Collision Corner has been a cornerstone of the Maple Plain community for over 41 years, providing expert auto body services and serving the community. It's more than just a business; it’s a part of the community fabric, employing local residents, supporting other local businesses, and consistently participating in Orono school funding. That's why it's so disheartening to witness the actions seemingly targeted at pushing this longstanding business out of town.

The City Council majority and the Mayor's recent decision to revoke Collision Corner's Interim Use Permit (IUP) appears to be veiled in intentions that do not serve the community's best interest. We believe that Collision Corner is being unfairly targeted merely because some might prefer to see an end to auto body businesses. However, such decisions should not be made in silos by a few elected officials but should involve the community, which is directly impacted by these changes.

This pivotal business deserves to continue operating, and its permit should reflect its longstanding contribution to the local economy.

We urge the City Council and Mayor to reconsider and reinstate the IUP for Collision Corner. Let us ensure that Maple Plain remains a place that values small businesses and listens to the voices of its residents. Decisions that uphold fairness and transparency benefit us all.
