DOCUMENT: School District Releases Dog Track Rezoning Analysis Report

A 63-page Hudson School District report that will be presented to the City of Hudson Plan Commission compares the St. Croix Meadows dog track property with three other potential secondary school site properties and addresses other concerns.

The Hudson School District will present the report to the Hudson Plan Commission on Sept. 6 and the Hudson Common Council on Sept. 17. It is the district's goal to persuade the council to rezone the property from commercial use to public use so that the $8.25 million purchase of the property can close and so the district can build a secondary school on the site. Voters approved a district-wide referendum on April 3, 2012, to finance the purchase of the property. Rezoning is one of the contingencies in the purchase agreement the district has entered with the seller.

All property has a market value no matter who owns it. I too question why the MV of UU is zero. Probably because the school district does not want the public to know how far the value has gone down since they purchased it for around 1.6 million dollars. Very bad decision to use zero! It has some kind of value.   more ›

Gun Shop, Indoor Shooting Range Could Open in Vacant Theater Space

John Monson, owner of two Bill's Gun Shop & Range locations in the Twin Cities area, is hoping to open up shop in Hudson, but he first needs the city to clear a zoning hurdle.

An indoor gun range could soon be coming to Hudson.  John Monson, owner of two Bill's Gun Shop & Range locations in the Twin Cities, has expressed interest in leasing the 22,000-square-foot space at Crestview Drive and O'Keefe Road that was vacated years ago by Hudson Cinema 9 when it expanded, moved and became the Hudson Theatre. Monson's shops, in Robbinsdale and Circle Pines, are both fully stocked retail firearms stores and indoor firing ranges with shootings lanes of 25 yards and 50 yards. He said for the past two years he's been looking for another location to open a shop. "Every time we got in the car and drove around, I just couldn't help but drive to Hudson," Monson said. "There's something about being on the other side of the …
