Maplewood Tragedy, Xcel Energy Milestone, Target Profits Slump, PFAS Cleanup in Cottage Grove, and More - Minneapolis Local Pulse

サマリー
あらすじ・解説
Good morning, this is Minneapolis Local Pulse for Friday, November 22, 2024.
We're starting with breaking news from the past few days. A teenage pedestrian from Maplewood tragically lost his life after being struck by an SUV on Highway 61 Monday morning. Our thoughts are with the family and community during this difficult time[1].
In other news, Minneapolis leaders, including Governor Tim Walz, gathered at Xcel Energy's Sherco Solar plant near St. Cloud to celebrate a milestone in the state's shift toward carbon-free electricity. This marks a significant step forward in our city's commitment to sustainability.
Moving on to the job market, while there are no major hiring announcements or new job postings to report today, we do have an update on the business front. Target recently reported a slim sales increase in the third quarter, but profits slumped due to inflation-weary customers and costs related to a dockworker strike in October[3].
In real estate news, there are no notable commercial or residential property sales to report today. However, we do have an update on a local development project. Cottage Grove has a plan to filter PFAS out of its drinking water, along with a way to pay for it, which is a significant step forward in addressing environmental concerns[1].
From city hall, Russell Fujisawa, who helped Chicago police implement reforms, will now be in charge of complaints, police oversight, and misconduct claims in the city of Minneapolis. This appointment aims to enhance transparency and accountability within our local law enforcement.
Looking at the weather, temperatures will drop throughout the day today before some potential snowfall arrives. Light snow and flurries will move across Minnesota from west to east overnight Wednesday, with a dusting expected in the Twin Cities and 1-4 inches possible in the northwest corner of the state[1].
In new business activity, the bubble tea chain is moving into the former Caribou Coffee on St. Paul's Grand Avenue, adding another spot for locals to enjoy[2].
Upcoming community events include the annual Flood Run on Saturday, which is expected to draw thousands of bikers. Additionally, Open Streets Minneapolis is moving forward with new event organizers and is still seeking more hosts[4].
In local school achievements, a state legislative study group met Monday to get feedback on plans to reduce the number of students who are chronically absent from school. This initiative aims to improve attendance and overall educational outcomes[1].
For a feel-good community story, the Hmong Cornhole Club is providing a competitive outlet for some and a social draw for others, showcasing the diverse and vibrant community spirit in our city[3].
In today's crime report, a 35-year-old St. Paul man is in custody after an hours-long standoff with law enforcement early Tuesday in the east metro. Additionally, a 41-year-old man is accused of killing his girlfriend in his Red Wing apartment on Sunday. We urge everyone to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to the authorities[1].
This has been Minneapolis Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
