From YouTube: January 13, 2016 Committee of the Whole
Description
Minneapolis Committee of the Whole Meeting
A
Good
morning,
I
am
calling
to
order
our
regularly
scheduled
meeting
of
the
committee
of
the
whole.
My
name
is
elizabeth
glidden,
and
I
am
the
chair
of
this
committee
and
I'm
joined
by
council
members.
Gordon
Cano
Reich,
vendor
gang
war,
Sami
Goodman
fry
palmisano
I
think
we
may
have
a
couple
others
joining
us.
I
will
note
that
both
the
council
member,
andrew
johnson
and
council
member
john
quincy
will
not
be
able
to
join
us
there
on
city
business.
Today
we
have
one
item.
B
President,
there
are
13
items
on
our
agenda
for
Friday
items
1
to
1
on
to
our
land
sales.
Id
number
3
is
moving
forward
with
selling
side
yard
properties
that
are
not
buildable.
Two
adjacent
owners
all
in
one
large
lump
sum
action.
So
staff
is
now
directed
to
work
with
these
different
property
owners
to
see
if
we
can
get
these
sold
office
side
yards
item.
3
is
the
land
sale
for
the
North
nicollet
hotel
block
to
United
properties?
There's
an
amended
report.
I
don't
know
if
that's
gone
out
already
or
not.
I
have
seen
it.
B
It
looks
like
we've
come
to
some
kind
of
consensus
with
them
on
that,
so
we'll
be
moving
forward
with
that
land
sale
tomorrow.
Item
5
is
a
rental
license.
Revocation
I'll
note:
this
is
the
issue
of
Mahmoud
Khan.
We
had
a
very
lengthy,
quasi-judicial
public
hearing
in
committee
and
the
committee's
recommendation
is
to
revoke
the
42
licenses
for
40
are
the
licenses
for
42
properties
and
it
will
probably
go
to
court
after
this,
so
everyone
will
not
be
evicted
on
Friday
item
number
6
or
the
regular
liquor
business
and
gambling
licenses.
B
7,
8
and
9
are
licensed
settlement
conferences.
10
is
the
redevelopment
of
44-14
humboldt
avenue.
This
is
the
former
Kowalski's
grocery
store
site.
This
is
asking
that
the
city
get
revisionary
rights.
Should
the
gross
new
grocery
store
project
not
move
forward?
Item
number
11
is
a
memorandum
of
understanding
with
the
park
and
recreation
board.
B
With
regard
to
the
upper
harbour
terminal
item
number
12
is
a
resolution
approving
a
redevelopment
plan
for
an
industrial
section
of
the
bassett
creek
valley
as
part
of
the
bat
sir
Creek
Valley
master
plan
item
13
is
a
modification
to
the
common
project,
redevelopment
plan
and
tax
increment
districts
with
regard
to
using
that
as
a
potential
potential
source
at
lake
and
nicollet
and
swapping
out
other
sources.
An
item
number
14
is
a
non-emergency
and
emergency
boarding
contract
with
that
I'll.
Happily,
answer
questions
on
items
1
through
14
all.
C
Mm
chair
I
just
want
to
acknowledge.
We
have
KC
Java
shamsky
in
the
room
in
Casey's,
been
just
very
involved
in
this
44th
on
Humboldt
property,
which
is
unique
because
it
is
owned
by
the
county
and
they
need
our
consent
to
do
work
in
our
city
and
it's
a
complicated
project
and
I
appreciate
his
good
work
and
representing
our
interests
and
moving
forward
on
what
will
be
an
exciting
development.
You.
A
D
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
Just
briefly
regarding
the
nicollet
hotel
block
parcel.
What's
coming
forward
for
friday
is
an
authorization
of
the
the
final
signing,
an
agreement
for
the
term
sheet,
and
what
we
are
hoping
to
do
is
link
the
term
sheet,
as
well
as
the
development
agreement
to
the
design
itself.
So
any
any
approval
of
the
term
sheet
will
ultimately
be
contingent
on
getting
a
favorable
approval
from
the
full
council
and
the
design.
A
E
You,
madam
vice
president,
the
health
environment
and
community
engagement
committee
is
bringing
forward
seven
items.
These
all
pass
the
committee
on
consent,
so
there
wasn't
any
discussion
or
controversy.
The
first
has
to
do
with
confirming
the
appointments
to
the
Minneapolis
Advisory
Committee
and
people
with
disabilities.
Second,
is
approving
appointments
to
the
Minneapolis
Public
Health
Advisory
Committee.
The
third
item
is
formally
passing
a
resolution
to
recognize
the
City
Council
as
the
community
health
board
for
the
city
of
Minneapolis,
and
this
is
so
we
can
be
recognized
by
the
state.
E
E
The
sixth
item
is
a
resolution
that
delegates
Authority
to
the
Commissioner
health
to
enter
into
a
cost-share
funding
agreements.
This
is
in
order
to
kind
of
streamline
and
make
clear
our
green
business
program
and
cost-sharing
program
so
that
we
have
a
better
contract
with
those
groups
and
we've
been
using
in
the
past,
and
the
last
item
is
just
authorizing.
An
agreement

firm
italic
ellingson,
helped
consulting
to
provide

any
questions.
