  1. Talk is cheap, doubt I will believe much of anything that comes out of the Range commissioners anymore because they were not willing to take a vote on this. SAD. We now know how the commissioners really stand on this issue, no vote needed. Proud to be a Duluthian with quality representation that is willing to stand up and do the right thing at the right time. I now know better why the northern commissioners want the county to be split up. Sad day for those on the Range that are in the minority on this issue, if they really are. VOTE VOTE VOTE!

    • Well…. as tourism slows, and mines and paper mills idle INDEFINITELY, and restaurants and bars are basically idled, and hardly able to support the workers they were in the past–and hospital/healthcare workers are being laid off–and the college situation remains unclear–the question needs an answer– ¨What will these folks be doing to stay busy and earn a living in an economy where people who have been here for a long time are finding themselves out of work?¨ And also, ¨What will the college students be able to do to earn an income while attending classes¨???

      (….crickets…..)

      We haven’t seen an answer to any of that just yet, or even an attempt at an answer from leadership… And does this sort of increase in residents looking for jobs really help all people? Or does it create a horrible reality unfolding ahead of each and every one of us?

      Duluth´s leaders and commissioners are a group of spineless weasels, people should probably recognize that first and foremost. Patrick Boyle is right on that list. Things they say should be scrutinized MUCH, much more than they currently are. The urban view vs out-in-the-country view of life is also something that deserves an honest appraisal. These commissioners from Duluth see the world in a completely different way than non-urban counterparts.
