At the State Capitol, the 2025-2026 legislative session is on hold, with lawmakers set to reconvene in February. Recently, two state senators, Rich Draheim and Steve Cwodzinski, as well as Representative Sandra Feist, announced they will not seek reelection in 2026, as covered by KSTP and Minnesota House News. These retirements may set the stage for important changes in legislative leadership and policy priorities in the new year.
Local governments are moving forward on several major projects. In St. Paul, city officials have advanced redevelopment plans at the historic Hamm’s Brewery site, aiming to convert the area into 196 units of affordable housing paired with commercial space, as reported by CBS Minnesota. Across the metro, Golden Valley is prepping to select a design team for its new Civic Center Campus Master Plan before year’s end, with planning set for 2026.
In business and the economy, Minnesota continues to see robust job growth in clean energy. Clean Energy Economy MN notes the state now supports over 63,000 clean energy jobs, with energy efficiency roles employed across both urban and rural communities. This workforce surge is bolstered by new construction and service jobs, creating strong employment opportunities. The City of Rochester reports it has surpassed $1 billion in building permit valuation for 2025, indicating a boom in commercial and residential development.
Education and infrastructure are also in the spotlight. The Wayzata School District is preparing a $465 million bond referendum to fund new schools, expansions, safety improvements, and flexible learning spaces—a response to surging enrollment, according to Finance & Commerce. The University of Minnesota’s Carlson School continues its $40-million modernization project, with completion slated for 2026, aiming to provide leading-edge learning spaces.
On the public safety front, police in Inver Grove Heights continue searching for a missing teenager, and a high-speed pursuit involving a Minnesota motorist led to an arrest in Iowa, per Minnesota News Network. Minnesota is also investing $7.5 million in broadband expansion grants this fall, seeking to connect over a thousand previously unserved locations, as the Office of Broadband Development outlines.
In weather, meteorologists warn that parts of southern Minnesota could receive up to five inches of snow as a new system moves in, according to CBS Minnesota. And earlier in November, Minnesotans enjoyed a rare display of the northern lights during one of the strongest solar storms in decades.
Looking ahead, the Minnesota State Fair has revealed its first main stage concert for 2026, with “Weird Al” Yankovic opening the Grandstand on August 28, per the Minnesota News Network. The state legislature’s return in February and local referendums promise lively discussions in the coming months.
