i noticed a lot of dispensaries opening in the area and am trying to find my favorite, what one should i shop at and why. Preferably local. Also wondering if any are open for the 4th of July?
I got fired from my job last week. I’ll spill the tea on that later. I’m looking for something new and need some townies advice on where to go. Lots of experience in food service but I wanna get out of food if possible
saw this dan wilson video about prices in winona. .
I made my first political donation ever to Jake and I hope you do too. Tonight is the deadline for this quarter, and a good fundraising quarter for Jake's grassroots campaign is hugely important to be able to pay for organizers, advertising, and travel costs. He's at a disadvantage against the Big Oil, Big Defense, Big Ag, Big Pesticide, and AIPAC machine that bankrolls Finstad, so people like us need to put our money where our mouth is and support him.

Roadside units scan license plates and log vehicle details with locations in real time. This enables instant matching that records every trip for later searches.
Patrol cars add scans that feed central databases building movement histories. The result is profiles of daily routines which creates pathways for tracking without warrants.
Easy adoption spreads the network fast while data sharing stays hidden from view. This opacity makes misuse hard to detect or audit as agencies join.
The system allows predicting locations or flagging groups that open doors to abuse. Individuals face little recourse to see or challenge how their data drives surveillance powers.
I'm in town for a couple days. In my 30s.
About 3 mins after squad cars started showing up, anyone know what's up?
Let's not forget he has one of the highest paid staffs in DC. Great to see his true politician colors coming out
A recent court injunction has temporarily halted construction activity on the proposed Project Skyway data center near Pine Island while environmental review litigation proceeds.
Regardless of where you stand on data centers, this has raised broader questions across Southeast Minnesota about groundwater use, electrical demand, and how large-scale industrial development fits into regions with sensitive karst geology.
Winona County sits on karst limestone formations that directly connect surface activity to groundwater systems. Because of that, some residents believe it is worth reviewing whether current zoning rules are prepared for potential future large-scale data center proposals.
If you care about these issues, here is a local opportunity to be heard:
WINONA CITY COUNCIL MEETING
Date: Monday, July 6, 2026 (confirm on official city calendar before attending)
Time: 6:30 PM
Location: Winona City Hall, Council Chambers (3rd Floor)
207 Lafayette Street, Winona, MN 55987
PUBLIC COMMENT
Winona requires advance registration for public comment. Registration opens Friday morning before the meeting and closes at 3:00 PM on meeting day. Check the city website ahead of time to confirm exact procedures.
Suggested topics if you attend:
• Potential groundwater impacts of large-scale data centers in karst regions
• Whether independent environmental and water-use studies should be required for major industrial projects
• Impacts of increased electrical demand on local infrastructure and utility costs
• Whether current zoning rules adequately address hyperscale data center development
If you cannot attend, you can still contact City Council members through the official city directory and share your perspective:

A short message is enough:
Dear Winona City Council,
I am writing to ask that the City of Winona consider evaluating the potential impacts of large-scale data center development on groundwater, infrastructure, and utility systems before approving future proposals. Please ensure appropriate environmental and water-use studies are completed for any major projects of this type.
Thank you for your time.
This is a local planning conversation—not a partisan issue—and participation is the point.
