- The Committee authorized a transfer of properties (2931 and 2937 Bloomington Ave) to the Red Lake Band of Chippewa Indians, which Council Member Chavez called a form of “decolonization.”
- Approved the nomination of Enrique Velázquez to the appointed position of Director of Regulatory Services.
- Approved granting authority to Hennepin County Housing and Redevelopment Authority to undertake the Labor Retreat housing project (124 4th St SE) through $10 million revenue bond issuance.
- Approved variance appeal for a Marshall St property owner looking to build a “cluster development” of three units. The owner has recently entered a MOU with the Park Board, which stipulates that he will be able to live there for the rest of his life, but eventually the park board will acquire the property, in alignment with the 2040 plan.
