All
right
we're
gonna
start
again.
Sorry
for
that
good
evening.
Everyone
welcome
to
the
annual
joint
meeting
of
the
City
Planning
Commission
and
the
capital
long
range
Improvement
committee
today
is
Thursday
May
11th.
My
name
is
Alyssa
Olson
I'm,
the
president
of
the
Planning
Commission.
At
this
time,
I'll
ask
the
or
I
will
call
to
order
the
special
meeting
of
the
Planning
Commission.
Once
we
have
done
that,
I
will
turn
it
over
to
the
chair
of
the
click
to
convene
The
Click
meeting.
C
Commissioner,
Baxley,
oh
and
I
should
add
that
I
don't
have
the
we
don't
have
a
central
control
for
the
microphones.
Can
you
hear
me?
We
don't
have
a
central
control
for
the
microphone,
so
only
four
can
be
on
at
a
time,
but
you'll
have
to
turn
it
on
and
off
your
own
microphones.
So
if
you're
wondering
why
you
don't
hear
yourself
on
the
loudspeaker,
that's
why
so
I
have
Albert.
I
have
Baxley,
commissioner
Conley.
A
All
right,
we
have
a
quorum
with
that
we'll
proceed
to
the
agenda,
a
copy
of
which
was
posted
for
public
access
to
the
city's
legislative
information
management
system,
which
is
available
at
limbs.nn.gov.
Could
I
have
a
motion
to
adopt
the
agenda
from
a
planning?
Commissioner,
all
right,
we
have
a
motion
and
a
second
is
there
any
discussion
seeing
Oh
wait
hold
on
I'm
off
script,
Rachel
changed
it.
Do
we
need
to
call
the
roll
on
the
motion,
or
can
we
just
Voice
vote?
Okay,
all
in
favor,
say
aye
aye
all
opposed
any
abstentions.

Good

yep
okay,
here
my
name
is
Shanna
sether
I
am
a
planner
with
the
Department
of
Community
planning
and
economic
development.
Thank
you
all
for
being
here
this
evening.
The
item

is
a
state
law
and
Charter
required
joint
public
hearing
between
our
Capital
long-range
Improvement
committee
and
our
City
Planning
Commission.
B
Cped
staff
will
return
to
the
following:
City
Planning
Commission
Committee
of
the
whole
meeting
on
May
25th
to
review
the
eight
new
projects
proposed
for
a
location
and
design
review.
Our
analysis
is
determination
for
consistency
with
the
city's
comprehensive
plan.
Minneapolis
2040.,
Public,
Works
and
Park
Board
staff
were
not
able
to
attend
today's
meeting.
So
if
there
are
any
questions,
we'll
collect
those
and
we
will
follow
up
with
answers
following
today's
meeting.
Thank
you
very
much.
A
F
Good
evening
my
name
is
Steve
Brandt
and
I'm
in
the
Kingfield
neighborhood
3916
Pleasant
been
at
that
address
for
47
years
now,
because
I'm,
an
elected
official
I,
should
clarify
that
tonight.
I'm
speaking
personally
and
as
a
representative
of
the
Great
Northern
Greenway
Coalition
on
Whose
steering
committee
I've
served
for
the
last
six
years.
F
F
It
extends
from
worth
Parkway
to
the
Quarry
Shopping
Center,
unfortunately,
and
the
north
side
portion
is
finished,
which
is
wonderful
and
we've
gotten
excellent
cooperation
from
Public
Works
in
completing
that
and
most
of
the
Northeast
section
is
completed.
But
there
are
two
gaps
and
I'm
here
to
talk
about.
One
in
particular,
quick
members
will
recall
a
capital
budget
request:
bp006,
that's
by
pedestrian
the
18th
Avenue
Northeast
Trail
Gap.
F
F
F
F
F
We've
gotten
really
no
explanation
for
these
delays,
but
the
project
is
starting
to
be.
You
know
the
the
18th
Avenue
Bikeway
portion
of
the
Great
Northern
Greenway
is
starting
to
get
the
reputation
of
the
trail
to
nowhere
and
we'd
like
to
erase
that
and
get
it
completed,
so
that
Northeast
has
the
same
access
to
the
riverfront
by
the
Burlington
Northern
Santa
Fe
bridge
that
the
north
side
now
enjoys
along
26th,
Avenue
North.
F
So
we're
asking
that
the
project
be
restored
to
2024
and
we're
asking
quick
to
support
that
and
in
a
comment
in
your
annual
report,
we
would
request
that
click
urge
the
Public
Works
director
to
personally
intercede
with
the
Burlington
Northern
Santa,
Fe,
railroad,
railroad,
whose
property
the
trail
would
abut
to
help
negotiate.
Trail
easements
with
your
help,
the
Great,
Northern
Greenway
can
be
finished
and
it
can
become
the
north
half
of
the
city's
equivalent
of
the
Midtown
Greenway
on
the
south
side.
I.
Thank
you
for
considering
my
request.
A
G
Sorry
I
live
about
three
blocks
away
from
where
Steve
is
referring
to
bp06
I
will
be
writing
a
comment
about
this
again
and
I
appreciate
the
input
that
you
gave
and
I
will
add
that
into
the
comments.
So
thank
you.
It
is
a
priority.
It's
a
gap
that
is
unsafe
for
bikers
Walkers
and
the
railroad
is
not
following
up
or
responding
the
way
that
they
should
so
I
will
add
that
into
the
comment.
A
E
E
The
committee
is
comprised
of
two
residents
per
award
plus
seven
additional
pointees
from
the
mayor,
so
the
entire
city
is
represented.
We,
the
committee,
does
its
work
a
lot
of
its
work
in
two
working
groups.
Once
the
transportation
working
group
one's
the
human
development
working
group
projects
are
split
between
those
working
groups
more
or
less
thematically,
but
it's
also
just
sort
of
a
structure
for
dividing
up
the
work.
E
So
we
assess
more
than
100
capital
budget
requests
every
year
hear
presentations
from
departments
and
we
have
a
whole
rubric
of
objective
and
subjective
criteria
by
which
we
evaluate
do
projects.
How
do
they
contribute
to
City
goals,
sustainability,
Financial,
leveraging
et
cetera,
et
cetera,
as
in
so
and
and
take
those
ratings
to
prioritize
which
projects
to
recommend
for
funding
over
a
six
year
period,
and
then
the
committee's
work
product?
E
Is
that
recommendation
for
those
six
years
as
well
as
comments
that
Emily
spoke
to
either
on
specific
projects
or
more
broadly,
about
City's
approach
to
these
kinds
of
projects,
so
we're
about
halfway
through
that
process?
Right
now,
so
we
have
heard
the
presentations
we
are
in
the
comment
writing
period,
so
the
kind
of
input
that
Steve
gave
us
today
feeds
directly
into
where
we
are
in
the
process.
Right
now.
Thank
you
for
that.
E
We
will
have
coming
up
to
public
listening
sessions,
one
on
the
North
side,
one
on
the
South
Side.
It's
it's
sometimes
not
clear
for
how
the
public
could
and
should
engage
in
this
role.
One
of
the
best
ways
is
actually
just
talk
to
your
friendly
neighborhood
click
member,
but
we
appreciate
the
time
today
to
join
the
Planning
Commission
and
the
opportunity
to
hear
from
the
public
on
projects
as
we're
evaluating
them.
E
I
think
the
last
thing
I'll
say
is
just
that
click
is
strictly
advisory,
nothing
that
we
recommend
is
binding.
However,
the
vast
majority
of
what
click
ends
up
recommending
does
eventually
get
adapted
by
the
mayor
in
the
council.
So
we
are
glad
to
contribute
that
evaluation
recommendation,
and
but
it
is
up
to
your
elected
officials
to
make
their
final
decisions.
H
E
E
H
F
A
Shannon
Shannon
I,
just
wanna,
I'm
gonna,
try
to
say
this,
but
I
just
want
you
there
in
case
I
mess
it
up
so
every
year
the
the
Planning
Commission
does
this
and
it's
not
always
clear
like
what
the
process
is.
But
I
was
talking
to
Shannon
about
it
earlier.
So
we
will
have
this
meeting,
but
this
isn't
the
last
time
that
we
will
see
these
items.
So
we
will
see
these
items
that
Committee
of
the
whole
correct.
B
There
are
eight
new
projects
that
are
proposed
this
year.
There
are
five
Park
projects
and
then
there
are
three
Public
Works
projects.
Okay,
so
staff
will
present
a
staff
report
that
will
be
available
in
limbs
for
the
Planning
Commission
Community
hold
meeting
on
May
25th
and
at
that
meeting
that
Planning
Commission
will
take
action
in
determining
whether
or
not
those
eight
projects
are
consistent
with
the
comprehensive
plan
or
not.
B
A
All
right
anyone
else
otherwise,
we'll
close
the
discussion.
Okay,
see
no
further
discussion.
I
will
direct
the
clerk
to
receive
and
file
that
report.
With
that
we
have
completed
the
items
on
the
agenda
for
this
meeting.
I
will
ask
members
and
staff
if
there
are
any
other
matters
to
become
before
this
meeting.
