Preservation.
Commission
decisions
and
use
approvals
for
these
will
come
back
through
council
and
I
will
move
all
five
items.
I
I
Thank
you,
madam
president,
on
item
number,
one
related
to
the
certificate
of
appropriateness
at
he
believed
721
North
first
street
north
loop,
I
appreciate
the
amendment
by
brought
by
councilmember
Johnson
dealing
with
the
aesthetic
and
I
also
appreciate
the
developers
willingness
to
to
cooperate
and
improve
the
building
to
a
to
a
brick
exterior
on,
and
also
comment
now
on,
item
number
two,
which
is
a
fairly
significant
project.
The
staff
direction
that
I
we
just
passed
was
predominantly
to
resist
setting
a
precedent
by
the
previous
action
in
the
historic
districts.
But
you
know
this.
I
This
project,
which
is
a
is
a
40-story
tower
on
the
east
side
of
the
river,
is
a
very
significant
and
I
think
what
were
what
we're
showing
here
is
the
concepts
of
both
growth
and
preservation
are
not
mutually
exclusive.
In
addition
to
preserving
our
history,
we
can
also
make
our
own
in
2016.
This
is
a
project
that
is
owner
occupied,
which
is
a
rare
occurrence.
These
days
add
substantially
to
the
tax
base.
I
Presently,
taxes
are
about
41,000
without
the
building
on
it,
with
the
building
on
it,
they're
about
2.5
million
and
obviously
tackles
our
goal
of
growing
the
city
as
well.
So
I
really
appreciate
all
of
the
input
from
neighbors
and
constituents
thoughtful.
It
was
reasonable
and
we
were
listening
throughout,
but
you
know
at
the
end
of
the
day,
we
need
to
make
a
decision,
and-
and
and
in
this
case
it
was
to
to
create
a
history
for
many
years
to
come.

H
A
Any
further
announcements
I
see
none,
I'm
just
going
to
mention
that
we
had
a
death
of
someone
in
North
Minneapolis,
who
is
she
actually
was
at
kathak
elder
care
for
a
number
of
years
lately,
but
sister
genes
Roth
died,
and
she
was
the
lady
that
founded
the
cookie
card
after
starting
baking
with
young
people
and
entertaining
them
in
her
home
and
she
outgrew
it
and
ended
up
with
a
sidewalk
art
to
start
with
and
now
a
cookie
card
and
an
expanded
cookie
card
on
West,
Broadway
and
now
entering
into
st.
Paul.
A
With
that
great
enterprise
and
I
noted
in
her
obituary
that
the
cookie
cart
has
served
ten
thousand
teens
so
far
in
its
existence
and
is
just
it's
a
wonderful
addition
to
our
community
and
she
will
she'll
be
greatly
missed.
The
other
thing
I
wanted
to
just
say
briefly,
is
that
our
city
Minneapolis,
is
gravely
concerned
and
distraught
with
what
happened
in
orlando
florida
and
I.
Just
we
have
a
very
large
vibrant
gay
community
in
our
city
and
I.
Think
for
us,
it's
especially
difficult
to
have
this
a
hate
surface
in
in
our
country
and
I.
A
Just
think.
In
light
of
this
being
the
pride
month
and
our
pride
celebration
coming
up
that
we
want
to
be
extra
vigilant
and
supportive
of
the
people
in
Orlando,
but
also
supportive
of
our
citizens
in
our
community.
That
are
really
hurting
and
I
would
just
like.
Take
a
moment
of
silence
for
the
people
in
Orlando.
A
A
A
Two
days
ago,
the
YMCA
teen
enrichment
center
on
West
Broadway
I
had
a
window
shattered
by
a
bullet
placed
that
young
people
gather
and
then
last
night
on
Hennepin
Avenue
I
am
hearing
that
there
was
a
shootout
on
Hennepin
