Mazeppa City Business in January

Posted

Heather Groby, Mazeppa Municipal Liquor store manager resigned effective January 13th. Heather had managed the liquor store for the last seven years and was instrumental in turning the enterprises loss into a profitable business during her time. Heather offered to work with the business while the city looks for her replacement, although the city council did not take her up on the offer. The city is accepting applications for the new manager through February 3rd.

During her time Heather added live music, dart, bean bag and pool leagues as well as some family friendly events which drew larger crowds.

SEMMCHRA representative Nick Koverman informed the council that the city has been granted $591,125 in funds for owner occupied housing rehabilitation projects. This will facilitate the rehabilitation of fifteen homes and twelve rental units at the River Valley Apartments. Qualified recipients may receive up to $25,000 for home repairs and the loans are forgiven if the owner continues to live in the home for ten years. These include repairs such as siding, windows, furnaces, plumbing and handicap accessible projects.

The Mazeppa Fire Department will host a skating and sledding party on February from 11am to 3pm at Herb Vik Park.
