Lodging—for visitors and tourists—is an issue that frequently comes up during Minnesota Design Team (MDT) visits. The lack of adequate lodging can deter visitors and be a detriment to businesses, ultimately impacting the quality of life in a community.

Join us for a presentation and Q&A with Lee Kerfoot. Lee is a hotel broker and part of a family with long experience in the tourism and hospitality industry. He will help us understand how to assess the realistic opportunities that MDT communities have to expand their lodging offerings and how these can enhance the built environment and support a vibrant community.


The Minnesota Design Team (MDT) Committee meets every month on the third Wednesday at 4:30–5:30 pm. Meetings are held virtually on Zoom. Once you have registered to attend, you will receive an email from Zoom containing meeting login information.
