La Isla Mexican Restaurant is growing in Herington with a new, larger location at 557 US Highway 77. Family-owned by Adan and Lorena Ramirez, the restaurant combines authentic Mexican favorites, colorful handcrafted décor, and a welcoming atmosphere that keeps customers coming back.

Chapman, Enterprise, Herington, and Dickinson County were recognized for 2025 Community Development Block Grant awards supporting projects ranging from historic building restoration and park improvements to wastewater infrastructure and downtown revitalization.

Economic development builds the engine, while community development builds the place. In Dickinson County, the two must work together to create vibrant communities where businesses can thrive, residents want to stay, and new opportunities can take root.
