ST. PAUL — Over the last several weeks, Governor Mark Dayton and members of his Cabinet have held a series of water quality town hall meetings across Minnesota. Hundreds of Minnesotans have attended the meetings to discuss ways to improve the quality of our lakes, rivers, streams, and drinking water.
Several more town hall meetings will be held in communities across the state in the coming weeks. Minnesotans from all walks of life are encouraged to attend and engage in conversations about how together we can improve the quality of the water we all depend on – for our families, our health, our economy, and the quality of life we cherish here in Minnesota.
Today, I wanted to take a moment to share with you some of the news coverage from the town hall meetings that have happened already (links included below). Also, I wanted to share with you THIS WEB PAGE, where you can:
