 City officials say levels of the St. Croix River are starting to recede after cresting Monday in Stillwater. Public Works Director Sean Sanders says one restaurant was forced to close and parking lots were underwater, but the damage is minimal. He says that they put up jersey barriers to protect the downtown area, and crews are going to start taking them down and opening parking lots. Sanders says they think the river is going to drop fast so they can open everything by the end of the week.
