How about "None of the Above"? City government's lack of openess bothered a lot of people.

I wonder--for the sake of discussion--how some farmers would view this land use planning? Let's say you own a farm and at some point, because your children took alternate careers, the farm will end operations. If your land has been branded as permanent farming land, it hurts your maximum property value. If some developer wanted to come in and offer you $15,000 to $20,000 per acre, that's as much as 10 times what the land would be worth as farmland.

Who are we to say that this land owner doesn't have a right to the highest profit from his investment? Shouldn't the land owner get to choose a land use, whether it be farming or development?

Food for thought...

If you want nothing done in St Paul for Jordan and the area Beusgens has served for the last 4 terms, vote for him again. Or, better yet, get a monkey and train it to push the no button and you will get about the same thing.

Jim certainly represented the county fair very well this morning (I was at the kickoff breakfast), and the accidental loudness of the speakers, which probably broadcast Jim's voice to who knows how many listeners, ought to raise awareness of the event. It did seem like there was a point at which a radio technician whispered to a fair board member, asking if it would be OK to turn down the speakers. But why not get a little publicity?

Being held accountable for even the smallest of miswritten items is extremely important to the credibility of your local newspaper, so thank you, swansonmej. You and others like you greatly assist the JI in building trust among its readers.

Anyone listen to WCCO at the scott co. fair this morning? There were times where I couldn't tell the difference between Mike Lynch's voice and Jim Terwedo's.

I would think that high of coverage on WCCO should help out attendance.

Thanks for the correction.
