Familiar Warroad Landmark to Close Monday

A familiar landmark, Warroad’s first ever Holiday Station is scheduled for closure and demolition to be soon replaced by a new Circle K Station. Circle K District Manager Angie Brodshaug explains:

The new facility will have a much bigger footprint.

The new station has been in the works for about three of four years, notes Broadshaug. Customers can expect the same level of service in a much more accommodating store.

The current team will transition to the store across from the Marvin manufacturing facility in the interim. Construction should las 6-8 months with an expected completion date in the November/December time frame.

RRWMB Director gives Bonding Bill update 

The Minnesota Legislative Session came to an end Monday, and a special session is expected in the coming days. One bill that’s expected to come out of this legislative session is the bonding bill. Red River Watershed Management Board Executive Director Rob Sip tells us what he’s hearing about the bill, and what it would mean for RRWMB water projects. 

Sip says the RRWMB was able to secure some funding through the Legacy Finance Bill, and he says there is some other funding that could still be on the table. 

However, Sip is disappointed to announce that the RRWMB did not receive funding for the Riverwatch program, and he tells us what that means for the organization.
