Interstate 35 work begins Wednesday

BRITT - Concrete patching work will reduce Interstate 35 to one lane in both directions between Wright County roads C-70 and R-75 (Exit 151) north of the Williams area and the Minnesota state line beginning Wednesday, according to the Iowa Department of Transportation.

A 14-foot width lane restriction will be in place in the open lane. This project is expected to be completed late September.

The Iowa DOT reminds motorists to drive with caution, obey posted speed limit and other signs in the work area, and be aware that traffic fines for moving violations can more than double in work zones.

Wright County's Koch Wants Referendum on Vikings Stadium - St ...

Wright County Sen. Amy Koch, the Senate's majority leader, told the Minneapolis Star Tribune and other media outlets yesterday that she would like to see a voter referendum on any tax increase proposed to fund a new stadium for the Minnesota Vikings, particularly the current project on the table for Arden Hills.

Koch, flanked by House Majority Leader Kurt Zeller (R, Maple Grove), told reporters she wants to see a vote on the issue, "no matter where it is built."

Fellow Republican Rep. Morrie Lanning (Moorhead) said that will pretty much end any hopes of a new stadium being built in this economy, and the Vikings would be out of Minnesota once the team's lease is up at the Metrodome at the end of this season.

Koch's Assistant Majority Leader, Sen. Geoff Michel (R, Edina) was part of the University of Minnesota Gopher stadium project, and did not push for a referendum for that facility. It was built without a taxpayer vote.

Commissioners in Hennepin County approved a sales tax increase to fund a Twins stadium about five and a half years ago.Vikings administration said they would like the same agreement of the Twins organization has received.

Non-scientific polls conducted by various media, including Minnesota Public Radio, show the public does not favor a tax increase to fund part of the state of the stadium.
