Thanks to some generous contributors and the Minnesota Disaster Relief Association, the Cokato Area Food Shelf has found a new home. Currently located in the basement of Elim Mission Church in Cokato, the food shelf will now be more accessible and have more space in the former Mike’s Transmission building - 395 Broadway South. The food shelf will be sharing part of the building with the local nonprofit volunteer service organization, Minnesota Disaster Relief. This will be a storage space and base for them, as well as a loading site for disaster relief trips like Hurricane Katrina.
A 69-year-old Dassel man was arrested Thursday and is facing possible charges of making terroristic threats, according to KDUZ Radio. Meeker County officials say at about 12:19 Thursday afternoon they took a complaint from the Meeker County Treasurer’s Office that an individual had made threats by phone in regards to his property tax statement. After investigating, a 69-year-old Dassel man was arrested. The suspect was taken to the Meeker County Jail, pending a court appearance.
The Dassel City Council listened to a proposal last Monday from Larry Oberg that a steak and seafood supper club, serving wine with dinner, and including a health bar, is planned for Dassel. The supper club does not have a location yet. The developer doesn’t want the restaurant to be larger than 5,000 square feet so he doesn’t have to install a sprinkler system, Oberg said.
Also, the restaurant won’t open until 4 p.m. It won’t compete with existing restaurants serving breakfast, he said.
