DNR Plans to Help Clean Up River Property in La Crosse
The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources awarded a $250,000 Brownfields grant to clean up what’s known as the 12 acre Patros property near the Black and Mississippi Rivers. Patros is part of a much larger 65 acre development the city of La Crosse owns just north of downtown. We talk with a DNR employee about the award and importance of the program that helps reclaim urban lands. We also talk with two La Crosse officials about plans to redevelop the land.
