The Minnesota Court of Appeals ruled today that the former Minnesota Department of Natural Resources Commissioner lacked authority to rename Lake C*lhoun MPRB Board President Brad Bourn shared the following statement regarding the ruling: “While it saddens me that 318 property “owners” on stolen Dakota land around Bde Maka Ska calling themselves “Save Lake Calhoun” have prevailed at this stage, I know that we’re standing on the right side of history and that its arc bends towards justice.
