It's official. As of this past Friday, July 7, both floors of the new Becker County Museum are now open to the public from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. every Tuesday through Saturday.
Outgoing Becker County Commissioners Larry Knutson, District 1, and Ben Grimsley, District 2, were each honored for their years of service during the last county board meeting of the year on Dec. 20.
In a surprise move, Becker County Administrator Pat Oman brought the items back for consideration Nov. 15, even though the action was not included on the board agenda for that day’s meeting.
“I think we can work together really well,” David Meyer said. “What I’ve been talking about the whole time is fixing the relationship between leadership and workers, so we can make Becker County a place where people want to work and want to be at. That needs to be addressed soon. Becker County can’t afford to lose any more people.”
