Thanks for your post, Richard.

By the "right track" we are talking about the general direction of the city.

Here are some questions to consider:

Are we attracting enough new businesses, and the right kind of new stores and restaurants? How is Hastings doing when compared to similar communities? Are the streets and medians well maintained? Are storefronts in Hastings attractive or run-down? Do you get a positive impression when you drive into Hastings, or do we have some work to do? How well are neighborhood zoning ordinances enforced? Would you recommend Hastings to someone moving to the area, or would you steer them to another city? How are our schools? How's the crime rate? Do you feel safe on the streets after dark?

The minute lite rail makes it here you will know where Hasting will be heading.

Hi Steve,

Can you clarify what you think will happen when we have a commuter rail line between here at St. Paul?
