  • 2012 ADC Executive Summary
    22001122 CCEDAR­­RRIVERSIDE CCOMMUNITY SSPACE SSTUDY FFINAL RREPORT Cedar‐Riverside Community Space Study – September 2012 ADC Executive Summary The Cedar Riverside neighborhood is home to over 7,000 residents and numerous organizations that need space for meeting, gathering, performing, educational, social service, and other types of activities. Often times, the demand for space is greater than the supply in this densely populated neighborhood. In order to determine the community spaces available and types of community spaces most needed in the neighborhood, the African Development Center (ADC) conducted a community space study, with financial support from the Cedar Riverside Neighborhood Revitalization Program. After extensive outreach and information gathering, the ADC found that the Cedar Riverside neighborhood is sometimes lacking in both knowledge of and access to currently available community spaces. In order to increase the level of awareness of available space in the Cedar Riverside neighborhood, ADC has created a Space Inventory document, which can be found here as an appendix, as well as on ADC’s website. The space inventory provides information regarding specific locations and rental terms of available space in Cedar Riverside. ADC expects that this inventory will help community members to better utilize space currently available in the neighborhood. Despite the fact that several neighborhood organizations are willing to open their doors for community use, there is still a major need for more spaces. Neighborhood representatives reported that the greatest desires are: community spaces for youth recreation and related services, fitness/exercise activities, adult/elder activities, large events/gatherings and social services. Despite many creative and cooperative approaches occurring to meet space needs among organizations large and small, there are still significant unmet needs.

  • Prioritizing-Place-A
    The Center on Philanthropy & Public Policy Sol Price Center for Social Innovation PrioritizingPlace A National Forum on Place-Based Initiatives December 4 – 5, 2014 Davidson Conference Center University of Southern California Sol Price School of Public Policy Forum Sponsors Welcome Dear Colleague, We are delighted you could join us for Prioritizing Place: A National Forum on Place-Based Initiatives. This gathering is the culmination of a year-long inquiry into the state of philanthropic initiatives and public sector efforts to address geographically-concentrated poverty, undertaken by The Center on Philanthropy and Public Policy and the Sol Price Center for Social Innovation. This inquiry has provided an opportunity to step back and take a thoughtful look at the experience of place-based initiatives – whether undertaken by philanthropy or government or a combination of the sectors. We hope that this forum helps to elevate the dialogue above specific best practices or discussions about what works to embrace the larger significance and longevity of place-based as a strategy for the field, and that the insights generated over these two days will be useful to philanthropic and public decision makers as they chart their strategies for moving forward. Our effort has been spearheaded by Elwood Hopkins of Emerging Markets. We have been guided by a first-rate national advisory board. Based on their advice and recommendations, we framed the intellectual agenda for this inquiry and identified leading experts to participate in five small and focused discussions – held in Los Angeles, New York, and Washington, D.C. from April to June 2014 – addressing a different aspect of place-based work.

  • 03 Prospect Park
    NPS Form 10-900-a (Rev. 8/2002) OMB No. 1024-0018 (Expires 5-31-2012) United States Department of the Interior Prospect Park ResidentialPut Here Historic District National Park Service Name of Property Hennepin County, MN County and State National Register of Historic Places N/A Continuation Sheet Name of multiple listing (if applicable) Section number 8 Page 1 NARRATIVE STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE The civil engineers who laid out the Prospect Park plats, Samuel Harlan Baker and Joseph H. Gilmore, were influenced by the work of their contemporary, Horace William Shaler (H. W. S.) Cleveland, and the picturesque landscape designs that are a hallmark of the era. Upon the framework of these plats, the residents shaped Prospect Park’s character and appearance. The neighborhood is significant as the home of the first community association in the city of Minneapolis, the Prospect Park Improvement Association (PPIA). The PPIA quickly established itself as a major influence, effecting changes ranging from the removal of weeds to the construction of the neighborhood’s iconic water tower. The community’s culture was enriched by its proximity to the University of Minnesota, which drew many academics to Prospect Park. The Prospect Park Historic District is one of three suburban-type developments that were established in Minneapolis in the late nineteenth century. While the architectural design in the other two, Kenwood and Washburn Park, is relatively homogeneous, following the pattern of many of the city’s neighborhoods, the houses in Prospect Park display a spectrum of the residential styles that appeared in Minneapolis during the late nineteenth century and the twentieth century.

    Date: February 2,2021 Property ID: 02-028-24-12-0110 Address: 3027 14th avenue south, Minneapolis, MN 55407 Owner name & Taxpayer of above address: Brenda Short Dear Mayor Frey, Transportation and Public Works committee, and Minneapolis City Council: I am writing to you to object to the above resurfacing project. By allowing this project during a time of morning of four men and one 18-year-old woman who lost their live on these same streets you are trying to cover. As a Mother of four children, I am very disappointed on how the city of Minneapolis, has handled a lot of issues in the Year 2020. This being said ,I do not believe that this is not the correct time morally or financially for this work to be done. Many homeowners like myself had to take fewer hours at work or was asked to take furloughs, or just lost their job. On top of the financial stress due to cov-19. Homeowners is still dealing with the emotional stress that the city of Minneapolis and city council has forced upon them. Shortly after the George Floyd riot many homeowners like myself found out about families in need at our local parks. Is stead of getting help for these people from the city or mayor or Hennepin county. Homeowners and volunteers were force into unpaid roles as, social workers, and financial assistant workers. we tried to help the people unfortunate during a time of need. The city and law enforcement abused them and destroyed the little property and dignity these people have.

  • Ballot Question Regarding a Proposed Amendment to the Minneapolis City Charter, for The
    STATE OF MINNESOTA DISTRICT COURT COUNTY OF HENNEPIN FOURTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT CASE TYPE: CIVIL – OTHER Yes 4 Minneapolis, Court File No. _________________ Petitioner, PETITION TO CORRECT BALLOT v. UNDER MINN. STAT. § 204B.44 City of Minneapolis and Casey Joe Carl, in his official capacity as City Clerk of the City of Minneapolis, Respondents. The Petitioner Yes 4 Minneapolis, through its counsel, brings this Petition under Minn. Stat. § 204B.44 (Errors or Omissions) to correct the errors, omissions, and wrongful acts of Respondents City of Minneapolis (the “City”) and Casey Joe Carl, in his official capacity as City Clerk and chief election official of the City of Minneapolis (“Mr. Carl” or “City Clerk”). INTRODUCTION On July 23, 2021, the Minneapolis City Council unlawfully added an “Explanatory Note” to a ballot question regarding a proposed amendment to the Minneapolis City Charter, for the City’s November 2, 2021 general election. If passed, the amendment would establish a Department of Public Safety. The “Explanatory Note” should be stricken from the ballot because it is not authorized by law and is also a misleading partial description of the impact of the proposed amendment. 30416.0001 – 5333203.1 To be clear, this Petition does not address the merits of the ballot question itself, but challenges the addition of the “Explanatory Note.” The ballot question fully and fairly explains the proposed amendment’s “essential purpose.”1 The City Council exceeded its power by adding its own subjective version of what will happen if the amendment passes. For proposed charter amendments, Minnesota law authorizes that a ballot question include only a description “sufficient to identify the amendment clearly and to distinguish the question from every other question on the ballot at the same time.” Minn.

  • Charter Commission
    Council President Lisa Bender 350 S. Fifth St. – Room 307 Minneapolis, MN 55415 TEL 612.673.2204 August 5, 2020 To the Members of the Minneapolis Charter Commission: Thank you for your consideration of the City Council’s proposed charter amendment this past month. Our commitment, as expressed in the resolution passed by the City Council on June 12, 2020, is to transform the way we provide for community safety and respond to decades of failed reforms and deepening mistrust in the Minneapolis Police Department. Our constituents have called for structural change using words like “defund” and “disband” to describe our current, broken system alongside aspirational language like “transform” and “reimagine” as we begin the work toward the system we believe is possible, in which everyone feels safe. As elected representatives in a city demanding systemic change, we are proposing a charter amendment that allows us to meaningfully reimagine our city’s approach to safety. We expect the transformed system to include law enforcement as part of a multi-faceted approach to public safety. As you know, the charter amendment replaces the charter-mandated Police Department with a Department of Community Safety and Violence Prevention. It also states that “the Council may maintain a division of protective law enforcement services, composed of licensed Minnesota Peace Officers, subject to the supervision of the department of community safety and violence prevention.” From a governing perspective, there are two reasons why we used the word “may” instead of “shall.” First, it ensures the possibility that the City could choose to contract with another jurisdiction for public safety services if it made sense to do so, as many other towns and cities do.
