Sartell Mayor Ryan Fitzthum says the vision for the property includes trails, green space, residential, commercial and some sort of activity/sports feature. Fitzthum expects the property to be a gathering space and he acknowledges the need for parking. He says there is a possibility they would create a parking garage to accommodate this need. Fitzthum says there are over 330 homes that are on the Mississippi River between the Sartell Dam and the Rice Bridge with no recreational ability or any stopping point. He says this will be a great draw for boaters and those living in the community. Fitzthum's intention is a make this location a year round destination. Some possible options could include a curling facility, pickle ball, and/or a brewery. Fitzthum says the plan is to make the Mill District property available on the market early in 2025 with the expectation to sell the property to a developer that same year. He says the first step is to have a someone act as a realtor who would represent the city to find a developer interested in the property and to sell it at a fair price.--Tony Housey spoke yesterday on KLTF about Camp Ripley and said that recently U.S. Army Aviators from Company C, 2nd Battalion, 211th General Support Aviation Battalion conducted hoist training at Camp Ripley.
