Upcoming Visits

Crosby Cuyuna Range Visit Scheduled for April 22-25

The Minnesota Design Team will make our only spring visit April 22-24 to the Cuyuna Iron Range region.  We will focus on Crosby but will include surrounding cities of Ironton, Deerwood, Cuyuna, and others.  This will be a unique visit because of the heavy focus on creating a regional vision.  Some issues include:

1. Creating a regional framework to better connect the cities in the Cuyuna Lakes Region.

2. Rebranding and marketing the area to draw more tourists interested in outdoor activities, particularly mountain biking.

3. Preserving and revitalizing Crosby's historic downtown.

4. Creating infrastructure to attract more employees to the regional hospital, in particular creating more affordable housing near the hospital.

5. Preparing for an aging community.
