Commissioner notes LCCMR ballot and Revolve Labs withdraws Bitcoin-mining CUP

Commissioner Larry Anderson reported from the MRC meeting that the Legislative-Citizen Commission on Minnesota Resources (LCCMR), an environmental trust funded by lottery revenue, must be re-commissioned and will appear on the November ballot; Anderson said that due to recent legislation the trust will not fund septic and sewer projects for the next 10 years. Commissioner Donna Gravley asked that it be noted in the minutes that Revolve Labs officially withdrew their Conditional Use Permit application for a proposed Bitcoin mining facility on the east side of Cottonwood Lake.
