    Bernard, Joseph A. From: Kaia Svien <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, November 10, 2020 1:07 PM To: Wittenberg, Jason W.; Baldwin, Lisa M.; 2040; Cano, Alondra (External) Subject: [EXTERNAL] City Zoning Standards Planning Commission Members, Staff, and Councilperson Cano, Please take a strong stand against the proposed changes to the city zoning standards. Analysis that I‘ve read makes this sound very much like a gift to developers who most likely do not hav the vision and vlaues needed to construct housing for low income people. I fully endorse the statement below. Please enter my submission into the Public Record. Thank You, Kaia Svien 3632 13th Ave S, Mpls During the debate on 2040, there were many confirmations and promises related to Built Form for Interior 1-2- 3. Just like in the email confirmation from a Council Member, we were assured "the expectation that two- and three-family homes in low-density areas must meet the same height, setback, and massing requirements as single-family homes." I remind you of this now, as it seems certain special interest groups are claiming "Minneapolis 2040 did not go far enough" and have gone so far as to suggest our tax dollars go to fund a named consultant (Opticos) to "evaluate our existing neighborhoods" and "restart the research of Interior neighborhoods." This can be found in a streets.mn post on October 2nd by Janne Flisrand. There should be NO CONSIDERATION of further movement in these areas: 1 - Approval of ADUs to be built on lots where the principal residence is non-owner-occupied.

  • Public Comment: Contracts with Hennepin County Sheriff's
    From: Seamus Flynn To: Council Comment Subject: [EXTERNAL] "Defund the Police" means actually defunding the police Date: Thursday, November 12, 2020 6:03:55 PM Dear members of the Minneapolis City Council, This past June, I was thrilled when a majority of you publicly committed to work towards abolishing the Minneapolis Police. I thought that politicians were finally taking seriously the idea that police as an institution do more harm than good, endangering our most vulnerable community members through their violence. I thought that perhaps Minneapolis could be a national leader in showing us that getting rid of police is not only possible, but preferable and necessary. Sadly, your actions since then have spoken louder than your words, and I no longer trust that your promises from June were more than political posturing. I'm angered by your plan to allocate nearly $500,000 tomorrow for MPD's contract with the county sheriff's department and the transit police. This will put more police on the North Side, where they will hurt people. I'm particularly frustrated with the three of you who both support this initiative and agreed in June to defund the police. You can't have it both ways: This motion would quite literally fund the police. Imagine what else we could do with that $500K. We're going into the winter, the pandemic is worse than it's ever been, and homeless people in Minneapolis have nowhere to sleep. Get your priorities straight. I'm also concerned by your proposed appointments of Lyannia Jacobsen and Malaysia Abdi to the Police Conduct Oversight Commission, and I urge all members of the city council to vote against them.

  • Stop the Minneapolis 2040 Plan!
    Save Our Neighborhoods! Stop the Minneapolis 2040 Plan! Many of the changes the Mpls 2040 Plan promotes will likely go into effect next year (2019) -- e.g. fourplexes, etc. What's wrong with the 2040 plan? * Fourplexes Everywhere The Mpls 2040 Plan allows fourplexes on virtually every block and every neighborhood in the entire city. This radical change will destroy the character and feel of our beautiful single-family/residential neighborhoods. * Much More Density Everywhere The Mpls 2040 Plan promotes A LOT MORE density and development in our residential neighborhoods and around our city lakes. This radical change will greatly hurt the look and feel of our neighborhoods, and our lakes. To make matters worse, it doesn't address related transportation and infrastructure needs. Density for density's sake, without a well thought out transportation and infrastructure plan, is very shortsighted and irresponsible. * Taller Buildings Everywhere The Mpls 2040 Plan calls for 'upzoning' the entire city. This will allow developers to build up to 6 and 8 story buildings and high-rise apartments in many of interior neighborhoods and around our city lakes. This radical change will be end up being very harmful. What Can You Do? 1. Call and email Mayor Jacob Frey, Lisa Bender (City Council President), Jeremy Schroeder (Zoning and Planning Chair), your own city council person, and as many other city council members as you can. Tell them you strongly oppose the Mpls 2040 Plan. The mayor and a majority of the city council support the plan, and unless a majority change their mind and vote "No" -- it will pass! Contact information is on the back of this flyer.
