DNR to appeal court's ruling about naming of Bde Maka Ska

The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources has announced that it will appeal the Minnesota Court of Appeals' recent decision regarding the naming of Bde Maka Ska in Minneapolis. The DNR will submit its petition for review to the Minnesota Supreme Court by May 29.

According to Minnesota DNR Commissioner Sarah Strommen, “DNR is very concerned with the implications of the Appeals Court’s ruling for our ability to work with county boards to reflect community standards in how the state’s waters are named. We have long worked with counties in eliminating offensive or derogatory names.

“We are also concerned with another aspect of the Appeals Court’s decision. Specifically, it opens the door for people to challenge a range of final agency decisions well after established appeals periods. This presents the potential for considerable disruption in the normal order of government decision making.”

In its ruling Monday, the Minnesota Court of Appeals reversed DNR’s January 2018 approval of Hennepin County’s request to rename Lake Calhoun as Bde Maka Ska. DNR based its approval on the longstanding understanding of its authority under relevant state statute, the fact that Bde Maka Ska meets all state naming criteria, and the fact that Hennepin County met all public process and other procedural requirements in asking DNR to approve the name change request.

So you wanna rename Lake Calhoun?  Fine.

But we live in America where we speak English.  How about we give it an English name next time?

whats even more disturbing is these idiot lawmakers peddling for votes trying to quickly add or attach this friggin crap to other bills. kinda like the wolf thing.  :mad1: :mad1: :mad1: :mad1: :censored: :censored:

if there's one law that needs to pass is each bill gets introduced individually and it gets passed or rejected on its own merits!!!!!!! :happy1: :happy1:
