WINONA, Minn. – Mayor Scott Sherman isn’t counting any chickens before they hatch. But he’s thinking ahead. Money from the projected $7.7 billion state surplus and from the U.S. $1.2 trillion infrastructure act is sure to come, but Sherman says he’s had no firm advance information on how much r what limits there might be. “We’re identifying those needs within our own city so we can be ready for when those packages do come through,” Sherman said in a KWNO interview.  It’s possible, he said, the trickle-down aid could lower city tax levies in future years.
