Iron Range Resources Board kicks off new term this week

Some fodder from Sunday’s Mesabi Daily News:

The Iron Range Resources Board convenes Wednesday in St. Paul for its first official meeting of the new term this week. On the docket, some financing for mining projects that might have some short term job creation benefits but that mostly involve capital improvements to local mines.

Because of term limits, State Rep. David Dill (DFL-Crane Lake) is out as IRR chairman and all indications are that State Sen. David Tomassoni (DFL-Chisholm) is in. The MDN is running a story Tuesday about Tomassoni’s vision for his two years in the chair. The question isn’t whether this story will include the word “jobs,” but rather whether the word “jobs” will be used more than 50 times and/or as a verb.
