Where will the homeless in Rochester go during the day after The Landing MN closes at the end of April?

That's a great question!  This is one of the reasons why the forum is also happening - to give the community an update on the next steps for The Landing MN once the lease is up at the old Silver Lake Fire Station in April.  At one point there were talks of The Landing MN purchasing the old Whiskey Bones property by the Purple Goat.  Come in person to the forum or virtually to help brainstorm how we can help those in our community experiencing homelessness and hear what is next for The Landing MN.
