The largest share for the proposed remodel, $300,000, will be used to update the theatre s ballroom from a gymnasium with a tiered stage into an event space with an additional $40,000 to be used to provide updated club seating to the theatre s balcony. Council members also denied a parking space variance for McDonald s, on a 5-4 vote, which would have allowed the restaurant to construct a new dual drive-thru lane ordering system.

People just love it in Detroit Lakes.
“DL,” as the locals call it, is a laid-back place where folks are happy to hang out by the water in their flip-flops all summer long, and then just as happy to head to the hills in their ski boots in winter.
A prime example of Minnesota’s famous ‘lake culture,’ Detroit Lakes is a magnet for summer tourists. Boating, tubing, biking, beach-going there’s never a shortage of outdoor fun in the sun. The community’s mile-long beach, just blocks from downtown, along with its generous smattering of stores, restaurants and lakeside hotels and resorts, are all big draws for warm weather visitors.
