Draft Southwest Parks Master Plan Released
- Details
- Published: 14 February 2020 14 February 2020
45 Day Public Comment Period open through April 5.
Called the Southwest Parks Plan for short, the draft plan contains updated park designs that will guide development of all Southwest Minneapolis neighborhood park properties over the next 20+ years.
The design for Kenny Park was approached not only as an individual neighborhood site, but also as one part of a four-park collection in the far southwest portion of the service area which has a strong and interconnected focus on athletics, primarily field and diamond sports. Kenny will be designated as a “field sports focused park” with the removal of diamonds and the installation of a premier artificial turf field, striped for field sports only. This will balance nearby Armatage Park which is designated a “diamond sports focused park”.

The City of Minneapolis CPED, in partnership with Grounded Solutions Network, is hosting three opportunities for broader community and public input around Community Informed Housing Policy, as detailed in the attached flyer.
The City is deliberately involving community in the development of policy and programs that produce affordable and accessible housing and eliminate disparities. The focus of this meeting will be a review and recommendation for permanent affordable homeownership models and alignment of the City’s homebuyer product offerings with market data and the Minneapolis 2040 Comprehensive Plan.
