MINNEAPOLIS (CN) — The federal government said on Tuesday that a northern Minnesota resort lacks the legal standing to challenge Voyageurs National Park’s authority to enforce commercial permitting rules on park waterways.
The Justice Department urged U.S. District Judge John Tunheim to dismiss a lawsuit by Little House Resorts LLC, owner of a resort called “The Pines of Kabetogama” on the edge of Voyageurs. The business claims park officials are overstepping their jurisdiction by requesting long-standing shoreline businesses obtain Commercial Use Authorization permits to operate on Lake Kabetogama.
