Last headlines I saw involving this story said the hog company was offering over a million dollars to the Mason City school system and that they were concerned about law and order at the next council meeting down there.

Looks like Albert Lea is making different plans for the former hog plant site. So I guess they couldn't move there either.

As far as the speculation on Owatonna:

It has been discussed here before. People seem to not pay attention. The closer proximity to the Twin Cities area. the Highway 14 corridor, and Buzz Kaplan's procurement of Cabela's just to name three things have lead to a palpable lively Owatonna.

QUOTE
In fact, Cabela's of Owatonna quickly became the No. 2 retail destination in Minnesota behind the Mall of America.

As far as logistics go AL's stellar, US highways, two interstates and two railroads. What's happened is miss management, a town with leaders of little vision.

Meanwhile, Austin renovates its downtown (the one-fourth of it they haven't demolished in the last decade, anyway) and acts like the SPAM Museum is some sort of destination, like Wall Drug or the Corn Palace. The stupid is strong in these morons, as criminal elements from Chicago and Milwaukee take hold, against a backdrop of cries from the former mayor for "Diversity!" someone so short-sighted that the moment her own neighborhood became diverse, she felt the need to move out of it.

Be careful what you wish for...

Last at time the wife's family was here they couldn't wait to go to the Spam museum They loved it and bought a bunch of weird spam including 3 cans for us. That was 5 years ago and the spam is still in the cupboard and will never be eaten unless there's a zombie apocalypse.
