>> GOOD AFTERNOON, EVERYONE. WELCOME TO THE REGULAR MEETING OF BUSINESS, HOUSING AND ZONING COMMITTEE FOR JANUARY 6, 2025. I'M JAMAL OSMAN, THE CHAIRMAN OF THIS COMMITTEE. I WANT TO REMIND ALL MEMBERS, STAFF THAT THIS
MEETING IS BROADCAST LIVE TO ENABLE GREATER PUBLIC PARTICIPATION. THEY INCLUDE REAL-TIME CAPTIONING. THEREFORE, ALL SPEAKERS NEED TO BE MINDFUL OF THE RATE OF THEIR SPEECH SO THAT OUR CAPTIONERS CAN FULLY
CAPTURE AND TRANSCRIBE ALL COMMENTS FOR THE BROADCAST. WE ASK ALL SPEAKERS TO MODERATE THE SPEED AND CLARITY OF THEIR COMMENTS. WE WILL BE USING SPEAKER MANAGEMENT. >> COUNCIL MEMBER RAINVILLE IS ABSENT. CASHMAN.
>> PRESENT. >> JENKINS. >> PRESENT. >> CHOWDHURY. >> PRESENT. >> VICE CHAIR ELLISON. >> HERE. >> AND CHAIR OSMAN. >> PRESENT. >> THERE ARE FIVE MEMBERS PRESENT. >> LET THE RECORD REFLECT WE HAVE A QUORUM. BEFORE WE PROCEED TO THE PUBLIC HEARING ON ITEMS
ON OUR AGENDA, WE WILL FIRST TAKE OUR CONSENT AGENDA WHICH IS ITEMS 3 THROUGH 13. I'LL RECOIZE COUNCIL MEMBER RAINVILLE WHO HAS JOINED US. ITEM 3 IS APPROVING TWO LIQUOR
LICENSE. ITEM FOUR IS SEVEN LIQUOR LICENSE. SEVEN IS
AUTHORIZING AN EXTENSION TO SHERMAN ASSOCIATES. EIGHT APPROVING AN AMENDMENT TO CITY'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. NINE IS APPROVING AMENDMENT TO THE CITY'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
LOCATED AT 3010 12 AVENUE SOUTH. 10 IS AUTHORIZING CPED. ELEVEN IS APPROVING DEACCESSION
OF PUBLIC ARTWORK. 12 IS SETTING PUBLIC HEARING TO RECEIVE PLIC COMMENT 2025-29 ACTION PLAN.
ITEM 13 IS AFFORDABLE HOUSING UNITS. WITH THAT, DO ANY OF MY COLLEAGUES HAVE ANY COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS? COUNCIL MEMBER CASHMAN. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH, CHAIR OSMAN. I JUST HAD A QUESTION ABOUT ITEM 7, I'M WONDERING IF
STAFF WOULD BE ABLE TO COME UP AND JUST EXPLAIN THE NATURE OF EXTENDING EXCLUSIVE DEVELOPMENT RIGHTS AND WHEN WE FIRST APPROVED THE DEVELOPMENT RIGS AND WHAT'S THE NATURE FOR THE
NEED OF AN EXTENSION. >> COUNCIL MEMBER CASHMAN THROUGH THE CHAIR OSMAN, I'M EMILY THROUGH CPED, I HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH SHERMAN ASSOCIATES
SINCE WE ISSUED THE REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS FOR THIS PROPERTY IN 2018. I BELIEVE WE OFFICIALLY AWARDED DEVELOPMENT RIGHTS TO SHERMAN INITIALLY IN 2019. AND WE HAVE EXTENDED THOSE RIGHTS
MULTIPLE TIMES DUE IN PART TO -- I SHOULD BACK UP AND SAY THE ORIGINAL REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS INCLUDED SOME DIFFERENT DEVELOPMENT CRITERIA THAT ARE NO LONGER IN EFFECT AT THE TIME. ONE OF THE CORE REQUIMENTS WAS
THAT THAT THE DEVELOPER SUBMIT A PROPOSAL FOR A LARGE SCALE MARKET. AND SHERMAN DID THAT. SHERMAN ASSOCIATES WAS THE ONLY RESPONSIVE DEVELOPER TO THAT RFP. AND THEY DID SMIT A PROPOSAL FOR THAT MARKET ALONG
WITH SOME HOUSING AND COMMUNITY SPACE. UNFORTUNATELY, THEY WERE NOT ABLEO GET FINANCING. THEY WORKED FOR A BETTER PART OF A YEAR TO TWOEARS TO TRY TO GET FINANCING AND AN OPERATOR FOR THAT MARKETND THEY WEREN'T ABLE TO GET EITHER. AND SO WHEN
WE LAST WENT BACK FOR AN EXTENSION OF DEVELOPMENT RIGHTS A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO, WE ALLOWED THEM TO KIND OF POT ON THEIR DEVELOPNT PLAN TO WORK MORE DIRECTLY WITH THE PARK
BOARD, THE MINNEAPOLIS PARK BOARD, WHICH HAD ALREADY BEEN WORKING ON A PLANNING EFFORT AS PART OF THE CURRY PARK REDEVELOPMENT AND EXPANSION DOING EXTENSIVE OUTREACH AND ENGAGEMENT ON THAT. AND SO THE PLAN OR WHAT THE PARK BOARD'S
HOPE AND THIS REMAINS TO THI DAY IS TO EXPAND THE FOOTPRINT OF CURRY PARK. DEMOLISH INCLUDING WHERE THE CTER CURRENTLY IS AND BUILD A NEW FACILITY ON THIS SITE WHICH IS
ADJACENT TO CURRY PARK. SO THAT KIND OF PIVOT OF DEVELOPMENT PLANS, YOU KNOW, EXTENDED THE TIME FRAME NEEDED FOR SHERMAN, AGAIN, AS THE MASTER DEVELOPER. AND THEN THE OTHER BIG PIECE OF THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN WHICH WAS
OR IS A LARGE SCALE MULTI-FAMILY HOUSING PROJECT, AFFORDABLE RENTAL PROJECT. AT THE TIME THE REQUIREMENT, THE ZONING REQUIREMENT FOR THE SITE WAS A MINIMUM 10 STORIES. SO SHEAN TRIED TO COMPLY WITH THAT REQUIREMENT, AND AGAIN, HAD A
LOT OF DIFFICULTY GETTING FINANCING FOR SUCH A LARGE SCALE AFFORDABLE HOUSING DEVELOPMENT INCLUDING THROUGH OUR TRUST FUND JUST BECAUSE THE SIZE OF THE ASK OR THE REQUEST FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING FUNDS FROM THE CITY OR
THE STATE WOULD BE JUST LARGER THAN WOULD REALLY NOT ALLOW FOR THE RESOURCES FOR THOSE PROGRAM RESOURCES TO BE SPREAD AMONG OTHER PROJECTS. AND SO THERE IS RIGHT NOW OUR COLLEAGUES IN PLANNING ARE UNDERGOING A
CITY-WISE COMP PLAN AMENDMENT PROCESS TO ALLOW MORE FLEXIBILITY NOT JUST IN THIS SITE BUT OTHER ZONING DISTRICTS IN THE CITY TO ALLOW MORE FLEXIBILITYITH RESPECT TO HEIGHT. BOTH SHERMAN'S CURRENT
SIX-STORY BUILDING AND THE PARK FACILITY WOULD B ALLOWED UNDER THE NEW ZONING CLASSIFICATION FOR THE SITE ONCE THE COM PLAN IS AMENDED WHICH IS EXPECTED LATER THIS YEAR. THAT'S A LONG WINDED WAY OF SAYING THERE'S BEEN SE TWISTS AND TURNS ALONG THE WAY AND THE SHERMAN TEAM HAS
HAD TO GO BACK AND REFORMULATE THEIR PROJECT A COUPLE OF TIMES. AND SO THE PROJECT THAT THEY HAVE NOW IS A MUCH MORE FEASIBLE PROJECT, BOTH THE HOUSING COMPONENT AND THE PARK BOARD
COMPONENT WHICH ALREADY HAS SOME FINANCING FROM THE STATE LEGISLATURE AND THEY'RE BACK AT THE STATE LEGISLATE, THIS CURRENT SESSION TO TRY TO GET THE REST OF THE CAPITAL FINANCING FOR THAT. >> THANK YOU FOR THE EXPLANATION. I'M JUST A LITTLE
CONCERNED THAT THE PLAN HAS CHANGED SO MUCH AND THAT WE ISSUED THE DEVELOPMENT RIGHTS FOR THAT PARTICULAR PROJECT SIX YEARS AGO NOW. IS IT TYPICAL FOR US TO EXTEND WITH NO PROGRESS FOR SO MANY YEARS? THIS IS A
QUESTION I GUESS FOR THE CHAIR AND VICE CHAIR AND PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN ON BHZ LONGER. THAT'S WHAT'S ON MY MIND ABOUT THIS. IT DOESN'T SOUND LIKE THE PLAN IS COMING ANYWHERE CLOSE TO
FRUITION. WOULD IT BE MORE APPROPRIATE TO JUST REISSUE THE RFP UNDER A NEW SET OF CIRCUMSTANCES THAT WOULD BE MORE FEASIBLE? I'LL RECOGNIZE DIRECTOR. >> THANK YOU, CHAIR OSMAN AND COUNCIL MEMBER CASHMAN. I JUST
WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE GENAL NATURE OF OUR DEVELOPMENT PROCESS. DEVELOPMENT OF THIS PROPERTY IS GOING TO BE VERY COMPLEX. WE KNEW THAT GOING IN WHEN WE ISSUED THE RFPACK -- I THINK THE ORIGINAL -- I THINK WE'RE OFF A COUPLE OF YEAR THE ORIGINAL DEVELOPMENT RIGHTS WERE
IN 2021. BUT THIS IS A COMPLICATED DEVELOPMENT SITE WHERE IT HAS TAKEN THE TWISTS AND TURNS. THAT IS NOT ATYPICAL SEE WE HAVE MADE SOME SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS AT THI SITE WITH THE ADDITION OF THE
PARTNERS WITH MINNEAPOLIS PARK AND RECREATION BOARD, AND SOME CHANGES AROUND SOME REAL BARRIERS THAT WE HAD TO TEST IN THE MARKETPLACE. NOW THAT WE THINK WE HAVE THOSE BARRIERS IDENTIFIED, WE'RE WORKING TOWARDS SOLUTIONS. THESE NEXT
TWO YEARS IS THE MOMENT WHERE WE THINK WE CAN GET THE DEAL TOGEER. IF THE DEAL ISN'T TOGETHER, THEN WE WILL REFER BACK TO SEEING IF THERE'S ANYBODY ELSE. THERE'S NOT ANOTHER DEVELOPMENT PARTNER WE SEE IN THE MARKET RIGHT NOW THAT COULD BE AS FAR ALONG AS THIS DEVELOPMENT WITH SHERMAN
ASSOCIATES AND THE LEAD AND THE PARK BOARD TOGETHER. THE PARK BOARBEING ABLE TO RAISE MONEY THROUGH THE STATE FOR THE FACILITY. WE THINK THIS IS THE NEXT RIGHT THING TO DO. >> THANK YOU FOR THAT ADDITIONAL CONTEXT. I THINKYES, WE CAN
HOLD OURSELVES TO THAT TWO-YEARI THINK IT WOULD BE APPROPRIATE FOR US TO GO BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD IF IT'S NOT WORKING IN TWO YEARS. THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU, COUNCIL MEMBER CASHMAN. I HAD A CONVERSATION WITH THE STAFF ON THIS ITEM. THIS IS LOCATED IN MY WARD. AND JUST A LITTLE BIT, MY
COLLEAGUES, TO THE HISTORY BEHIND THIS LAND. THIS IS LOT A. A LONG TIME AGO, COMMUNITY WAS PRISED A CULTURAL MALL. AND THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN. AND SHERMAN ASSOCIATES WAS THE ONLY VELOPER THAT CAME FORWARD.
THIS IS THE THIRD TIME WE'RE EXTENDING. AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE LIMIT IS. I DO HAVE AN ISSUE ON THAT. BUT I'M -- AS THE PARK BOARD CAME FORWARD AND SAY THEY'RE WILLING TO PARTNER AND
BUILD SPACE, IT'S MUCH NEEDED. THIS IS AERY DENSE NEIGHBORHOOD AND THERE'S SPACE FOR YOUTH TO HAVE ACTIVITIES IS REALLYWONDERFUL. I HAVE TALKED TO SHERMAN ASSOCIATE STAFF AND OTHERS, I SAW THE PLAN. IT LOOKS GREAT. IT'S JUST THE IDEA OF
CONTINUE TO EXTEND IT IS AN ISSUE. SO HOPEFULLY WE CAN PUT THIS THE LAST ONE WE DO IT. AND MAKE SURE THE WORK IS BEING DONE. T HOUSING IS NEEDED. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, THE SPACE FOR PARK BOARD IS MUCH NEEDED. SO
I'LL LEAVE THE CMENT THERE AND I'LL RECOGNIZE COUNCIL MEMBER JEREMIAH ELLISON. >> YEAH, I WAS JUST GOING TO COUNCIL MEMBER CASHMAN'S POINTS, JUST GOING TO RESPOND A LITTLE BIT. I'VE BEEN A PART OF DENYING SOME EXTENSIONS IN MY WARD. I'VE
CERTAINLY ALLOWED SOME EXTENSIONS IN MY WARD ON PROJECTS. I DON'T THINK IT'S ATYPICAL. I THINK IT'S CASE BY CASE. THAT'S THE WAY I'VE EXPERIENCED THESE. THE QUESTION IS, IS IT BETTER TO HAVE AN INACTIVE PARCEL THAN AN ACTIVE
PARCEL? AND THE SECOND QUESTION IS, IF WE DO SUBMIT ANOTHER RFP, HOW MANY YEARS IS IT THEN? IS IT FIVE YEARS? IS IT 10 YEARS? A RFP CAN BE -- I KNOW WE TALK A LOT JUST AMONG OURSELVES AND THIS INSTITUTION ABOUT STAFF'S
CAPACITY AND THOSE KINDS OF THINGS CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG BUT I THINK PUTTING TOGETHER A BRAND NEW RFP I DON'T THINK IS SOMETHING STAFF WOULD SEE AS LIGHT WORK. RESUBMIT AN RFP AND
TAKE IN THOSE APPLICATIONS. THAT'S EVEN IF THERE'S A QUEUE OF DEVELOPERS INTERESTED IN THIS LOT. IT'S A CASE BY CASE. THIS IS COUNCIL MEMBER OSMAN'S WARD I BEEVE. AND COUNCIL MEMBER OSMAN DID HAVE A BRIEFING WITH STAFF. I THINK SOME OF THIS IS
CLASSIC LOCAL GOVERNMENT SAUSAGE MAKING AND IT ULTIMATELY ISN'T STAFF WHO ARE TELLING US WHA TO DO. WE HAVE FULL DISCRETION ABOUT THESE DECISIONS AS WELL. SO I THINK, YOU KNOW, I THINK SOME OF THESE QUESTIONS ARE GOOD FOR US TO HAVE ON THE DAIS SO THE PUBLIC KIND OF UNDERSTANDS
THE PROCESS. I DO THINK SOM OF THESE CONVERSATIONS AS COUNCIL MEMBER OSMAN HAD JUST A FEW DAYS AGO, ARE BETTER IN AN INFORMAL SPACE WHERE WE'VE GOT TIME AND EVERY MINUTE QUESTION CAN BE EXHAUSTED SO WE CAN MAKE A
DECISION ONE WAY OR ANOTHER WHEN WE GET ON THE DAIS. I THINK IT'S REALLY A CASE BY CASE AND IT'S THE SORT O THE OVER UNDER ON WHAT DO YOU BELIEVE IS THE FASTEST WAY TO ACTIVATE PARCEL. I THINK NOW TODAY I'M COMFORTAE WITH THIS EXTENSION
AND FEEL LIKE IT'S THE FASTEST WAY TO ACTIVATE THIS SITE. OBVIOUSLY IN TWO YEARS THAT QUESTION WILL BE BACK ON THE TABLE. ONE THING I WAS GOING TO ASK WHICH I'M NOT SURE THE SWER TO, BUT I KNOW THAT WE'VE SEEN A LOT OF, YOU KNOW, 2018
AND 2019, WE SAW A LOT OF LIKE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, NEW BUILD. IT WAS NOT EASY, NOTHING IS EVER EASY. BUT WE SAW THERE WAS A CAPACITY FOR THAT. WAS THIS SORT
OF A VICTIM OF 2020, 2021, 2022? WAS THAT PART OF THE REASON THIS WASN'T COMING TO FRUITION BECAUSE OF MARKET CONDITIONS OR THEY JUST NEEDED TO GET THE RIGHT PACKAGE BEFORE THEY WERE READY TO BREAK GROUND? >> THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION. I THINK THE ANSWER IS SOME OF
BOTH. I MEAN, DEVELOPMENT RIGHTS DID EEND OVER THE PANDEMIC PERIOD. SO CREDIT MARKETS AND THINGS WERE MORE CHALLENGING THEN. BUT I ALSO, YEAH, GOING BACK TO THE FACT THAT THE PROJECT ITSELF AS CONCEIVED, YOU KNOW, CHANGED AND WENT THROUGH A
FEW DIFFERENT KIND OF FORMULATIONS IN TERMS OF THE USES, THE USES CHANGED, AND ALSO JUST THE SIZE AND SCALE IN TERMS OF THE HOUSING. SO THE FINANCING, AND ULTIMATELY, THE FINANCING IS WHAT MAKES A PROJECT GO FORWARD. SO THAT WAS
CHALLENGED BOTH BY THE MARKET CONDITIONS BUT ALSO BY THE PROJECTTSELF CHANGING AND KIND OF SIZE, SHAPE AND FORM OVER THE YEARS. >> FOR SURE. I ASK FOR THAT CLIFICATION JUST TO LET ME COLLEAGUES KNOW THAT NOT EVERY
FOUR, FIVE YEARS ARE CREATED EQUAL. YOU MIGHT HAVE A PROJECT THAT LOOKS LIKE IT'S TAKING FOREVER. IT JUST MAY HAVE HIT TWO YEARS WHERE NOTHING WAS GOING TO HAPPENEGARDLESS OF WHAT THE PROJECT HAD GOING ON. OBVIOUSLY, THERE'S THOSE CONDITIONS WHERE IT'S LIKE THIS IS DRAGGING ON AND WE NEED TO
MOVE ON AND LET SOMEBOD ELSE TAKE A SHOT AT IT. THAT'S THE FINAL POINT. THANK YOU. >> COUNCIL MEMBER CHOWDHURY. >> THANK YOU, CHAIR OSMAN. I WAS GOING TO SPEAK TO A DIFFERENT ITEM. I WAS GOING TO SPEAK TO
ITEM NUMBER 7, WHICH IS AN AMENDMENT, APPROVING AN AMENDMENT TO THE CITY'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. I WTED TO UPLIFT THIS BECAUSE THERE WAS DISCUSSION IN THE PLANNING COMMISSION THAT I WAS A PART OF AND IT WAS APPROVED. IT'S
REQUEST TO TAKE THESE PARCELS ALONGSIDE LAKE STREET FROM OR FROM THE DESIGNATION OF INTERIOR 3 URBAN NEIGHBORHOOD AND BRING IT UP TO CORRIDOR 6. OH. ITEM
NUMBER 9? >> I THINK SO. >> SORRY. MY BAD. THANK YOU FOR THE CORRECTION. >> IT'S ALL GOOD. >> BUT I JUST WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT THIS BECAUSE THE APPLICANT IS BRINGING FORWARD
THIS REQUEST FOR A POTENTIAL PROJECT IN A SET OF LOTS. ONE I BEEVE IS VACANT. AND JUST BRING SOME MUCH NEEDED ACTIVATION INTO THIS AREA, HOUSING INTO THIS AREA. AFTER WE APPROVE THIS WILL ACTUALLY BE SOMETHING THAT OUR CPED
DEPARTMENT SENDS OVER TO THE MET COUNCIL FOR GREATER APPROVAL. I JUST WANTED TO HIGHLHT THIS BECAUSE IN A MOMENT IN TIME WHEN WE'RE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW WE'RE GOING TO ADDRESS THIS HOUSING CRISIS, WE WERE ABLE TO TAKE A LOOK AT OUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND WORK WITH THIS
APPLICANT, COME BEFORE ITERATIVE BODY LIKE THE PLANNING COMMISSION AND SAY YES, THIS TYPE OF REZONING MAKES SENSE. ESPECIALLY IN A CORRIDOR THAT GOES ON TO THE BLUE LINE AND THE GREEN LINE CONNECTIONS. AND SO
JUST WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT THAT. DIDN'T WANT IT TO LET PASS THROUGH CONSENT BECAUSE I THINK IT'S A BIG DEAL. THERE'S ALSO BEEN QUITE A LOT OF PUBLIC COMMENT THAT COMMITTEE MEMBERS MIGHT HAVE SEEN
>> ALL RIGHT. SEEING NO OTHER COMMENTS, I WL APPROVE ALL CONSENT AGENDA. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE. >> AYE. >> AND THOSE OPPOSE SAY NAY. THE AYES HAVE IT AND THE MOTION CARRIES.OW WE WILL BE PROCEEDING TO THE PUBLIC HEARING
PORTION OF OUR AGENDA. ITEM 1 IS A PUBLIC HEARING FOR LAND SCALE FOR TWO PARCELS LOCATED AT CENTENNIAL PLACE AT 9th AND 10th STREET SOUTH. I WILL WELCOME EMILY STERN FROM CPED TO GIVE
THAT PRESENTATION. WELCOME. >> THANK YOU. EMILY STERN WITH CPED BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT. BEFORE YOU TODAY TO AUTHORIZE THE SALE OF TWO PARCELS AT A
SALE PRASE OF $,500. HENNEPIN COUNTY -- OVERALL EXPANSION PLAN FOR THE HENNEPIN HEALTHCARE CAMPUS EXPANSION DOWNTOWN.
COUNCIL APPROVED THE LOCATION BETWEEN 9th AND 10th STREET SOUTH, SUBJECT TO MAINTAINING EASEMENTS FOR WATER, SEWER, AFFIC PURPOSES. THIS LAND SALE WILL BE SUBJECT TO THOSE SAME EASEMENTS WITH AUTHORIZATION FOR
PUBLIC WORKS TO - SALE PRICES FOR BOTH PARCELS WERE ESTABLISHED THROUGH A FAIR MARKET VALUATION PROCESS. THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION. I' STAND FOR ANY QUESTIONS. AND I ALSO WANTED TO MENTION THAT HENNEPIN COUNTY STAFF ARE R
ANY QUESTIONS IF YOU HAVE SPECIFIC QUESTIONS ABOUT THEIR HENNEPIN HEALTHCARE'S EXPANSION PLANS. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT PRESENTATION. RIGHT N I'M GOING TO PROCEED TO OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING AND SEE IF THERE IS ANYONE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM. SEEING NONE,
I'LL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING, AND I WILL MAKE THE MOTION TO APPROVE THIS ITEM. THIS IS LOCATED IN MY DISTRICT, AND I HAVE THE TIME TO GO VISIT AND REALLY SEE THE EXPANSION AND THE PLAN FOR HENNEPIN HEALTHCARE.
IT'S AMAZING WHAT IT WILL LOOK LIKE. THEY HAVE BEEN DOING GREAT ENGAGEMENT WITH THE COMMUNITY. SO THIS IS A WONDERFUL PROJECT THAT'S COMING FORWARD. SO WITH THAT, ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE. >>AYE. >> AND THOSE OPPOSE SAY NAY. THE
AYES HAVE IT AND THE MOTION CARRIES. ALL RIGHT. NOW WE WILL MOVE TO OUR QUASI JUDICIAL ITEM. FIRST IS LICENSE REVOCATION FOR BURRITO LOCO FOR UNPAID
TAXES OF THE STATE OF MINNESOTA. I WILL ASK CITY ATTORNEY IF H HAS ANY UPDATES ON THAT. >> YES, THANK YOU, CHAIR OSMAN. THIS ITEM IS ON THE AGENDA DUE TO THE STATE OF MINNESOTA'S DUE
TO OUTSTANDING TAXES. THE CLEARANCE CERTIFICATE FROM THE STATE OF MINNESOTA INDICATING THAT THOSE TAXES HAVE BEE PAID. >> WONDERFUL. SINCE WE RECEIVED THAT CLEARANCE LETTER, I WIL MOVE TO DELETE THIS ITEM FROM THE ENDA. ALL THOSE ON THE
MOTION, ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE. >> AYE. >> THOSE OPPOSED SAY NAY. THE AYESAVE IT AND THE MOTION CARRIES. OKAY. ADDITIONALLY, I WILL MOVE TO DELETE THIS FROM THE AGENDA OF THE CITY COUNCIL MEETING ON MAY 15TH. WE HAVE
FINAL ITEM FOR THAT. ALL RIGHT. ITEM 4 -- I'M SORRY, ITEM 14 IS A DISCUSSION ITEM. THE LAST ITEM WE WILL TAKE. WE WILL BE
CONSIDERING RESOLUTION APPROVING GLENDALE TOWN HOMES AS A LOCAL HISTORIC DISTRICT DESIGNATION. WELCOME, SIR. >> THANK YOU, CHAIR OSMAN, AND
GOOD AFTERNOON, COUNCIL MEMBERS. MY NAME IS ROB. I'M A SENIOR CITY PLANNER IN THE HISTORIC PLANNING DIVISION IN CPED. TODAY, I'M PRESENTING A DISCUSSION ITEM TO CONSIDER RESOLUTION APPROVING HISTORIC
DISTRICT DESIGNATION FOR THE GLENDALE TOWN HOUSES HISTORIC DISTRICT. ENDALE TOWN HOUSES AS COMMONLY KNOWN TODAY IS A MULTI-FAMILY HOUSING COMPLEX CONSISTING OF 28 BUILDINGS ON 13 ACRES OF LAND IN THE PROSPECT
PARK NEIGHBORHOOD. THE MINNEAPOLIS HOUSING AND REDEVELR REVELOPMENT AUTHORITY WHICH LATER BECAME THE MINNEAPOLIS PUBLIC HOUSING AUTHOTY HIRED THE LOCAL ARCHITECTURAL FIRM TO
DESIGN THE COMPLEX. CONSTRUCTED AT THE END OF THE PROSPECT PARK NEIGHBORHOOD, THE PROJECT KNOWN AS GLENDALE TOWN HOUSES WAS DESIGNED TO FOLLOW THE CHARACTER OF PROSPEC PARK WITH CURVE
LINEAR STREETS, LARGE LAWNS, GREEN SPACES, AND PLAYGROUNDS BETWEEN THE BUILDINGS. RECTANGULAR IN PLAN WITH A FRONT
POR PORTICO, COMPOSITE SIDING S REPLACED THE CEMENT ASBESTOS SIDING. REPLACED WITH HIP ROOFS AND GABLE ROOFS OVER THE PORTIC,
ON . DUE TO THESE ALTERATIONS, STAFF ULTIMATELY RECOMMENDED DENIAL OF THE HISTORIC DISTRICT NOMINAON AND DESIGNATION CONSIDERING THE LOSS OF WHAT IS CONSIDERED HISTORIC INTEGRITY OR THE ABILITY FOR THE PROPERTIES TO PORTRAY THEIR SIGNIFICANCE.
IN 2024, COUNCIL MEMBER ROBIN WONSLEY NOMINATED THE POTENTIAL GLENDALE TN HOUSES HISTORIC DISTRICT FOR CONSIDERATION AS LOCAL HISTORIC DISTRICT. THE NO
JUNE 4, 2024, HBC MEETING. -- DESIGNATION STUDY THAT WAS COMPILED IN 2019 WHICH CONCLUDED THE PROPERTIES DID NOT APPEAR ELIGIBLE DUE TO A LOSS OF HISTORIC INTEGRITY.
NOTWITHSTANDING, THEHPC APPROVED AND DIRECTED THE PLANNING DIRECTOR TO PREPARE THE STUDY FOR THE GLENDALE TOWN HOUSES HISTORIC DISTRICT. IT EXPIRES ON JUNE 4, 2025. THE
DESIGNATION WAS HEARD AT THE APRIL 8, 2025, HPC MEETING. DUE TO TIM CONSTRAINTS BECAUSE OF CAUS NIGHT, THE HPC HAD TO VOTE TO CONTINUE BECAUSE A LOT OF MEMBERS OF PUBLIC DID SHOW UP
TO COMMENT AT THAT APRILTH MEETING. NOTWITHSTANDING STAFF RECOMMENDATION, THE HERITAGE COMMISSION VOTED TO RECOMMEND THE CITY COUNCIL APPROVE THE GLENDALE TOWN HOUSES AS HISTORIC
DISTRICT BECAUSE THE DISTRICT COMPLIED WITH CRIRIA NUMBER 1 FOR SOCIAL HISTORY AND NUMBER 9 FOR LANDSCAPE DESIGN. INCLUDED TH FOLLOWING FINDINGS, ONE, IT IS THE FIRST AFFORDABLE HOUSING
PROJECT IN MINNEAPOLIS AND THUS ITS SOCIAL ANDOMMUNITY PLANNING IS QUALIFIED AS LANDMARKABLETWO, IT RETAINS THE LANDSCAPE AND VOLUMETRIC
INGRITY WHEN THE BUILDINGS WERE BUILT. THREE, THE BUILDINGS STILL CONTAIN THEIR HISTORIC INTEGRITY. ALTHOUGH THE HPC RECOGNIZES THAT THEY HAVE BEEN CHANGED OVER TIME. SIGNIFICANCE FROM 1952, WHICH WAS THE DATE OF
THEIR CONSTRUCTION, TO 1972, THE DATE OF THE FIRST MAJOR ALTERATIONS TO THE BUILDING. SO THERE'S A CLEAR DEMARCATION FROM THE FIRST TIME THE BUILDINGS WERE MODIFIED. ALS WITH KNOWLEDGE THAT THIS COULD BE EXTENDED AT A LATER DATE. AT THE
PUBLIC HEARING, THE MINNEAPOLIS PUBLIC HOUSING AUTHORITY WHO ARE THE PROPERTY OWNER STRONGLY OPPOSED THE DESIGNATION OF THE HISTORIC DISTRICT. COUNCIL MEMBER ROBIN WONSLEY AND THE PROSPECT PARK ASSOCIATION HAVE VOICED THEIR SUPPORT FOR THE
DESIGNATION. THE COMMUNITY GROUP KNOWN AS DEFEND GLENDALE IS IN SUPPORT OF THEDISTRICT'S DESIGNATION. STAFF RECEIVED AROUND 100 WRITTEN COMMENTS IN SUPPORT, BUT SOME OF THOSE AGAINST THE DESIGNATION. AND THESE PUBLIC COMMENTS WERE
INCLUDED. WITH THAT, I'M AVAILABLE AS STAFF FOR ANY QUESTIONS. THANK YOU. >> TNK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT PRESENTATION. I JUST WANT TO REMIND MEMBE THAT THIS IS QUASI -- I KNOW IT SAYS DISCUSSION BUT IT'S ALSO QUASI
JUDICIAL. IS THAT CORRECT? LOOKING AT THE FACTS. >> CHAIR OSMAN, THIS IS A QUASI JUDICIAL HEARING, HOWEVER, THE PUBLIC HEARING HAS ALREADY BEEN HELD AT THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMITTEE SO YOU'RE NOT OBLIGATED TO HOLD ANOTHER BLIC HEARING. YOU MAY PROCEED
TO YOUR REVIEW AND CELEBRATION OF THE FACTS FORHIS ITEM. >> SURE. THANK YOU SO MUCH. I WAS JUST HIGHLIGHTING THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT THE FACTS IN FRONT OF US AS A QUASI JUDICIAL. MY FIRST QUESTION IS, CAN YOU PUT IT UP OR DO YOU HAVE THE FINDING OF
THE HERITAGE PRESERVATION, IS IT ON YOUR SLIDES? >> CHAIR OSMAN, UNFOUNATELY, I DID NOT PUT THOSE ON THE SLIDES. THE SLIDES ARE ACTUALLY T SAME SLIDES THAT THE HERITAGE PRESERVATION COMMISSION SAW AT THEIR PUBLIC HEARING. I WOULD BE HAPPY TO READ THOSE AGAIN IF
THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL. >> PLEASE. >> SO THE FIR FINDING IS THAT IT IS THE FIRST AFFORDABLE HOUSING PJECT IN MINNEAPOLIS AND THUS IT'S SOCIAL AND COMMUNITY PLANNING QUALIFIED AS LANDMARKABLE. THE SECOND IS THAT
IT RETAINS THE LANDSCAPE AND VOLUMETRIC INTEGRITY THAT WAS INITIALLY CREATED WHEN THE BUILDINGS WERE BUILT AND CITED. AND THIRD, THE BUILDINGS STILL CONVEY THEIR HISTORIC INTEGRITY. ALTHOUGH THE HPC RECOGNIZES THAT THEY HAVE BEEN CHANGED OVER
TIME. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH. I REMEMBER ABOUT FOUR AND A HALF YEARS AGO, FIVE YEARS AGO,HIS ITEM CAME FORWARD. THE HERITAGE PRESERVATION ALSO RECOMMENDED
THAT THIS DOES QUALIFY FOR HISTORICAL DESIGNATION SITE. AND NOW IT'S IN FRONT OF US. SO I WANT TO OPEN TO MY COLLEAGUES IF THEY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS ON THIS ITEM. COUNCIL MEMBER JEREMIAH LISON.
>> YEAH, I'LL GIVE JUST MY HISTORY IN DEALING WITH THIS. I'LL STAY PRETTY HIGH LEVEL UNLESS MY COLLEAGUES HAVE SPECIFIC QUESTIONS. FROM MY VANTAGE POINT I'VE SEEN TWO DIFFERENT REPRESENTATIVES OVER A SPAN OF TIME BOTH ADVOCATE FOR
THIS. I'VE SEENOMMUNITY MEMBERS SINCE BEFORE MY TIME IN OFFICE AND SINCE I'VE BEEN IN OFFICE CONTINUE TO ADVOCATE FOR TH. YOU KNOW, I THINK THAT I WAS BACK WHEN THISIRST CAME UP BEFORE THE COMMITTEE, I THINK IT WAS OPEN TO THE ARGUMENT THAT
THIS WAS GOING TO BE -- THIS LAND WAS GOING TO BE DEVELOPED IN SOME WAY. IT'S BEEN, YOU KNOW, IT'S BEE A WHILE AND IT JUST HASN'T OCCURRED. DEVELOPMENT HASN'T OCCURR. I DON'T KNOW FULLY WHAT THE PUBLIC
HOUSING AUTHORITY THINKS THEIR TIMELINE IS. BUT I'M INCLINED TO SUPPORT THIS. WE HAVE TWO SETS OF FACTS. WE HAVE FACTS THAT BOTH COULD SUPPORT APPROVAL OF THIS, AND WE HAVE FACTS THAT COULD SUPPORTDENIAL. AND SO FROM THAT VANTAGE POINT I FEEL
LIKE WE'RE KIND OF COVERED IN TERMS OF LEGAL BASIS. THAT'S MY ANALYSIS. BUT GIVEN, AND SO GIVEN THAT I THINK THAT I'M PROBABLY GOING TO BE VOTING IN FAVOR OF GRANTING THIS HTORIC DESIGNATION. AND SO I'M HAPPY TO
ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS FROM MY COLLEAGUES ABOUT WHY OR, YOU KNOW, OBVIOUSLY WE'VE GOT OUR EXPERTS IN FRONT OF US TO TALK ABOUT THAT. AND YEAH. SO JUST WANT TO LETOLKS KNOW. OTHERWISE, IS THERE A MOTION BEFORE US? I'M HAPPY TO MAKE THE MOTION TO GRANT THE HISTORIC
DESIGNATION. >> COUNCIL MEMBER JENKINS. >> THANK YOU, CHAIR OSMAN. AND I TOO HAVE BEEN ENGAGED IN THIS CONVERSATION SINCE ABOUT 2018.
AND YOU KNOW, INITIALLY, I WAS HEARING FROM DEFEND GLENDALE THAT THEY WERE DEEPLY CONCERNED THAT MPHA WAS TRYING TO DRIVE
THEM OUT OF THE HOMES. THAT THE PLANS THAT WERE BEING PUT FORTH CREATE SIGNIFICANT HARDSHIP FOR THE RESIDENTS, THAT WOULD DISPLACE RESIDENTS,
ET CETERA, ET CETERA. AND YOU KNOW, AND THIS ITEM THAT WAS BROUGHT FORTH BY FORMER COUNCIL MEMBER CAM GORDON SAT ON THIS AGENDA, THIS BHZ COMMITTEE'S
AGENDA FOR OVER A YEAR AND WAS CONTINUOUSLY PASSED ON UNTIL SUBSEQUENTLY IT WAS FINALLY REMOVED FROM THE AGENDA PERMANENTLY. YOU KNOW, I JUST
FEEL LIKE I DON'T SEE HOW THIS HISTORIC DESIGNATION WILL HELP THOSE RESIDENTS. IT WILL CREATE SIGNIFICANT HARDSHIPS TO RESTORE THE PROPERTIES, TO REHAB THE
PROPERTIES, TO DO ANY ADDITIONS TO THE PROPERTIES. IT LITERALLY, I'M CONFUSED. IT BOGGLES MY MIND THAT DEFEND GLENDALE WOULD BE ADVOCATING FOR THIS ACTION WHEN
THEIR ENTIRE REASON FOR CREATING DEFEND, THE GROUP DEFEND GLENDALE WAS TO PROTECT THE RESIDENTS THAT LIVE THERE. THAT IS THEIR MISSION OF THAT ORGANIZATION. AND THIS WOULD
SUBSEQUENTLY GO COMPLETELY AGAINST THAT MISSION STATEMENT. SO I'M HAVING A REALLY HARD TIME CONSIDERING SUPPORTING HISTORIC DESIGNATION FOR THE GLENDALE
TOWN HOMES. THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU, COUNCIL MEMBER JENKINS. I WILL RECOGNIZE COUNL MEMBER RAINVILLE. >> THANK YOU. I AM GOING TO VOTE TO DENY THIS DESIGNATION. I STAND WITH OUR STAFF RECOMMDATION. AND TO THE EXPERTS AT THE HOUSING
AUTHORITY, THEY HAVE CONVINCED MEHAT THIS IS GOING TO DRIVE UP THE PRICE OF ANY REHABILITAON. AND CLEARLY, THE WAY THE ROOFS HAVE BEEN ALTERED AND SIDING IS NOT CLOSE TO THE HISTORIC BUILDINGS THAT WERE BUILT THERE. I DO NOT WAN TO HURT THE RESIDENTS WITH THESE
HIGHER COSTS. IT WILL ONLY JUST EXAGGERATE THE CURRENT PROBLEMS. THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU, COUNCIL MEMBER RAINVILLE. I PUT MYSELF IN QUEUE. I JUST WANT TO FREELY KINDA DRIVE AND SAY THAT I WAS PART OF THIS PROCESS FOR FOUR
AND A HALF YEARS AGO WHEN FORMER COUNCIL MEMBER CAM GORDON BROUGHT IT UP. I DID NOT SUPPORT THIS ITEM AT THAT TIME. NOW THAT I WAS ABLE TO WATCH THE PUBLIC
HEARING, RESIDENT LOW INCOME IMMIGRANT COMMUNITY CAME FORWARD TO SPEAK. I VISITED THE LOCATION. IT HAS THAT UNIQUE, NOT ANY OTHER PROPERTIES AROUND THAT AREA IS LIKE THAT. IT'S A
BIGGER SPACE FOR THE COMMUNITY. WHEN I WAS WALKING THERE, I SAW MANY CHILDREN PLAYING AROUND. EACH FAMILY I BELIEVE HAD SOME KIND OF BACKYARD, MORE SPACIOUS
WAY OF COMMUNITY TO PLAY AND, YOU KNOW, BURN ENERGY. THEY HAVE AN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL THERE. THEY HAVE PARK THERE. THERE'S A LOT OF GREAT THINGS AROUND THOSE NEIGHBORS THAT THEY HAVE BEEN ENJOYING FOR A LONG TIME. AND AS
MENTIONED, THIS WAS BUILT IN 1952, I BELIEVE. AND IT WAS ALTERED AROUND '79-'80s. BUT THE CORE OF IT, IT STILL LOOKS THAT
OLD SPACE AROUND THAT PROSPECT PARK AREA. AS WE SEE UNIVERSITY AVENUE, THERE'S MORE HIGH RISE BUILDING. THERE'S MORE DENSITY. I KNOW AS A CITY WE'RE PUSHING DENSITY. REPRESENT THE BIGGEST
DENSITY WARD IN OUR CITY. AS YOU CAN IMAGINE CEDAR-RIVERSIDE IS CLOSE TO 10,000 PEOPLE. PUBLIC HEARING, IT'S ALSO THE SECOND TIME THAT HERITAGE PRESERVATION
HAD ROMMENDED THAT THIS DOES QUALIFY, AND FIND THOSE FINDINGS -- I WILL AGREE AND ALSO SUPPORT COUNCIL MEMBER ELLISON'S MOTION TO APPROVE FOR HISTORICAL PRESERVATION ON THIS
ITEM. I SAW THE RESIDENTS THAT CONTINUE TO FIGHT AND REALLY SAY THIS IS OUR LAND. THIS IS PLACE WE GREW UP. I MET SOME STUDENTS THAT WERE BORN THERE. NOW THEY'RE IN COLLEGE. 19, 20 YEARS
OLD. THAT I HAD A CONVERSATION WITH THEM. THIS IS WHAT THEY HAVE GOT USED TO . I UNDERSTAND THE MPHA PLAN TO REALLY CREATE MORE HOUSING. THEY HAVE A LARGE WAITING LIST OF
FOLKS THAT ARE WAITING TO GET IN THERE. BUT AT THE SAME TIME, WHAT WAS NOT CLEAR TO ME, I KNOW THIS IS NOT PART OF THE FACT. BUT WHAT WAS NOT CLEAR TO ME WAS WHERE IS THE FUNDING COMING FROM? IT'S GOING TO BE MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, THE COST OF THIS. WHERE IS THAT
COMING FROM I ATTENDED A PRESENTATION MPHA HAS HELD WITH THE RESIDENTS. I SAW THE DRAWING AND DIFFERENT OPTIONS OF DEVELOPMENT.UT I QUESTION A LOT WHEN DEFINITELY MPHA IS STRULING TO KEEP UP THE
HOUSING THEY HAVE AND MAKING SURE THE FIRE SPRINKLER AND OTHER THINGS THAT AND UPKEEPING THE OLDER PROPERTIES THE HAVE. AND ONE THING I HAVE HEARD, AND I KNOW THIS IS NOT A PLACE THAT WE CAN ASK QUESTIONS, MAYBE I'LL
ASK YOU A QUESTION, IS THAT MANY OF THE RESIDENTS I TALKED TO SAY THAT MPHA TOLD THEM THAT IF THIS WAS BUILT -- I'M SORRY, IF THIS IS DESIGNATED AS HISTORICAL DESIGNATION, THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO GET BASIC MAINTENANCE.
MEANING FIXING DOORS, INTERIOR FIXING. SO I WANT TO ME SURE THAT WE GET CLARIFICATION OF WHAT THE RESIDENTS ARE HEARING AND WHAT IS THE IDEAL -- WHAT WILL THAT LOOK LIKE IF WE DESIGNATE THIS AS HISTORICAL
DESIGNATION, DOES THAT MEAN THE DOORKNOBS WILL NOT BE FIXED? >> CHAIR OSMAN, THANK YOU FOR THE QUESTION. THE CITY HAS 20 LOCALLY DESIGNATED HISTORIC DISTRICTS. SOME OF THEM GOING BACK 50 YEARS. THERE'S -- WE
REVIEW PROJECTS AS THEY COME IN FOR PERMITS. BUT THE IDEA THAT MAINTENANCE WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO BE CARRIED OUT IS NOT ACCURATE. THAT'S, YOU KNOW, WE REVIEW PROJECTS THAT COME IN THROUGH
PERMITS. WE REVIEW THEM THROUGH FEDERAL PRESERVATION STANDARDS, LOCAL HISTORIC DISTRICT GUIDELINES TT ARE ADOPTED FOR OUR HISTORIC DISTRICTS WHICH WOULD BE THE NEXT STEP IF THIS WERE TO GO FORWARD FOR DESIGNATION. SO WE REVIEW
PROJECTS BUT THEY'RE NOT THINGS TH YOU KNOW DESIGNATION PUTS A HOLD ON FOR MAINTENANCE. >> DOES DESIGTION INCLUDE INTERIOR WORK LIKE CABINETS, KITCHEN APPLIANCE, AND FIXING
BASIC THINGS? WOULD THAT BE AFFECTED? >> CHAIR OSMAN, NOT WITH THIS DESIGNATION. THAT WOULD REQUIRE AN INTERIOR DESIGNATION, WHICH IS VERY RARE AT THE CITY. SO THIS IS JUST EXTERIOR ALTERATIONS THAT ARE BEING REVIEWED IF THIS WERE TO GO
FORWARD. >> OKAY. I THINK IT'S VERY GOOD TO BE CLEAR THAT RESIDENTS WILL NOT BE AFFECTED. THEY WILL BE ABLE TO GET MAINTENANCE FIXED. THEY WILL BE ABLE TO GET THE BASIC THINGS DONE WHILE THEY
REMAIN AT PLACES THEY HAVE CONTINUE TO ADVOCATE AND SPOKE ABOUT THAT THEY WANT TO REMAIN THIS PLACE AND THEY DON WANT HIGH RISE PLACE. AND ALSO, THE IDEA OF RELOCATION ALSO CAME UP A LOT, TOO. OKAY. I'LL GIVE MY
COLLEAGUES AN OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK. COUNCIL MEMBER JENKINS. >> THANK YOU, CHAIR OSMAN. I GUESS I JUST WANTED TO ASK, IS THIS THE FIRST TOWN HOME PROJECT
IN MINNEAPOLIS? >> CHAIR OSMAN, COUNCIL MEMBER JENKINS, THIS IS THE ORIGINAL, WHAT BECAME MPHA, THE ORIGINAL PROJECT THAT WAS COMPLETED AS TOWN HOMES IN 1952.
>> NOT SURE IF I'M -- SO IT WAS THE FIRST THEN IS WHAT YOU'RE SAYING? >> YES. >> BECAUSE I SEEM TO RECALL THE TOWN HOMES ALONG OLSON HIGHWAY,
I MEAN, WE COMPLETELY TORE THOSE DOWN. I THOUGHT THOSE WERE THE FIRST ONES IN THE CITY. BUT IF YOU'RE SAYING THESE ARE THE FIRST, I GUESS I TAKE YOUR WORD
FOR IT. I'M SURE THAT IMPROVEMENTS CAN BE MADE INTERIOR. BUT WOULD THEY BE MORE COSTLY BECAUSE OF THIS HISTORIC DESIGNATION? >> CHAIR OSMAN, COUNCIL MEMBER JENKINS, I CAN'T SPEAK TO THAT
EXACTLY. IT'S MORE SO -- >> WHEN YOU REVIEW OTHER PROJECTS THAT COME FORWARD FOR RENOVATION, IMPROVEMENTS, ET CETERA, DOES THE HISTORIC DESIGNATION INCREASE THE COST OF THOSE IMPROVEMENTS?
>> CNCIL MEMBER JENKINS, NOT TO MY KNOWLEDGE. WHEN WE REVIEW PROJECTS, I MENTIONED EARLIER, WE DO IT THROUGH THE FEDERAL SECRETARY OFHE INTERIOR STANDARDS. THEY'RE 10 VERY OPEN
POINTS THAT PROJECTS THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY ADHERE TO WHEN EVALUATING ALTERATIONS TO HISTORIC PROPERTIES. WHAT THEY ESSENTIALLY ADVOCATE FOR ARE SEEING IF SOMETHING CAN BE RETAINED AS IS. IF IT CAN'T BE
RETAINED AS IS, CAN IT BE REPAIRED? IF IT CAN'T BE REPAIRED, CAN IT BE REPLACED IN KIND? IT DEPENDS ON THE LEV HAVE DETERIORATION THAT WE'RE SEEING FOR DIFFERENT ITEMS. THAT'S PART OF THE REVIEW PROCESS THAT WOULD COME FORWARD
FOR ANY PROPERTY THAT'S DESIGNAT AS HISTORIC DISTRICT. THAT'S WHAT STAFF WOULD BE EVALUATING. THAT'S WHAT THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION WOULD BE EVALUATING. >> I DO HAVE A HISTORIC DISTRICT
INARD 8, AND THOSE PROPERTIES EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE TO MAINTAIN, TO REPAIR, TO REHAB, ET CETERA, ET CETERA. YOU KNOW, I GUESS JUST WANT TO EXPRESS I AM SO DEEPLY CONCERNED ABOUT THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND HUD. I MEAN, THEY ALREADY UNDER FUND THESE PROPERTIES, THESE COMMUNITIES, YOU KNOW, THROUGHOUT ITS 50-YEAR PLUS HISTORY. AND WITH THIS CURRENT ADMINISTRATION, I MEAN, THE TALK
IS TO REALLY ALMOST ELIMINATE HUD AT THE FEDERAL LEVEL. AND I THINK THATOULD JUST PUT THESE PROPERTIES IN MORE JEOPARDY. AND PUT SOME OF THE MOST AFFORDABLE
HOUSING THAT WE HAVE IN THE CITY IN JEOPARDY OF MAINTAINING THAT AFFORDABILITY. SO I, YOU KNOW, THOSE ARE MY THOUGHTS AND MY OPINIONS AND I HOPE WE CONSIDER THAT AS WE MAKE THESE DECISIONS. THANK YOU.
>> I'LL RECOGNIZE COUNCIL MEMBER CASHMAN. >>HANK YOU, CHAIR OSMAN. I WAS JUST, YOU KNOW, REVIEWING THE REPORTS ON THIS AND I DO SEE THAT. THAT THE STAFF FINDINGS HAVE SAID THE DISTRICT HAS LOST HISTORIC INTEGRITY OF DESIGN,
MATERIALS, WORKMANSHIP, ASSOCIATION. NO NEW INFORMATION OR EVIDENCE HAS BEEN PRESENTED THAT WOULD ALLOW CPED TO RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF HISTORIC DISTRICT IN OPPOSITION TO THE STUDY FINDINGS. SO MY READ OF THE FACTS IS THAT IN DENIAL OF
HISTORIC DESIGNATION. HOWEVER, I DO WANT TO ASK THE QUESTION THAT I'M MOST CONCERNED ABOUT HERE WHICH IS THE POTENTIAL DISPLACEMENT OF RESIDENTS IN THE PROCESS OF RENOVATIONS. BECAUSE I THINK THAT'S PROBABLY VERY CONCERNING TO ALL THE PEOPLE W
ARE CURRENTLY LIVING THERE. AND COUNCIL MEMBERS REPRESENTING THE AREA AS LL. I'M WONDERING IF STAFF COULD SPEAK TO WHAT'S ANTICIPAD EITHER WITH THE HISTORIC DESIGNATION OR WITHOUT IT IN TERMS OF THE COMMUNITY THAT'S BEEN LIVING THERE.
>> THANK YOU, CHAIR OSMAN, COUNCIL MEMBER CASHMAN, AS FAR AS THE COMMUNITY CLAIMS AND ABOUT DISPLACEMENT, THAT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT WE'RE ABLE TO EVALUATE THROUGH A DESIGNATION. WE'RE ONLY LOOKING AT EXISTING CONDITIONS OF THE BUILDINGS, THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PROPERTY AS
IS. SO YOU KNOW, ANY FUTURE PLANS AT THIS SITE, IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT WE'RE TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THROUGH VALUATING A DESIGNATION OF A DISTRICT. >> OKAY. THAT'SAIR. I THINK MY READ OF THE FACTS STANDS. BUT I JUST WANT TO COMMUNICATE TO THE
CHAIR AND THE VICE CHAIR THAT THAT'S A CONCERN FOR ME AS THIS PROJECT CONTINUES TO MOVE FORWARD. I HOPE WE CAN CONTINUE TO HAVE CONVERSATIONS OUTSIDE OF THIS QUA JUDICIAL MATTER REGARDING THE COMMUNITY WHO
LIVES THERE NOW. >> DO YOU WANT TO ADD? >> CHAIROSMAN, JUST A CLARIFICATION HERE. REGARDING COUNCIL MEMBER JENKINS' POINT
EARLIER.ENATOR TOWN HOMES WAS THE FIRST TOWN HOMES BUILT. STAFF'S RESNSE WAS THESE ARE THE ONES WE'RE EVALUATING HERE. THESE ARE THE REMAINING TOWN HOMES THAT ARE THE EARLIEST HERE. SO TRE'S CLARIFICATION THERE TO THAT POINT THAT WAS
ADDRESSED EARLIER. >> THANK YOU. COUNCIL MEMBER ELLISON. >> THANK YOU. JUST WANT TO SAY WE'VE GOT TWO SETS OF FACTS. BOTH FROM FOLKS WHO I WOULD DEEM EXPERTS. OUR STAFF I THINK ARE EXPERTS AND KNOW HOW TO EVALUATE THESE KINDS OF SITUATIONS. I
WOULD ALSO SAY THAT THE HPC ALSO ARE EXPERTS AND KNOW HOW TO EVALUATE THESE TYPES OF SITUATIONS. SO WE HAVE FACTS THAT ARE IN DISPUTE. AND SO I THINK WE'VE GOT A STRONG CASE TO
MAKE EITHER DECISION. YOU KNOW, TO MY MIND, IT'S WHILE IT'S A LITTLE BIT OUTSIDE OF THE SCOPE TO TALK ABOUT, YOU KNOW, FUTURE PLANS AND THOSE KINDS OF THINGS. THOSE THINGS HAVE COME UP. SO I THINK IT'S KIND OF FAIR TO SAY THAT WHEN THE HOUSING MARKET WAS
IN A HEALTHY PLACE AND WE SAW A LOT OF CONSTRUCTIONHAPPENING, THERE WAS AMPLE OPPORTUNITY FOR THIS TO BE A PART OF THAT. AND IT WASN'T A PART OF THAT. THE DEVELOPMENT DIDN'T HAPPEN. THE TRANSITION DIDN'T HAPPEN. WE SAW OTHER MPHA HOUSING RENOVATIONS
OCCUR, AND SO WE KNOW MPHA IS TOTALLY CAPABLE OF IT. AND SO TO MY MIND, WE'RE KIND OF IN THIS -- BECAUSE WE HAVE SETS OF FACTS THAT WILL SUPPORT EITHER
DECISION, AND BECAUSE I'M SORT OF LOOKING AT ALL THE CONTE AROUND THIS AND ASKING MYSELF AT WHAT POINT ARE WE PROJECTING A LITTLE BIT TOO MUCH INTO THE FUTURE QUESTIONS WE DON'T KNOW THE ANER TO. THE COST. FUTURE COST. WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT THE CURRENT DEFERRED
MAINTENANCE. WHY THAT DEFERRED MAINTENANCE EXISTS. CERTAINLY COMMUNITY MEMBERS HAVE THEIR NARRATIVE. RIGHT. AND SO DOES MPHA. TO ME, IT'S A QUESTION OF ARE WE GOING TO BE PATERNALISTIC ABOUT WHAT WE TELL THE NEIGHBORS
IS GOOD FOR THEM OR ARE WEOING TO LOOK AT TWO SETS OF FACTS THAT COME TO DIFFERENT CONCLUSIONS. ALSO LISTEN TO WHAT WE'RE HEARING FROM RESIDENTS WHO LIVE IN THE TOWN HOMES. I'M A LITTLE LESS CONCERNED WITH RESIDENTS WHO DON'T LIVE IN THE
TOWN HOMES. BUT ARE WE GOING TO LISTEN TO THEM? THIS ADVOCACY HERE GOES BACK PROBABLY LONGER THAN 2015. BUT I KNOW THAT I WASN'T IN OFFICE IN 2015 AND EVEN I WAS A PART OF SOME OF THESE CONVERSATIONS AROUND DEFEND GLENDALE AND THE GLENDALE
TOWN HOMES. I THINK AFTER A WHILE YOU'VE GOT TO ASK YOURSELF IF THERE WAS NO MERIT TO THIS HISTORIC PRESERVATION, THEN WHY HASN'T RENOVATION OCCURRED ALREADY? IF TRE WAS NO MERIT TO HISTORIC RENOVATION, WHY HAVE THE NEIGHBO REMAINED ADAMANT IN THEIR ADVOCACY FOR OVER A
DECADE? AND I THERE'S NO MERIT TO HISTORIC PRESERVATION, THEN WHY HAVE TWO SEPARATE COUNCIL MEMBERS WHO AT ONE POINT RAN AGAINST EACH OTHER. SO IT'S NOT LIKE THEY WERE IN LOCK STEP IN AGREEMENT ON EVERYTHING. WHY DID TWO COUNCIL MEMBERS BOTH ASSERT
THAT THIS IS SOMHING THEY THINK SHOULD EXIST IN THEIR WARDS. AND I THINK LOOKING AT ALL THE CONTEXT, THE DECISION THAT MAKES THE MOST SENSE TO ME IS TO GRANT THIS HISTORIC DESIGNATION AND ALLOW THIS TO MOVE FORWARD. SO I JUST WANTED TO GIVE THAT CONTEXT. I DON'T
WANT IT TO SEEM LIKE, YOU KNOW, THERE'S NO FINDINGS OF FACT TO GRANT THIS. THERE ARE FINDINGS OF FACT TO DENY IT. BUT THERE ARE ALSO FINDINGS OF FACT TO GRANT THIS. I JUST WANTED TO MAKE THAT CLEAR. >> ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU.OUNCIL MEMBER CHOWDHURY.
>> THANK YOU, CHAIR OSMAN. I DID HAVE A QUESTION JUST IN UNDERSTANDING THE PROCESS WHERE THERE'S CERTAIN DESIGNATIONS FOR HISTORIC PRESERVATION. I KNOW THERE HAVE BEEN DIFFERENT REPAIRS THAT PROPERTY OWNERS HAVE WANTED TO DO THAT HAVE LIK
DIFFERED FROM WHAT WAS RECOMMENDED UNDER HISTORIC PRESERVATION. AND THEY WENT BEFORE I BELIEVE THE HPC TO ASK FOR JUST A GRANTING OF THAT MOVING FORWARD IN A DIFFERENT DIRECTION. AND THEN THAT HAS BEEN EITHER APPROVED OR DENIED.
AND IF DENIED, IT COMES BEFORE THIS COMMITTEE. IF THE PROPERTY OWNER, MPHA, WERE TO DECIDE TO REDEVELOP AND COME UP WITH A DIFFERENT PLAN FOR THIS AREA, WHAT WLD BE THE PROCESS FOR
EM SHOULD THERE ARE HISTORIC DESIGNATION IN THIS AREA? >> THANK YOU, CHAIR OSMAN, COUNCIL MEMBER CHOWDHURY, THE PROCESS I THINK AS YOU DETAILED IS, YOU KNOW, THERE IS A PROCESS. SO IT WOULDO IN FRONT OF THE HERITAGE PRESERVATION
COMMISSION IF ALTERATIONS ARE BEING PROPOSED. AND THEN THE COMMISSION WOULD MAKE A DECISION ON WHATEVER APPLICATION HAS BEEN SUBMITTED. FROM THATPOINT, IF THE PROPERTY OWNER DISAGREES WITH THAT, YOU'RE CORRECT, THEY HAVE THE RIGHT TO APPEAL AND THAT WOULD COME HERE IN FRONT OF
BHZ. AS FAR AS, YOU KNOW, GOING FORWARD AND WHATEVER THE PROPERTY OWNER WOULD WANT TO DO IN THE FUTURE, THAT WOULD JUST HAVE TO ADHERE TO THE PROCESS. SO AS I'M NOT CERTAIN WHAT THE PROPERTY OWNER IS PLANNING FOR
FUTURE CHANGES, BUT IT'S NOT SOMETHING WHERE, YOU KNOW, STAFF JUST SAYS NO, YOU CAN'T DO THAT. THERE'S A PROCESS THAT'S BUILT INTO IT. AND IT GOES IN FRONT OF THE HERITAGE PRESERVATION COMMISSION FOR THEIR DECISION.
IF NOT AGREED UPON BY THE APPLICANT, THEY HAVE THE ABILITY TO APPEAL THAT. >> AND JUST TO FURTHER MY UNDERSTANDING OF THAT PROCESS, WHAT IF THE PROPERTY OWNER WANTED TO REZONE AREA? WOULD THAT STILL GO THROUGH THE SAME PROCESS OR AN INTERSECTION
BETWEEN HPC AND BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT? >> SO REZONING, YOU KNOW, ISN'T SOMETHING THAT WOULD GO IN FRONT OF THE HERITAGE PRESERVATION COMMISSION. THE HPC MAY ADOPT DESIGN GUIDELINES IN THAT SITUATION. YOU KNOW, WHATEVER PLANS THE PROPERTY OWNER HAS
WOULD HAVE TO ADHERE T THOSE DESIGN GUIDELINES, WHATEVER THE ZONING MAY BE. BUT AGAIN, THERE IS THE PROCESS BUILT IN FOR THE HERITAGE PRESERVATION MMISSION, AND IF NEED BE, THROUGH APPEAL, BHZ AND COUNCIL
TO MAKE DECISIONS TO APPLICATIONS. >> RIGHT. OKAY. SO IT WOULD GO THROUGH HPC OR OTHER BODIES DEPENDING ON WHAT THE APPLICANT, THE APPROPRIATE OWNER IS REQUESTING. AND THEN IF THE PROPERTY OWNER IS NOT IN
AGREEMENT, THEY WOULD COME BACK TO BUSINESS, HOUSING AND ZONING AND THEN FULL COUNCIL AND THEN LAND HERE. I THINK I'M MAKING THIS POINT BECAUSE THESE ARE A SET OF FACTS WE CAN LOOK TO THE FUTURE. THESE ARE PROCESSES WE HAVE IN PLACE. CONSIDERING
WHAT'S BEFORE US, WHICH IS DOES THIS QUALIFY FOR HISTORIC DESIGNATION, I'M REALLY ATTACHED TO CRITERION ONE WHICH I FEEL WAS LAID OUT WELL BY THE HPC. RIGHT. THIS PROPERTY IS ASSOCIATED WITH SIGNIFICANT
EVENTS OR WITH PERIODS THAT EXEMPLIFY BROAD PATTERNS OF POLITICAL, HISTORY. THAT IS CURRENTLY OCCURRING. WE'VE HEARD FROM COUNCIL MEMBERS WHO HAVE BEEN HERE MUCH LONGER THAN ME AT
DECADE AND EVEN BEFORE. IT MAKES ME THINK ABOUT THE DESIGNATION OF MILWAUKEE AVENUE. A TRUE WORKING CLASS HISTORY OF HOUSING THAT WAS BUILT FOR IMMIGRANTS THAT CAME HERE THAT WERE ARTISANS THAT MADE SHOES, THAT WORKED ON THE RAIL YARDS, AND IF
NEIGHBORS DID NOT COME TOGETHER AND FIGHT FOR THAT PRESERVATION OF THAT HOUSING AFTER IT WAS DILAPIDATED FOR SOME TIME, WE WOULD NOT HAVE IT. YOU CAN GO OVER AND READ THAT PLAQUE AND
LEARN ABOUT IT. NOW IT'S HELD UP AS THIS PLACE YOU HAVE TO CHECK OUT WHEN YOU'RE IN MINNEAPOLIS. THERE ARE VERY FEW PLACES THAT THIS IS WORKING CLASS HISTORY. I COULD PROBABLY THINK OF TWO JUST OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD. IT'S
MILWAUKEE, AND IT'S IN THE NORTH LOOP, THE BRICKS. WE THINK ABOUT THE TEAMSTER STRIKES AND THE HARD FELT BATTLE THAT THE WORKERS HAD. THE BLOOD THAT WAS SPILT THERE. SO WHEN I HEAR FROM THE COMMUTY AND I READ THE PUBLIC COMMENT AND I LISTEN TO
THE TESTIMONY FROM THE HPC, IT'S NOT ABOUT OKAY, THIS IS GOING TO GUARANTEE ALL OF THIS MAINTENANCE AND CHANGES BECAUSE THEY'VE BEEN ASKING FOR THAT FOR A WHILE AND THAT HASN'T HAPPENED WITH OR WITHOUT MAINTENANCE. AND I HOPE IT HAPPENS. IT SEEMS LIKE
THERE'S A PATH. IT'S ABOUT WORKING CLASS PEOPLE ACROSS ETHNICITIES, NATIONALITIES, AND STORIES. RIGHT. AND THAT I THINK IS WORTH WHILE FOR HISTORIC PRESERVATION, AND THAT'S WHY I
THINK THERE WAS A 7-1 VOTE AT HPC. IT WASN'T EVEN CLOSE. AND SHOULD MPHA WANT TO REDEVELOP THIS AREA, WANT TO MAKE IT BIGGER AND BETTER, AND REALLY DO THE WORK OF WHAT THEY WANT TO
SHARE WHICH IS HELP GLENDALE RESIDENTS DEFINE THEIR FUTURE, THERE'S A PROCESS IN PLACE FOR THAT. YEAH, IT'S A COUPLEF STEPS. BUT MAYBE IT WOULD BE MORE ITERATIVE AND INCLUSIVE OF THE COMMUNITY. AND SHOULD THEY
NOT LIKE WHAT COMES FROM THE HPC, WE'LL BE RIGHT HERE. TALK ABOUT INCREASING HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES, SAFETY, HEALTH, LIVEABILITY, ESPECIALLY FOR WORKING CLASS PEOPLES, WHERE I THINK THAT WOULD BE A PRETTY
GOOD SHOT OF THINGS MOVING FORWARD. WE JUST HAD AN ITEM ABOUT REZONING THAT WENT THROUGH TH PLANNING COMMISSION, NOW BUSINESS, HOUSING AND ZONING. NOW WE HAVE TO TAKE IT TO THE
MET COUNCIL. THERE ARE STEPS AND IT'S NOT IMPOSSIBLE AND IT'S ITERATIVE, AND COMMUNITY IS PUTTING THEIR HANDS ON IT. IN THIS MOMENT, I THINK WE'RE SETTING UP FOR A PROCESS SHOULD THERE BE REDEVELOPMT, SHOULD THERE BE IMPROVEMENTS. IT WOULD JUST REQUIRE MORE OF COMMUNITY
WEIGHING IN, WHICH I THINK IS THE EXACT MISSION THAT MPHA IS COMMUNICATING, COMMUNITY MEMBERS IN GLENDALE AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS UP HERE. SO FOR THOSE REASONS, I WILL BE SUPPORTING T >> COUNCIL MEMBER RAINVILLE.
>> THANK YOU. SO THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF QUESTIONS RAISED HERE. I SEE THAT WE HAVE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR. PERHAPS YOU CAN SPEAK TO CLARIFY. >> I THINK THAT'S OUT OF ORDER. UNLESS WE WANT TO VOTE TO
SUSPEND THE RULES AND ALLOW FOR COMMUNITY TO SPEAK AS WELL. I THINK THAT WOULD BE OUT OF ORDER. >> I JUST WANT TO MENTION THE APPLICANT IS NOT HERE. WITH THAT, IS THERE ANYMORE YOU WANT TO ADD, COUNCIL MEMBER RAINVILLE. >> THANK YOU FOR TELLING ME WHAT
THE TRUTH IS. >> THANK YOU. >> THE RULES. >> NO. TRUTH. JUST MY LAST COMMENT HERE BEFORE I GIVE IT TO COUNCIL MEMBER ELLISON IS THAT I THINK COUNCIL MBER ELLISON PUT IT VERY WELL THAT WE HAVE TWO ARGUMENTS HERE. WE HAVE BOTH
FINDING FROM THE STAFF, WHICH IS LEGITIMATE. AND ALSO WE HAVE FINDING FROM THE HERITAGE PRESERVATION NOT JUST ONE BUT TWO TIMES WHICH IS ALSO A FACT. AND ALSO LEGITIMATE. AND CONSIDERING THAT I'M ACTUALLY
MORE CONCERNED AND PEOPLE THAT IT WILL AFFECT. WE HAVE RESIDENTS HERE WHO NOT JUST COME HERE BUT CAME BACK TO BACK TO THE CITY HALL. THE DEMOGRAPHIC
THAT LIVE THERE, MAJORITY ARE IMMIGRANT. EAST AFRICAN IMMIGRANT. AS I CONTINUE TO HAVE CONVERSATION WITH THEM, THEY ARE AFRAID OF THOSE CHANGE. THEY WANT TO BE ABLE TOO KEEP WHAT THEY HAVE AND INTO THE UNKNOWN
OF THE MPHA, THEIR PLAN ON THAT. AND I THINK FOR ME, I'M LOOKING AT THAT FACT, ALSO, AND WHILE RESIDENTS ARE HERE AND HAVE COME
AND SPOKE. THEY ARE THE ONES WHO HAVE BEEN ADVOCATING AND THAT CONTINUE TO TALK ABOUT HOW THEY WANT THIS PRESERVATION. LET ME JUST SAY THIS, SOMEONE WHO GREW UP IN PROJECT BASED HOUSING,
IT'S SIMILAR TO WHERE I GREW UP IN EAST SAINT PAUL WHERE YOU HAVE EARLY '90s TYPE HOUSING WHERE THERE'S MORE SPACUS. KIDS PLAYING, FAMILY OUTSIDE. YOUR KIDS -- ALLOWING YOUR KIDS TO GO ACROSS, YOU KNOW, A BLOCK
FROM THAT AREA. IT'S THAT UNIQUENESS IT BRINGS. AS I LOOK AT THE OTHER PUBLIC HOUSING IN OUR CITY, MOST OF IT IS HIGH RISE BUILDINGS. MOST PEOPLE COULD BE ISOLATED AND
THERE'S SOME CHALLENGES OF BEING VERY DENSE HIGH RISE 24, 30-STORY BUILDINGS. THERE'S THAT CHALLENGE. BUT ALSO WE HAVE THIS UNIQUENESS. I THINK IT KIND OF
MAKES SENSE FOR US TO KEEP SMALL PORTION OF MPHA PUBLIC HOUSING FOR THIS KIND OF SETTING. AND I WOULD ASK COUNCIL MEMBER ELLISON IF HE'S MAYBE CONSIDER ABLE TO CHANGE HIS MOTION A FORWARD
THIS WITHOUT RECOMMENDATION SO WE'RE ABLE T GET MORE OTHER COUNCIL MEMBERS CAN HAVE THEIR INPUT ON THIS. >> ABSOLUTELY. IT LOOKS LIKE MY ORIGINAL MOTION WOULDN'T PREVAIL ON A COUNCIL TODAY. I WOULD LIKE TO DISPENSE WITH THIS ITEM. I WOULD SAY COUNCIL MEMBER
RAINVILLE, YOU'RE WELCOME TO HOP BACK IN EUE. I WASN'T SAYING YOUR DESIRE TO HAVE MPHA COME AND SPEAK, I WAS SAYING THAT -- THE COMMITTEE MIGHT THINK
DIFFERENTLY. SO JUST WANTED TO MAKE THAT CLEAR THAT YOU ARE -- YOU DO HA RECOURSE HERE. THE OTHER THING ISHAT I WILL WITHDRAW MY MOTION TO APPROVE, NOT BECAUSE I DON'T SUPPORT THE DESIGNATION BUT I DON'T THINK
THAT MOTION WOULDPREVAIL. I WOULD LIKE TO DISPENSE WITH THIS ITEM AND TAKE IT TO FULL COUNCIL. I'M GOING TO TAKE MY MOTION DOWN AND MAKE THE MOTION TO MOVE WITHOUT RECOMMENDATION. >> ALL RIGHT. CITY ATTORNEY, DO
YOU WT TO ADD ANYTHING? >> NO, CHAIR OSMAN. I WAS JUST GOING TO OFFER SOME SUGGESTIONS ON HOW TO WORD THAT MOTION. BUT SINCE IT'S BEEN WITHDRAWN, THAT CAN WAIT FOR COUNCIL. >> BEAUTIFUL. THANK YOU SO MUCH. SEEING NO FURTHER DISCUSSION,
THIS ITEM HAS BEEN MOVED WITHOUT RECOMMENDATION. I WILL ASK CLERK TO CALL THE ROLL ON THAT. >> COUNCIL MEMBER RAINVILLE. >> AYE. >> CASHMAN. >> AYE.
>> JENKINS. >> NAY. >> CHOWDHURY. >> AYE. >> VICE CHAIR ELLISON. >> AYE. >> CHAIR OSMAN. >> AYE. >> THERE ARE FIVE AYES AND ONE NAY. >> ALL RIGHT. THAT MOTION CARRIES. WITH THAT, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR RESIDENTS OF GLENDALE
FOR COMING THROUGH FOR MPHA, FOR STAFF, FOR ALL THE MEMBERS. SEEING NO FURTHER BUSINESS BEFORE US, WITH NO OBJECTION, I'LL DECLARE THIS MEETING
ADJOURNED. THANK Y.
