Is it time to rethink DMC's priorities?

Is it time to rethink DMC's priorities?

Episode 11 of Rochester Rundown is now live. This week, Isaac dives into Thursday's Destination Medical Center Corporation board meeting, the first since Covid-19 threw the global economy into chaos. The leaders of the $5.6 billion initiative, the largest public-private partnership in Minnesota history, now must decide what DMC can and should be as staff begins to draw up the board's next five-year plan. Can DMC financially support small businesses? Is it within their limitations to do so? What will have to be sacrificed as the local government tightens its budget? The eight people at the top of the organization had some interesting things to say.

As a reminder, new episodes of the Rochester Rundown can also be found on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Stitcher and other leading podcast services.
