@Jacob_Frey We had the votes for that site during the previous council (so it was not opposed), but the owner backed out hours before the vote due to threats. Prior to that, it was delayed one cycle because CM Gordon wanted time for a community meeting to get input from nearby residents.

Back in late 2020, our first site for rebuilding the 3rd precinct was derailed by the previous Council’s opposition and threats from those opposed to rebuilding the precinct. Now, the site is back on the table. This would be the cheapest and fastest option.

@WentRogue @JChavezMpls @MplsWard11 38th & Hiawatha site is available. Most accessible, centrally located, and the community spaces being promised would get a lot more use.

“We’ve eliminated all the other options” for the 3rd Precinct site, claims Linea Palmisano So…can we know what the other options are, at least? ask @JChavezMpls, @CMAndrewJohnson, and @MplsWard11 Seems reasonable. (No paywall) strib.gift/cqtchm8qx

@maurice_lippy @IlhanMN "unarmed people" includes men

@IlhanMN What about the men that were taken, unprovoked?

I condemn the horrific acts we are seeing unfold today in Israel against children, women, the elderly, and the unarmed people who are being slaughtered and taken hostage by Hamas. Such senseless violence will only repeat the back and forth cycle we've seen, which we cannot allow to continue. We need to call for deescalation and ceasefire. I will keep advocating for peace and justice throughout the Middle East.

@JenniferJenn612 @jasoncomix I tried. Didn't have the votes.

@CMAndrewJohnson @jasoncomix Then put this shit in your backyard, put it in your neighborhood.

@JenniferJenn612 @jasoncomix Who is the big business?

@CMAndrewJohnson @jasoncomix You mean you are comfortable siding with big business & ignoring the needs of the People most impacted by your decisions- going against Indigenous & Native People of East Phillips. You know better than they do what their neighborhood needs. Wtf kinda white supremacy bs!!!

@quick13 The community gets an urban farm with the amended MOU, demolition doesn't pollute the neighborhood, and the amended MOU offsets vehicle emissions and accelerates EV conversion among other benefits. content.govdelivery.com/bulletins/gd/M…

@EMacNally78 @ek_31_ And no, you don't need to bring your kids to work, given that I authored paid safe and sick leave that covers school closures for the more than 100k workers in Minneapolis. So you can stay home to watch your kids and aren't put in impossible situations.

@EMacNally78 @ek_31_ Yeah, a ten month old and three year old sitting through a Council meeting. Got it 🤣🤣🤣

@ek_31_ I asked leadership to move it to Monday, particularly out of respect for all the city staff who were also in a similar childcare situation, but they decided to proceed with the meeting.

@elorraine_ @jasoncomix Shared my thoughts in the latest newsletter: content.govdelivery.com/bulletins/gd/M…

@elorraine_ Schools were closed, so I was at home taking care of my kids.

@OurStreetsMpls @MplsWard12 @CityMinneapolis That is not true. Does your organization even vet information before you post it? Because you were on an email thread with me today but didn't bother to ask what's going on with this item which I already committed to having on the next cycle's agenda.

Councilmember (CM) Andrew Johnson (@MplsWard12) didn't deem municipal sidewalk plowing for @CityMinneapolis as worthy of including on the Public Works and Infrastructure committee meeting agenda, despite support from constituents and fellow CMs. Give him a call: 612-673-2212

@JetVirago @go4abe @dbrauer @GettingGophery Sure thing. I speak to that here: youtu.be/4kV1cKDFAG8&t=…
