This development is getting bigger, and decisions are being made with no transparency. The City must hold open meetings on a development that will impact the neighborhood.

Seems that you can do anything any more without regard to the people. Greed and $ seem to be taking precedence.

Follow the zoning ordinances. They are there for a reason. Why does this developer want to put so many units on this small property? Someone in Mpls city government needs to do their job.

Another example of our council members failing to help it's constituents. Your first priority is to fix the Affordable housing and help those in the park encampments find shelter .

This project is a danger to the safety of the neighborhood. Too many new cars next to a child play area. It is inconsistent with the neighborhood feel. Query whether any of the city council members would accept this 18 unit building on their block?

Too big for neighborhood. Not enough parking on street already and busy area already with park and school nearby

This 4 story unit will stand out like a sore thumb. It will cause property values and property taxes to go down for homes in the area. In the long run less money for the City of Minneapolis. In addition Grand Ave is a Snow Emergency Route. With parking already at a premium this is going to cause additional parking/towing/plowing problems. It's going to dominate the neighborhood and take away from the neighborhood.

The burden of proof is with the city council. The onus should not be on the citizens to prove there are major changes to the design.

Changes should not be allowed, especially ones done behind closed doors. Our city is being tested in so many ways right now, and the City Council appears to be following its own agenda, not listening to the people or following laws. Shame on you for allowing destruction of neighborhoods.

18 units is way too many. And getting them approved behind closed doors without input from the neighborhood? NOT okay. I’m also guessing that this isn’t affordable housing, so it won’t help our current issue of homeless living in parks. I’m really disappointed in this council.

Our city leaders and representatives must follow the law and not change approved plans behind closed doors.

We need our city representatives to involve the neighborhood before these decisions are made.

I am concerned that a major change to the developer’s plan was approved behind closed doors without neighborhood input.

I am requesting a full explanation as to how the City approved the increase from 10 to 18 units behind closed doors. This is a major change and will greatly impact the already crowded area. Parking and traffic are at a peak, and this change will certainly overwhelm the available resources. 10 additional units is to much for this beautiful neighborhood, but 18 is just purely ridiculous. Why not make it 26 or 34 or more? Because we have rules to abide by and processes to follow. Approving this change without public input is carelessly negligent. Please put a stop to this major change in plans.

Just walked by the site again and I was saddened by the enormity of this approved building. This is a family neighborhood of homes and duplexes and four plexus. An 18 unit building has no place here. I believe the city council knows this too but only acts behind closed doors. Shame on the council for approving this building.
