Share your thoughts on playground improvements at Kenny Park!

playgroundThe Minneapolis Park & Recreation Board (MPRB) has announced an improvement project at Kenny Park. The project will replace the playground equipment and also update areas directly adjacent to the playground.  The playground is being built generally within the existing play container footprints and will involve new surfacing and play equipment.

MPRB is requesting feedback from the community that will directly inform the design for the new playground. A concept plan for the playground will be based on feedback received from a community survey, engagement that occurred through the Southwest Service Area Master Plan and community-led playground surveys previously completed.

Community members are invited to take an online survey to share their preferences for playground improvements.The survey is open through February 28, 2021.

Design/Community Engagement: spring-summer 2021

Construction: late summer-early fall 2021

Dial backBeginning 11:59 p.m. Friday, Nov. 20 and lasting until Friday, Dec. 18, in-person social gatherings with individuals outside your household are prohibited; bars and restaurants are dialed back to take-out and delivery service only; gyms, fitness studios, entertainment venues, event spaces, and similar establishments will need to close; and adult and youth sports are paused. Retail businesses, salons, and places of worship may continue to operate with proper precautions in place. Childcare remains open. Schools will continue to operate under the Safe Learning Plan, which shifts between in-person, distance, and hybrid learning depending on the local conditions of the virus. All other current restrictions also remain in effect.
 
The pandemic has reached a concerning and dangerous phase throughout much of the Midwest this November. It took 29 weeks to reach 100,000 infections in Minnesota, and just six weeks after that to reach 200,000. Sometime next week, less than three weeks after reaching 200,000 infections, Minnesota will reach 300,000 infections.

Published: 13 November 2020 13 November 2020

public safetyIn June 2020, the Minneapolis City Council pledged to create a new model of community safety. As part of that, they committed to a yearlong process of community engagement. The engagement will ask the Minneapolis community what the new model should look like.

One of the first steps of the engagement process is a survey for members of the Minneapolis community to identify what safety looks like, and to provide ideas for how a new model can be accomplished. Results from this survey will be used to help create recommendations for elected leaders. This will also be used to help guide our next steps in our community engagement. The deadline to complete the survey is Nov. 20.
