Hello,
everyone,
I'm
carrie
christensen,
I'm
with
the
minneapolis
park
and
recreation
board,
I'm
a
senior
planner
there
and
I'm
going
to
be
speaking
with
you
this
evening
about
a
park
project
that
is
online
now
and
happy
to
be
here.
Thanks
for
having
me,
I'm
going

Okay
motion
carries
one
more
item
of
business.
It's
our
minutes
from
our
last
meeting.
I
I
do
have
a
question
before
I
move
for
approval.
I
noticed
there
is
and
I'm
drawing
a
blank.
I
don't
have
it
in
front
of
me,
but
there
was
a
presentation
provided
and
at
the
end
of
the
presentation
it
says,
motion
to
approve
is
that
was
that
just
kind
of
an
out
of
place
statement.
A
B
A
C
B
H
B
D
B
A
A
A
D
All
right
give
me
one
moment
here:
I'm
gonna
pull
up.
I
had
a
couple
of
screens
open,
so
I
just
need
to
transition
shortly
here,
all
right,
so
hi
everyone
again.
I
am
carrie
christensen
with
the
park
board
for
those
of
you
that
maybe
missed
my
introduction.
I'm
a
senior
planner
and
I'm
here
today
to
talk
to
you
about
a
new
park
project
that
is
coming
online
and
this
park
is
now
called
graco
park.
It's
it's
along
the
river
in
northeast
minneapolis.
D
The
bridge
that
you
see
in
this
photo
is
the
plymouth
bridge
and
then
the
street
running
along
the
park
is
sibley.
Street
marshall
is
kind
of
back
there
behind
it
down
here.
You'll
see
boom
island
park.
So
if
you
know
the
little
lighthouse
on
the
island,
those
are
all
kind
of
points
of
reference
if
you're
familiar
with
this
part
of
the
river.
So
it's
it's
considered
above
the
falls
which
is,
is
you
know
the?
D
The
river
to
to
public
access
and
shifting
away
from
industry
so
really
kind
of
a
reclaiming
of
the
river
for
habitat
purposes,
for
for
people
to
be
close
to
and
access
the
river
for
lots
of
different
functions,
and
you
can
see
on
the
site
here
that
there's
currently
a
trail
also
that
passes
through
what
we
call
graco
park,
and
that
is
a
critical
part
of
this.
This
park
design,
but
you
can
see
that
there's
not
a
whole
lot
else.
Right
like
this
is
a
it's
a
pretty
blank
slate
and
minneapolis
park
board.
D
So
we
we
work.
You
may
be
familiar
with
our
processes,
but
we
always
start
with
a
master
plan
for
a
park
design.
So
we've
got
a
big
picture.
10
000
foot
view
of
what
what
we
want
the
park
to
be.
We
work
with
community
committees
like
yours
to
get
input
on
what
that
park
should
be
in.
You
know,
in
balance
with
all
the
other
perks
in
the
system,
and
then
we,
you
know
we
sort
of
dial
in
and
say
all
right.
D
How
do
we
implement
this?
Sometimes
it
takes
20
years
to
implement.
Sometimes
it
takes
10.
I
mean
it's,
it's
not
very
often
that
we
actually
get
to
kind
of
create
a
park
where
there
hasn't
been
one
in
our
system
and
graco
park
is
is
an
example
of
that
where
about
10
years
ago
we
acquired
this
land,
it
was
called
sure
brothers,
lumber
yard.
If
you,
if
you're
an
old-time
minneapolis
resident,
you
may
remember
it
as
a
lumber
yard.
D
D
District
actually
rebuilt
the
island
with
the
the
primary
function
of
it,
acting
as
habitat,
there's
really
interesting
animals
and
wildlife
in
this
part
of
the
river
there's
actually
there's
actually
native
mussels
occurring
in
the
river
that
some
of
the
there's
some
soil,
medium
and
stuff
along
the
shore.
That's
there,
especially
for
those
mussels
if
you've
seen
the
herons
there's
great
blue
herons
along
the
river
here,
of
course,
lots
of
other
different
migratory
birds
that
rely
on
these
wild
spaces
along
the
river.
D
D
There
was
a
there
was
an
interesting
legal
action
that
was
that
happened
a
couple
years
ago,
where
we
had
the
park
board
had
an
easement,
so
the
adjacent
landowner
is
called
graco.
They
are
a
production
and
processing.
I
think
they
do.
They
create
pumps,
you
know
so
they
have
like
a
industrial
use
of
the
site
and
we
had
an
easement.
So
we
had,
we
had.
You
know
basically
approval
to
go
to
take
the
trail
in
front
of
their
headquarters,
but
then
they
ended
up
saying.
D
We
we
also
so
then
you
know
we're
looking
now
at
saying
all
right.
We
thought
we
were
going
to
be
developing
this
park
in
10
years,
but
we
actually
get
to
start
to
work
on
it
now.
So
that's
what
we're
out
in
community
working
with
these
kind
of
high
level
ideas
that
were
put
forth
in
a
master
plan
10
years
ago
and
coming
back
out
the
community
and
saying
okay,
we've
got
this
opportunity
to
build
out
this
new
park
along
the
river.
D
D
We
have
three
concepts
that
I'm
going
to
share
with
you
tonight
design
concepts
for
your
feedback.
I
wanted
to
come
to
you
all.
You
know,
rather
than
coming
once
a
month
thought
just
to
come
when
this
is
a
really
kind
of
meaty
time
for
for
conversation
in
the
process
and
trying
to
work
with
a
lot
of
the
standing
committees
at
the
city
for
input
at
this
stage,
including
neighborhood,
also
neighborhood
organizations.
D
We've
engaged
with
youth
we've
engaged
with
local
community
groups,
cultural
groups
so,
and
also
always
looking
for
other
other
groups
to
work
with
and
get
input
from.
So
if
there
are
other
groups
that
you're
affiliated
with
you'd
like
to
invite
us
to
come
and
speak
by
all
means,
please
please
let
me
know
drop
me
a
line
I'll
share
my
email,
my
phone
number
at
the
end
of
the
presentation,
all
right,
so
just
quick
timeline
overall
with
the
project.
D
Why
don't
we
do
this,
so
I'm
unable
to
see
chat
right
now.
So
I
wonder
if,
if
you
have
questions
go
ahead
and
put
them
in
the
chat
and
then
maybe
at
the
end,
I'll
close
up
the
presentation
and
then
I
can
look
at
the
chat
and
just
respond
to
all
the
questions
at
once.
Does
that
work
for
everyone
rather
than
oh
sure,
no
problem,
and
then
we.
C
D
You
know
as
we
as
after
I
present
and
then
I
can
also
go
through
the
chat
and
respond
to
questions
so
feel
free
to
ask
questions
in
either
way.
Just
know
that
we'll
have
time
at
the
end
for
a
conversation.
Thanks
for
that
question.
Does
that
work
for
everyone?
If
I
don't
hear
anything
I'll
assume
it.
D
Works
great
thanks.
Okay,
so
then
this
fall.
We
bring
the
final
concept,
the
park,
design
to
our
board,
the
park
board
of
commissioners
to
approve
and
then
starting
in
spring
of
2022,
we'll
we'll
start
putting
the
turning
the
wheels
on
on
the
construction
process.
So
we
send
it
out
to
bid.
Hopefully
the
bids
come
back.
Construction
industry
is
a
little
crazy
right
now,
as
you
may
know,
so
we
will
then
come
back
and
start
construction
this
hopefully
next
summer,
all
right.
D
D
All
right
so
just
wanted
to
give
a
quick
overview
of
what
we
did
in
the
first
round
of
engagement.
So
again,
I
think
I
mentioned
a
lot
of
these
neighborhood
meetings.
We
did
some
popper
pop-up
meetings
in
the
park
itself.
Of
course,
we're
kind
of
limited
with
what
we
can
do
in
person
these
days,
but
also
have
are
convening
a
project
advisory
committee,
a
technical
advisory
committee,
lots
of
online
engagement
and
outreach
public
open
house,
and
we
also
had
a
youth
engagement,
bus
tour.
D
And
then,
just
always,
you
know
it's
important
for
us
at
the
park
board
to
try
to
track
who
we're
hearing
from
so
with
the
online
responses.
We
were
able
to
to
collect
demographic
information
so
just
looking
at
ethnicity,
gender
and
age,
roughly
representative
of
the
the
city
of
minneapolis
residential
population.
D
D
A
lot
of
interest
in
extreme
sports,
like
skate
parks
or
pump
tracks
trail,
is
such
a
big
part
of
this
park.
So
I
can
talk
more
about
the
trail,
but
you
know
the
east
bank
trail.
The
idea
is
it'll.
It'll
connect
all
the
way
up
and
down
the
river.
You
know
from
st
paul
to
the
city
limits
eventually
and
if
you've
traveled
the
northeast
and
southeast
minneapolis
trails
along
the
river.
You
know
that
there's
several
kind
of
gaps
along
the
way
in
part
because
of
its
industrial
past.
So
how
do
we?
D
D
D
You
know
concessions,
food
ways
for
folks
to
kind
of
be
in
the
park
and
enjoy
you
know,
experience,
entertainment,
education
and
interpretation
were
a
really
big,
also
sort
of
priority
for
folks
and
then
we're
starting
to
work
our
way
down
the
list.
Maybe
I'll
I'll
stop
here
and
just
say
you
know,
arts
and
then
community
gathering
are
two
other
topics
that
I
think
really
rose
to
the
top.
D
But
all
these
topics
on
this
list
are
things
that
came
up
during
the
engagement
that
people
were
interested
in,
so
really
all
of
these
could
be
considered
priorities.
I
just
focused
on
the
first
top
half
of
the
list
and
then
so
this
idea
of
a
park
board
building
which
I'm
going
to
talk
more
about
we're,
really
trying
to
re-envision
what
park
board
building
might
be
on
this
site,
so
moving
away
from
a
traditional
rec
center,
so
recreation
center
model,
which,
if
you
have
a
neighborhood
park
near
you,
you
may
have
experienced
a
recreation
center.
D
They
you
know
typically
will
have
park
board
programming,
sometimes
public
restrooms
and
are
certainly
really
important,
anchoring
institutions
in
neighborhoods.
This
is
a
regional
park,
so
it's
meant
to
serve
a
broader
community
and
we're
thinking
a
little
differently
about
what
this
building
will
be.
So
we
still
hope
to
have
community
space
in
the
building-
and
you
know
just
general
very
flexible
uses
there
and
as
well
as
having
tenants
that
can
help
us
have
eyes
on
the
space
or
help
us
keep
the
building
open
longer
hours.
If
you've
gone
to
a
rec
center.
D
D
So
we
heard
indoor
outdoor
flow
so
that
connection
between
the
park
and
the
inside
is
important.
We
heard
this
multi-purpose
community
space
was
important
to
folks.
We
heard
public
restrooms
are
really
important.
We
heard
sustainable
building
materials
were
important
again.
That
idea
of
vendors
or
food
and
drink
concessions
came
up
as
something
also
comments
specifically
related
to
gender,
neutral,
restrooms,
music
connections
to
the
river
education
spaces
workshops,
again,
that
incorporation
of
art,
rec
and
fitness
spaces,
and
on
so
again
the
kind
of
list
goes
on.
D
D
D
Here,
there's
an
idea
of
a
tunnel
so
when
we
think
about
getting
across
you
know
between
parks,
how
do
we,
how
do
we
do
that
and
one
of
the
ideas
that
that
we're
playing
with
and
really
exploring
pretty
deeply?
Is
this
idea
of
an
underpass
or
a
tunnel
connecting
boom
island
to
greco
park,
which
is
a
pretty
expensive
undertaking,
but
we
are
we're
very
seriously
considering
it.
The
bridge
you
know
going
by
the
river
is
another
idea,
but
there's
actually
really
limited
clearance
between
the
river
and
the
bridge.
D
Just
where
the
bridge
was
constructed,
it
would
require
like
a
full
ridge
reconstruction
which
is
not
not
our
bridge
to
reconstruct
and
then
there's
future
trail
connections.
Like
I
mentioned,
there's
sort
of
fragmented
parts
of
the
east
bank
trail
then
even
need
to
get
resolved
over
in
boom
island
and
there's
a
big
parking
lot
in
boom
island,
which
is
just
across
the
street
and
then
a
lot
of
green
space
down
in
boom
island.
D
D
We
heard
all
these
great
ideas
in
the
first
round
of
engagement
and
now
what
do
you
think,
like
here's,
our
best,
our
best
shots
at
at
some
ideas,
the
concepts
you
know
the
final
concept,
this
fall
will
likely
be
a
combination
of
all
three
concepts
that
we're
going
to
be
looking
at
now
and
it
won't.
It
won't
be
like
concept,
one
is
the
winner
right,
so
there's
going
to
be
bits
and
elements
and
aspects
of
each
of
the
concepts
that
will
that
will
be
incorporated
into
the
final
design.
A
A
A
Another
question
is
really
centered
around
wave
fighting,
particularly
for
folks
that
are
blind
use,
wheelchairs
or
death
or
limited
mobility
to
maneuver
around
the
park
and
the.
I
believe,
what
you
call
interpretation,
so
braille,
signage
and
and
and
whatnot
and
along,
and
then
I
think,
just
when
we're
talking
about
the
treatment
for
the
safe
inner,
safe
crossing
for
pedestrian
crossing
bus
stops
as
well
and
then
kind
of
what
the
trail
makeups
are
like.
D
D
The
concept
one
the
park
is
laid
out
along
a
critical
piece
of
the
east
bank
trail
linking
boom
island
and
the
central
mississippi
riverfront
regional
park
to
the
still
evolving
above
the
falls
regional
park.
So,
as
I
mentioned,
we're
reclaiming
park
land
up
and
down
the
river.
That's
the
above.
The
falls
regional
park
using
a
passage
under
8th
avenue
northeast
the
east
bank
trail
offers
a
pedestrian
and
bicyclists
an
experience
uninterrupted
by
roadways
of
by
you
know
by
like
by
roadways.
So
this
is
the
one
concept
that
has
that
underpass
that's
number
12.
D
The
past
rejoined
at
the
point
where
the
east
bank
trail
leads
upstream
to
sheridan
memorial
park,
where
a
pedestrian
bridge
spans
the
new
channel
the
halls
island
here,
and
then
it
heads
upstream
there
to
to
sheridan,
while
the
southern
portion
of
the
park
is
open
for
views
to
the
island
and
allows
for
open
and
unprogrammed
field
play.
The
northern
portion
of
the
park
is
divided
into
a
series
of
smaller
activity
zones.
So
in
this
the
activity
zones
that
we
have
called
out
here
would
be
like
a
sand.
D
Volleyball
court
could
be
an
option
for
an
activity
and
then
there's
also
dog
park
concept,
and
that's
number
six
in
that
northern
area.
You've
got
the
buildings
along
sibley,
and
so
the
idea
is
there
might
be
a
future
vendor
site
here,
which
is
that
that
concessions
piece.
That's
not
something
we'll
be
building
out
in
this
stage.
Let's
just
note
it
as
a
future
future
project
potentially
and
then
the
mprv
multi-use,
building
and
community
office
building
could
be
in
two
separate
buildings.
D
There
would
be
public
restrooms
here
and
when
we
start
getting
down
into
the
building
design.
That
is
the
time
when
things
like
adult,
changing
tables
and
configurations
of
public
restroom
designs
will
be
will
be
out
for
comment
as
well,
so
this
fall.
These
are
really
at
that.
Still
at
that
sort
of
five
thousand
foot
view
this
fall.
When
we
come
back
out
with
preferred
concept,
we
will
have
actually
a
building
design
as
well.
D
So
folks
can
review
more
closely
at
that
stage,
but
I
am
going
to
carry
your
comments
tonight
around
building
design
specifics
to
our
design
team
so
that
they
can
have
that
information
for
the
design
process.
So
anything
you
know
anything
is
really
helpful
now,
so,
let's
see
the
parking.
I
know
that
was
a
question.
D
The
the
thought
is,
you
know:
there's
not
a
ton
of
room
on
this
site
to
do
another
big
parking
lot,
there's
actually
a
lot
of
unused
parking
at
boom
island
across
the
street.
So
the
concept
here
is
that,
can
you
know
consider
big
event
parking
at
boom
island?
The
underpass
would
be
how
people
would
get
to
graco
park.
D
The
fifth
number
15
shows
a
small
parking
lot
would
be
more
for
loading
or
accessible
spots
would
be
focused
on
at
15..
There's
also
street
parking
on
sibley.
So
there
are
additional
spots
there.
If
you're
interested
in
parking,
I
can
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
split
path,
so
the
park
board
in
general.
We
really
try
to
split
pedestrian
and
bike
paths
whenever
possible,
whenever
there's
space
and
so
having
pedestrian
circulation
go
one
way
and
bikes
go
another
way.
D
D
D
All
right
I'm
going
to
keep.
This
is
a
a
rendering
of
that
sort
of
a
3d,
axon
and
metric
axonometric.
You
know
view
of
the
site.
There
is
a
future
building
that
graco
will
likely
be
putting
on
that
on
the
area
kind
of
behind
the
park
which
is
called
out
in
this
drawing
and
that
they've
talked
about
even
a
six-story
high
building.
So
if
you
think
about
the
park,
it's
important
to
kind
of
keep
in
your
mind's
eye.
This
idea
of
a
big
backdrop
of
a
building.
D
A
D
Yeah
absolutely
and
that
you
know
what
at
the
end
of
after
that,
when
I
go
through
two
more
concepts
and
then
I
have
actually
some
intersection
treatments
that
I'm
going
to
share
with
you
for
feedback
as
well.
So
if
that's
all
right
I'll
come
to
that
in
a
moment
after
I
run
through
the
concept,
so
this
is
the
intersection
that
we're
talking
about
right
there
anything
anything
else,
anything
jumping
out
at
folks
about
this
concept
that
you're,
you
know
that
looks,
appealing
or
looks,
challenging
or
is
not
appealing.
A
D
All
right
so
concept,
two,
this
is,
let's
see,
I'm
gonna
pull
my
notes
up
here.
The
park
is
centered
on
a
gathering
space,
bordered
by
buildings
and
landscape,
extending
eastward
as
an
events
plaza
and
westward
to
a
viewing
platform
over
the
gravel
landing
and
the
new
channel
created
by
the
hall's
island.
D
It's
almost
like
a
dock
right
so
in
the
dock-like
fashion,
the
gathering
space
links
the
neighborhood
to
the
river
and
becomes
the
front
door
to
and
connection
between
the
park,
activating
buildings
pathways
link
through
the
site,
filling
the
gap
of
the
east
bank
trail
between
boom
and
central,
mississippi,
riverfront
regional
park
and
the
above.
The
falls
regional
park.
Broad
green
on
the
south
side
of
the
dock
affords
opportunities
for
gathering
and
play
with
views
of
the
new
island
and
yeah.
These
dotted
lines
I
just
on
each
of
the
renderings-
are
actually
a
flood
barrier.
D
A
D
Capturing
that
correctly,
yeah
yeah,
like
this
one's
this
first
concept,
a
little
more
programmed
right
with
the
splash
pad
and
volleyball
courts
and
a
dog
park,
but
also
the
buildings
are
really
kind
of
stuck
back
along
sibley
street,
and
this
one
is
bringing
the
buildings
out
into
the
site.
Creating
this
like
central
plaza
with
a
big
green
space,
but
much
less
programmed.
D
E
Yeah,
this
is
harvey
speaking.
I
think
number
one
is
a
lot
better
because
there
already
are
a
lot
of
recreational
paths
or
walking
paths,
etc,
etc,
available
particularly
north
of
where
this
park,
or
this
place
is
going
to
be
or
on
the
east
side
of
the
river
there's
a
lot
of
stuff
already
there
I
mean.
Why
would
we
want
a
double?
I
think
number
one
is
great
as
far
as
visible
there's
some
activities
there.
D
D
All
right,
so
this
is
concept
three,
since
you
are
the
first
group
that
I'm
presenting
this
to
these
are
actually
hot
off
the
press.
I
got
them
from
the
design.
Team
literally
got
them
to
nick
in,
like
five
minutes
to
four
last
night,
and
he
was
wonderful
for
accommodating
our
last
minute.
Bringing
this
to
you
and
you
know
we
we're
just
really
opening
up.
We
haven't
even
gotten
the
website
live
by
the
way
that
we
intend
to
get
that
live
by
this
coming
monday.
D
So,
if
you're
interested
in
doing
a
deeper
dive
and
looking
at
these
and
doing
some
writing
about
it,
there
will
definitely
be
I'll
share
a
website
with
you.
But
again
it's
not
quite
live.
We
just
wanted
to
make
sure
to
come
and
speak
with
you.
So
this
is
important
to
to
just
get
this
to
you
now,
but
this
concept
is
still
a
little
bit
in
development.
It's
it's!
It's
heavier
on
the
habitat
side,
so
it's
really
got
a
lot
of
tree
canopy.
D
You
can
see
all
those
green
circles
represent
additional
tree
canopy
and
the
buildings
kind
of
playing
with
some
of
the
historic
lines
of
the
site,
so
the
rail
spur
and
water
street,
but
then
also
intermingling
again
with
habitat,
so
kind
of
this
historical
play
on
the
site.
There's
also
a
proposed
art
walk,
so
these
small
boxes
represent
public
art
pieces
and
this
one
too,
there's
no
bridge
out
to
the
island.
It's
more
of
an
overlook.
D
All
of
the
projects,
all
of
the
three
concepts
do
include
storm
water
treatment.
So
whenever
we
add
impervious
surfaces
or
hard
surfaces
to
a
park,
just
like
any
other
property
owner
in
the
city,
we
need
to
offset
that
or
try
to
capture
our
storm
stormwater
or
else
you
know
we
pay
fees,
so
capturing
stormwater
in
the
park
will
also
be
kind
of
incorporated
into
all
of
the
different
design
concepts.
D
All
right
so
now
I'm
going
to
come
to
the
intersection
treatments.
So
here
we
are
that's.
This
is
graco
park.
This
is
the
current
trail,
which
you
know
may
this
this
trail
will
get
rebuilt
and
again
will
likely
be
separated
bike
and
pedestrian
viking
pedestrian.
And
when
we
talk
about
what
this
will
look
like
it's,
you
know
in
all
of
the
iterations,
whether
there's
an
underpass
or
not.
We
will
work,
we've
already
started
working
with
the
city
and
we
hope
to
continue.
D
The
city
to
make
improvements
at
this
manufacturers,
so
the
potential
intersection
safety
improvements
include
pedestrian
flashers,
curb
extensions,
raised
crossings,
protected
intersection
safety,
islands,
two-way
bikeway,
transitions,
mixing
zones
and
access
control.
I
know
that's
a
lot
of
traffic
jargon,
but
of
some
graphics
here,
just
to
give
some
examples
of
what
those
look
like
these
are
both
from
the
city
of
minneapolis
street
design,
guide
and
then
from
mndot
has
a
bike
facility
design
manual
and
the
the
thing
about
this
road
plymouth
is
actually
a
state
aid
road
which
there
is
there.
D
D
I'm
not
I'm
not
a
traffic
engineer
right,
so
I'm
I
I
don't
have
all
the
nuts
and
bolts
answers
potentially,
but
would
just
be
curious
if
there
are
different
crossing
experiences,
especially
unsignalized
crossings
that
from
different
elements
of
crossing
a
road
like
plymouth.
That
would
be
helpful
for
us
to
consider
as
we
move
into
the
design
of
this
we're
just
you
know
we're
just
kind
of
examining
options
we
haven't
proposed
any
of
these.
D
It
could
be
many
of
these
right,
so
it
could
be
a
curb
extension
with
the
median
refuge
island
with
the
rapid
flashing
beacon,
with
signage,
with
additional
striping
with
mode
separated
striping.
So
there's
it
you
know
I'm.
My
guess
is
that
we'll
actually
go
with
multiple
treatments
of
this
intersection
and
just.
I
D
A
D
A
B
D
To
be
put
there,
I
may
have
to
get
back
to
you
with
the
exact
reasoning
and
the
relationship
between
state
aid,
but
I
think
what
I
think
your
hunch
is
accurate
and
that's
that
it's
traffic
volumes,
but
it's
also
level
of
service.
So
how
quickly
are
are
folks
getting
kind
of
across
town,
and
I
know
that
state
aid
roads,
one
of
their
biggest
functions,
is
like
linking
right
is
like
the
idea
of
linking
across
town
or
getting
moving
vehicles
efficiently
across
the
larger
network.
D
D
Maybe
because
of
sight
lines,
you
know
parking
sequence
so
that
I
we
I'm
happy
to
come
back
and
bring
someone
that
actually
does
you
know
traffic
engineering
and
design
and
specializes
in
that,
and
can
give
you
a
much
better
answer
than
me
or
I
can
send
along
some
information
around
stated
roads
to
nick
as
a
follow-up.
So
let
me
know.
B
D
H
J
I
B
J
B
B
D
D
D
B
So
I
I
will
again
jump
in
so
anytime.
You
have
a
island
or
a
refuge
that
there
is
potential
for
somebody
to
stop.
I
mean
the
whole
reason
that
concept
is
being
suggested
is
for
safety
reasons
and
again,
how
is
a
blind
person
standing
in
the
middle
at
in
a
safety
refuge
gonna,
be
clear
to
know
that
they
are
safe
to
then
step
back
into
the
street.
On
the
other
end,.
I
G
A
H
I
A
A
A
Cool
so
carrie,
there
are
two
more
comments
for
concept:
design
conversation
one
from
mandy,
while
I'm
gonna
quote
it
because
I
think
it'll
be
better
quote.
Well,
I
love
more
trees.
I
also
think
of
sight
lines.
Safety,
lighting,
emt
access
points,
concept,
2
or
concept.
1
would
be
better
info
and
then
another
comment
that
she
made
is
that
she
does
agree
with
harvey
in
terms
of
combining
various
parts
of
both
concepts,
one
and
two
together
and
mandy.
If
you
like
to
expand
on
the
floor
shores.
C
So
thanks
for
doing
that,
while
I
I
couldn't
unmute,
I
believe
that
there's
different
aspects
of
one
and
two
that
lend
itself
not
just
to
flow
and
navigation
waypoints,
but
also
again
for
security,
safety
and
lighting.
We
want
people
to
to
feel
safe
and
welcome,
and
I've
seen
designs
that
have
some
great
amount
of
trees.
C
But
the
the
vantage
point,
if
someone
is
lost
or
injured
or
being
approached
is,
is
not
very
good.
I
also
wanted
to
point
out
because
of
where
the
the
bridge
is.
You
want
to
make
sure
that,
what's
underneath
it
are
trees
and
not
function,
space.
Thinking
about
again
how
people
use
spaces
from
different
elevation
points
is
really
important
to
consider,
I
think,
from
an
accessibility
standpoint.
C
There
are
several
examples
of
incorporating
nature
like
some
of
the
the
nature
parks
that
that
we
have,
that
could
be
included
in
some
of
the
points
of
one
and
two
to
bring
in
more
designated
nature
or
green
space,
without
sacrificing
the
visibility
of
and
promoting
safety.
You
do
need
to
think
about
light
pollution
and
other
things
when
you
think
about
how
the
park
is
going
to
be
used.
C
Everything
from
where
the
art
is
placed,
seating,
accessible
path
of
travel,
so
I
think,
there's
lots
of
little
components
of
it
that
might
be
more
suitable
for
our
access
committee.
As
a
as
these
move
forward
to,
you
know,
discuss
components
of
of
the
plans,
but
I
I'm
not
sure
that's
a
good
thing
to
to
get
in
too
much
in
the
weeds
for
this
first
discussion.
C
Okay
and
then,
if
I
were
to
channel
margot
on
the
issue
of
the
accessible
passive
travel
in
in
crossing
streets,
I
thought
you
know
ken
did
a
really
good
job
of
of
of
talking
about
audible
versus
flashing
lights
and
how
that
impacts.
Different
people
with
different
disabilities
in
different
ways,
both
negative
and
positive.
C
So
does
the
raised
intersections,
and
it's
not
just
about
signal
placing
it
has
a
lot
to
do
with
snow
removal
where
the
snow
piles
up
where
people
are
positioned
or
backed
up
into
that
space.
So
I
think
an
example
that
that
we
see
is
the
the
green
treatments.
I'm
gonna
use
an
example
in
st
paul
right
by
the
stadium
alliance
field.
C
They
have
a
bunch
of
cross
points
because
it's
too
wide
and
it's
it's
arced
right
by
the
freeway
and
even
with
proper
signaling
lighting,
different
treatments,
the
complexity
of
that
space.
They
still
have
to
have
traffic
cops
and
people
are,
are
trampling
over
some
of
the
treatments.
People
are
tripping
on
some
of
the
treatments
and
it
makes
it
actually
less
accessible
when
there's
a
volume
of
people.
C
So
I
think
one
of
the
things
that
you
have
to
think
about
is
how
many
people
do
you
expect
to
cross
at
any
given
time
and
then
also
design
that
treatment,
whether
it's
for
one
or
individuals
with
adaptive
equipment,
so
that
it's
wide
enough
to
get
through.
Because
often
when
we
see
those
those
treatment
designs,
they
they
meet
the
minimum
code,
but
the
amount
of
people
coming
through
it's
often
too
narrow.
C
So
I
think
of
like
a
service
animal
and
someone
using
a
motorized
wheelchair
scooter.
At
the
same
time.
That's
that's
the
the
examples
that
come
to
mind
when
I
think
of
what
margot
would
talk
about,
so
I'm
going
to
end
there
and
if
that
jogs
anybody
else's
memories
to
channel
mark
on
your
shoulder,
go
for
it.
D
D
If
you
have
other
things
on
your
agenda
and
again,
I
do
have
a
website
that
I'm
going
to
share
with
nick
when
it
goes,
live
and
maybe
can
pass
it
on
to
it's
on
the
last
page
of
the
presentation
as
well,
but
I'll
just
send
out
a
reminder
when
it
goes
live
hopefully
early
next
week
and
again,
I'm
happy
to
come
back.
If
you
know
it
would
be
helpful,
also
just
for
more
detailed
discussions
on
crossings
or
building
design.
B
B
At
this
level,
I
you
know,
as
you
can
imagine,
and
as
I
think,
a
lot
of
our
comments
have
alluded
to
there's
a
lot
of
devil
in
the
detail,
and
so
we're
really
happy
to
share
some
of
the
bigger
chunks
of
issues
that
often
don't
get
looked
at
until
much
later
in
the
process.
So
we're
happy
to
kind
of
lay
that
groundwork
so
that
it
gets
incorporated
early.
D
D
A
Sure
this
is
nikken.
I
do
have
a
few
house
cleaning
items-
I
think
you
alluded
to
it
earlier,
but
I
just
wanted
the
full
committee
to
know
that
I
am
scheduled
to
go
on
paternity
leave
starting
august
23rd,
barring,
if
anything
happens
from
now
until
then,
which
is
not
too
far
from
now,
but
I
do
plan
to
be
out
for
roughly
six
weeks
and
in
that
time
one
of
my
colleagues,
christina
kendrick,
will
step
in
to
help
support
the
committee
in
the
september
meeting.
A
So
I
think
in
the
email
I
I
include
information
that
we
do
have
a
few
big
items
coming
our
way,
it's
a
matter
of
kind
of
figuring
out
which
is
going
to
be
more
timely
in
terms
of
the
city,
cities
related
work
and
events.
So
I
believe
for
the
september
meeting.
If
I'm
able
to
forecast,
we
will
have
elections
coming
just
to
provide
their
their
updates
on
a
lot
of
what
they
have
set
up
for
the
upcoming
city
election.
A
We
also
have,
I
believe,
transformer
community
safety
coming
back
as
well
for
part
of
their
phase
engagement,
the
big
one
that
I've
been
trying
to
get
to
the
committee
is
our
new
city
office
building
and
their
the
public
service
center
in
it.
The
the
the
the
setback
is
that
the
lead
staff
that
typically
works
with
us
on
a
lot
of
the
accessibility
of
city
facilities.
I
left
the
city
a
few
weeks
ago,
so
property
service
is
trying
to
catch
up
in
their
overall
work,
work
projects
and
coming
to
the
committee
as
well.
A
A
We
typically
have
someone
come
and
issue
the
oath
of
office
for
committee
members,
but
rather
than
having
her
show
up
to
everyone's
house
throughout
the
day
or
having
you
all
come
to
city
hall
or
finding
your
own
notary,
where
we're
working
on
having
it
done
via
the
committee
next
month.
Over
teams,
the
recording
will
help
and
then
she's
just
having
to
go
through
a
a
extra
layer
of
certification
to
do
it
virtually
at
the
moment
and
mandy
your
hands
raised.
C
C
A
A
We
could
explore
that,
and
my
apologies-
maybe
I
should
have
mentioned
this
as
well.
In
regards
to
my
update
on
my
planned
leave,
I
am
creating
backup
plans
in
terms
of
folks
that
can
help
cover
some
of
my
responsibilities,
while
I'm
out
in
regards
to
that
david
has
is
typically
the
person
that
would
step
in
to
manage
all
ada
related
questions,
complaints
or
situations
or
just
support
in
general.
A
He
is
the
city's
formal,
ada
title
ii
coordinator,
and
I
am
you
know
the
person
that
responds
directly
reports
it
david.
The
unfortunate
part,
is
that
david
is
actually
currently
out
on
leave.
Fmil
fmla
leave
for
health.
Related
reasons
is
gone,
for,
I
believe,
until
the
end
of
september,
so
we're
kind
of
down
capacity
at
the
moment.
C
G
We're
also
not
giving
the
community
support
for
we
haven't
received
in
the
last
two
years,
so
maybe
now's
the
time
for
us
to
talk
about
that
as
well
and
getting
that
community
award
and
maybe
a
community
sponsor
for
disabilities.
Just
throwing
that
out.
There
wanted
to
see
what
you
guys
all
thought.
C
There
was
a
period
of
time
where
it
was
done
in
july,
but
normally
that
takes
three
or
four
months
lead
time
to
take
nominations
for
awards
to
go
through
a
selection
process
to
provide
a
statement
and
certificate.
Well,
that's
fine!
That's
fine!
Yeah!
I'm
not
sure
we
would
have
time
to
do
that
with
this
scenario,
but
I
do
agree.
It'd
be
nice
to
to
propose
bringing
that
back
and
that
could
be
a
discussion.
C
Sometimes
we've
had
community
speakers
or
open
forums,
invited
people
to
our
october
meetings
and
and
featured
presentations
for
the
community,
not
just
you
know
for
for
the
committee
that
maybe
could
be
done
in
a
short
period
of
time.
But
considering
you
know
it's
an
election
year,
a
lot
of
people
are
gonna.
We
don't
want
to
politicize
any
of
our
topics.
C
B
B
B
B
All
the
state
agencies
were
making
plans
to
return
back
to
some
sort
of
normalcy
in
the
office.
That's
all
been
put
on
hold
again.
Our
new
target
date
is
nothing
prior
to
october
1st.
Now,
when
we
were
already
starting
to
phase
back
into
the
office,
so
everything's
again
on
hold,
and
until
we
really
know
what's
happening
with
this
delta
variant,
I
think
we
need
to
also
be
nimble
and
again
with
limited
energy
and
limited
capacity.
B
There's
there's
just
a
worry
of
putting
a
lot
of
energy
into
something
that
may
or
may
not
happen
just
because
we're
in
this
again,
this
waiting
time
of
trying
to
figure
out
what's
going
to
happen
so
I'll,
just
throw
that
out
as
things
to
think
about,
but
I
I
hear
everything
that
everyone's
saying.
I
think
those
are
all
incredibly
important
ideas.
We
need
to
get
back
on
track
and
that's
certainly
going
to
be
my
goal
for
the
for
the
next
year.
G
G
Maybe
we
can
discuss
in
the
next
meeting
as
well,
but
that's
the
reason
why
I
had
brought
it
up
too
for
like
those
certifications
and
recognizing
that,
and
it
could
be
something
that
would
be
short
term,
but
that
was
just
kind
of
my
two
cents
that
I
had
and
I
just
don't
want
people
who
are
burnt
out
and
that's
really
what's
happening.
Is
people
will
get
burned
out
after
a
couple
years
and
then
they
disappear
and
then
again
obviously
that's
what
happened
previously
and
then
covet
hit.
So
that's
just
my
two
cents.
F
F
You
know
virus
that's
upon
us,
and
so
I
think
as
much
as
we
want
to
do
something
for
october.
It
does
take
time,
but
I'm
going
to
suggest
that
the
executive
committee
or
whomever
or
the
committee
itself
decides
like
what
two
committees
do.
We
want
to
start
up
come
january,
22
and
start
the
new
year
off
with
these
committees.
B
B
People
need
to
come
and
attend
a
meeting
before
they
commit,
and
so
all
of
this
stuff
takes
time,
but
I
really
want,
I
think,
that's
our
first
step
is
to
develop
and
rebuild
our
committee
to
a
a
full
complement
and,
and
then
we
can
start
again
begin
to
appoint
committees
and
start
doing
some
some
work
that
split
out
between
us
all.
So
that's
my
that's
my
intention.
B
B
F
Well-
and
I
think
each
one
of
us,
you
know
represent
awards,
so
I
would
rather
than
putting
this
all
on
you
and
amanda,
and
I
don't
know
who
else
is
on
the
executive
committee,
but
I
think
each
one
of
us
as
members
need
to
have
that
conversation
with
our
council
members
about-
and
I
know
you
didn't
mention.
Yes,
it
is
election
year.
C
C
So
I
think
I
think,
there's
things
that
we're
doing.
We
could
do
a
better
job
of
documenting
that
assigning
tasks
and
duties
of
our
our
membership,
so
that
we
can
report
back
either.
You
know
in
writing
or
at
meetings
it's
not
that
this
hasn't
been
going
on
or
just
one
or
two
people
been
doing
it.
Yeah.
C
I
mean
donna
used
to
have
a
constant
relationship
with
her
council
member
and
we
want
to
be
able
to
support
and
and
train
new
new
committee
members
on
issues
and
topics
and
collaboration.
The
same
way
that
we
want
to
do
outreach
to
to
councilmember,
you
know
we
can
look
at
what
other
you
know.
Committees
are
doing
to
as
they
reorganize
under
you
know,
returning
or
new
administrations
and
look
at
you
know
how
they're
adapting
to
covid
to
do
training
and
orientation
and
inclusion.
Generally.
C
When
we
have
a
bunch
of
new
members,
we
do
do
an
orientation
session
for
the
committee,
so
I
mean
there's
lots
of
things
we
can
do
and
maybe
october
is
you
know
a
planning
meeting
to
talk
about
what
we
think
our
future
tasks
should
be
as
well.
As
you
know,
hearing
about
the
new
city
building
updates,
but
I'm
assuming
that
november
is
going
to
be
looked
at.
You
know
as
an
update
from
elections.
C
Sometimes
we
get
that
you
know
later
in
winter
once
things
are
certified,
but
we
you
know
we
should
be
planning
in
october,
what
we're
going
to
be
doing
for
november
and
december.
We
should
always
be
planning.
You
know
two
months
ahead
if
we
can
so,
I
think
right
now.
What
we're
doing
is
talking
about.
What's
on
deck
for
september
and
october,
and
at
the
september
meeting,
if
there's
time
we'd
be
talking
about,
what's
going
on,
you
know
for
october
and
november
and
and
just
take
baby
steps.
C
So
maybe
we
can,
instead
of
having
this
meeting
run
on
since
we're
clearly
at
its
natural
end,
which
is
great
to
give
people
back
some
time.
Maybe
we
could
just
start
putting
this
together
an
email.
What
are
your
proposed
agenda
items,
or
you
know,
priorities
for
the
next
few
months
and
that
that
helps
nick
that
helps
others
who
are
stepping
in
for
nick,
while
he's
out
or
for
david
while
he's
out.
So
if
we
do
need,
you
know,
updated
reports,
people
have
time
to
prepare
them.
C
If
we,
you
know,
want
to
be
involved
in
budget
discussions
or
other
topics,
we
know
around
what
time
of
year
those
things
come
and
we
can
plan
for
those
things.
So
one
of
the
ways
to
do
that
is
to
look
at
what
we've
done
in
years
past
for
these
sorts
of
months.
So
looking
back
at
previous
minutes
at
agendas
from
previous
years
and
that
can
be
a
baseline,
but
then
we
have
to
adapt
to
the
current
climate
that
we're
in
both
with
the
pandemic,
limited
staff
and
limited
committee
members.
B
G
Yeah
harvey
here
I
do
want
to
say
that
minneapolis
park
and
wreck
the
person
that
was
here
today
carrie
was
did
a
very
good
job,
with
disseminating
information
to
us
and
passing
that
along
the
designs
that
were
developed
and
for
she
had
it
really
planned
out
and
those
intersections
and
the
traffic
I
mean.
That
is
something
we
really
need
to
focus
on.
Is
that
safety
aspect
of
the
intersections,
so
I
do
have
some
concerns
for
the
future.
For.
G
B
Absolutely
thank
you
harvey.
I
appreciate
that
and
thank
you
for
the
recognition
that
you
know
once
again:
staff
from
the
park
board
step
up
and
really
acknowledge
the
audience
that
they're
speaking
to
and
prepare
and
as
a
result,
we
have
some
excellent
presentation
and
some
good
in
response,
some
good
discussion
that
they're
able
to
take
some
of
our
our
comments
and
mold
them
into
the
next
action.
