• Notice of Mortgage Foreclosure Sale – Daniel Farder – Thief River Falls Times & Northern Watch (trftimes.com) — A Mendota Heights law firm is handling a federal mortgage foreclosure involving a Thief River Falls home, with a sheriff's sale scheduled for December 8, 2026. While the property is in Pennington County, the notice lists the Mendota Heights office managing the process and outlines key dates, redemption rights, and potential requirements for auction bidders. 
• Minnesota Activates Work-Zone Speed Cameras on I-35W, Warning Drivers 10 MPH Over Limit (town.news) — Minnesota has activated work-zone speed cameras on I-35W in Burnsville, and the broader pilot program also authorizes Mendota Heights to test its own automated systems in coming years. For now, only warning letters—not tickets—will be issued to drivers going 10 mph or more over the work-zone limit, as MnDOT studies whether the technology improves safety and reduces crashes.
