Attorney to Represent City of Emily

The Minnesota League of Cities has hired attorney Paul D. Reuvers to represnt the City of Emily in their law suit with the developer who is building the Northern Lights over Roosevelt Lake Project. City Lakes Investment Group wants to overturn the city's decision to require an environmental impact study for the 48-lot project with 24-slip marina project. The plaintiff brought suit against the city to get them to reverse the decision saying the council decision was "based purely on speculative factors." An area citizen group said four state agencies testified in the hearings and all were critical of aspects of the project. No court dates have been set yet.
