIL AND MUNICIPAL VOLUME 5, ISSUE 02 ST.
