Flooded mobile home parks put to different uses
This southern Minnesota town, hit hard by flooding last summer, is getting rid of a mobile harm park and will replace it with a city park. Most of the 19 units at the Brookwood Mobile Home Park in St. Charles flooded on Aug. 19 after heavy rains in the region. The homes were uninhabitable when the water dropped. The city is working on mustering about $800,000 from federal, state and local funds in order to buy the land, demolish the trailers and erect a new park.
