No Annexation Approval Yet

Koochiching County is still looking for some assurances before its ready to join in on an annexation proposal by the city of International Falls.

The City wants lands for a planned multi-modal facility within its jurisdiction.

County Commissioner Wade Pavleck is supportive, but says promises made a year ago need to be more formal.

The County wants to ensure a good buffer around the development and that any rock blasting is conducted according to its regulations.


Officials plan to meet again towards drafting an agreement.
