Letter to KFNA from Ward 8 3/20/20
If you are looking for updated information in response to COVID-19, please look to the City’s webpage dedicated to Coronavirus news and happenings.
Governor Tim Walz today signed an executive order to halt eviction proceedings during this emergency. Preventing the loss of housing during the COVID-19 crisis is critical to keep individual households, and the public at large, safe.
Today’s order states that tenants who can continue to pay rent should do so. It also states that landlords and financial institutions may not begin eviction proceedings that would remove tenants from stable housing. More information is available here.
Certified Metro Mobility customers can now order groceries and household essentials online from a store that has online shopping and local pick up. Metro Mobility will pick your order up and deliver to your house.
And the service is free — no fares for delivery. Delivery begins on Sunday, March 22.
You can book same day or in advance, for groceries and household essentials, just like you book a ride for yourself. You’ll receive your delivery within 60 minutes of the scheduled pickup time.
Stock your pantry with products, get fresh produce and other household essentials without leaving your house.
Just tell the store that Metro Mobility is picking up and provide us your order number as proof of purchase for pick up. Our four-bag limit remains in effect. Pickups must be scheduled at a commercial location. Drivers will verify your photo ID at drop-off.
If you have questions about whether you may or may not qualify for Metro Mobility, please contact our Customer Service staff: phone 651-602-1111*, TTY 651-221-9886, email: metromobility@metc.state.mn.us
A public service announcement created by Kingfield neighbor, Aaron Shaffer.
Kingfield volunteers have been hard at work helping KFNA by compiling data to share with their neighbors adjusting to this new quarantine. This includes the chart below with details for all our local and loved Kingfield restaurants and cafes, including their adjusted hours, delivery and pick-up opportunities, and online gift-card purchase links. Thanks to neighbors Sara Kelly and Evan Bretzman for collaborating to create this information together.

You can continue supporting our small business community by purchasing gift cards at our local businesses, ideally over the phone or online. It is an easy way to support them with critical cash flow during this crisis, allowing you to redeem them later when the virus spread has subsided.
