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…

Open Question: Is Hastings on the right track?

Given the current economic conditions, cities across Minnesota and America are constantly finding new and creative ways to attract businesses, retain existing employers, attract new residents, and encourage tourism.But what about Hastings? Do you feel we are the right track? Are we doing the right things to attract new businesses and investment in the community? Or are we stuck in neutral, hoping the economy turns around soon?It's a good question, and we'd like to hear what you think. Please…See More

Five years ago I would have said no to the question of locking my car doors in Hastings.

I'm pretty sure I'm not a complete moron, but when I click on Main and the Blogs, the post is about Lisa Hedrin running for school board?

Hi Tom,

 

I'm trying to find the blog post about the Coffee News, but I can't seem to find it.  Could you send me the link please?

 

Thank you!

By now, most of us have heard about the vandalism in the 1800 block of Forest that took place here in Hastings on Dec. 1. Apparently, in the dark of night, someone or a group of individuals felt they needed to spray paint racist and hateful words and symbols on the side of homes and vehicles.
