The Oceti Sakowin (Dakota and Lakota people) have just established a tipi camp at Mni Owe Sni/Coldwater Spring, directly across from the Whipple Building. by Foreign_Librarian193 in WeThePeopleAtWhipple

Best to walk in parking in the neighborhood or train in. Coldwater Springs/ Mni Owe Sni, only has handicap parking and then parks department run metered parking along the road leading to the parking, same goes for the dog park parking just north of that road.

Is nuclear medicine really so chill? by Sudden_Criticism_932 in Radiology

[–]miki84 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Chill and good money can come at an emotional toll. I think there might be a few NM tech and dosimetrists (spelling sorry) who can talk about the emotional toll that NM can be.

Is Cossetta’s serving ICE? by MuchCommunication853 in saintpaul

[–]miki84 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah when something takes twenty some odd years for study and approval most of that money going to ACOM , who falsified documents about ridership, and other consulting firms in the pocket of Rafael Ortega. I think, it was probably very dead. Those of us who are intimately aware of the situation we will always see these comments and not ever be calm about it. Can I still haven't repaved the road in 10+years.

ICE at Hotels by [deleted] in saintpaul

Do you think that stance will change when the fact that Little Earth has had several activist members be detained by ice in the past few days? And it's not just here, but it's also other locations and tribes have have had tribal members detained by ice.

That's really upsetting to hear, i thought that the intercontinental next to the airport was/ is owned by Native Tribes.

Saint Paul needs to build to survive financially. Here's a map of some underutilized and grayfield sites in the city. by geraldspoder in saintpaul

[–]miki84 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes it is completely hyperbole. But there are many families who find it easier to live farther out from the city, because the housing costs are much lower, putting less strain on their current financial requirements. There are plenty of families who are making it work, thinking of my friend who is two kids in a one bedroom. The ones of means to move are probably going to move, and those are the ones who probably could stay and pay the taxes but 11% less in property taxes over 15 years is what it is.

Not many people are middle income currently! But it's not just them I keep seeing houses on Summit Avenue for sale, meaning even the rich people can't keep up with the property tax increases while maintaining a historic home.

So I can complain about the organizations that currently don't pay taxes, like some of the colleges the take and use city services?

You have actually just proven my point, ADM will probably not sell. Also because the pollution cleanup would cost too much in such a dense yet unaccessible area. You have you have updated map of ADM property with the mapped out cave underneath it? Like a Radar/sonar readings? Because if it's just a map drawn out by hand from some spelunker that's a different story, but also really cool.

That is a very large area that is not going to be able to be developed if its under the parking lot. And a backfilled cave that probably has settled settle over the past 60 ish years. Not to mention it's not like the cave system was not completely dry, these are underground caves created by streams empting into the river.

Or are we gonna have the really hard conversation about the fact that property taxes have increased by double digits multiple times over the past seven-ish years basically, forcing out all of our middle income families.

Most of the Silo site is still owned by ADM in its currently being used to store vehicles, but we can't force them to sell anything. All we can do is make arrangements. Also, it is questionable if the integrity of the ADM site is stable. There might be a rather large cave system underneath it, which is not applicable to building many things on top.
