Commercial Development Options for Current City Hall [PODCAST]
St. Cloud Mayor Dave Kleis joined me on WJON for a radio town hall meeting today. He says he expects the city to move forward in March with the transfer of ownership of the old Tech High School building from the St. Cloud School District to the city of St. Cloud with demolition of a portion of the old building to come. Kleis says the timeline for the remodel would have city officials moving into the new facility for city hall at the end of the year.
Kleis says as for the current city hall building there has been lots of commercial interest. He says he d like to see a grocery, pharmacy, and/or a restaurant in what is now city hall. I asked the Mayor about the old Perkins downtown location. He says he knows the building is for sale but isn t aware of any pending sale. He says if that were to happen it would become public knowledge.
CentraCare Spokesman Dr. George Morris joined me on WJON today. He says they have less than 20 people with Covid-19 at St. Cloud Hospital and within CentraCare facilities in the region. He says they only have a few Covid-19 patients in the critical care/ICU.
