 North Minneapolis residents are invited to help create the vision for area neighborhood parks
Kids' activities and refreshments featured at family-friendly workshops in late February and early March
Northside community members have contributed an amazing range of ideas and input on local neighborhood parks over the past eight months. Staff from the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board (MPRB) have been using this information and working with a design team to develop initial concepts for every Minneapolis neighborhood park north of I-394 and west of the Mississippi River. This process is a key part of creating an overall long-term plan known as the North Service Area Master Plan (NSAMP).
The next step is asking people to view and comment on the park design concepts at a series of public workshops. Each concept includes options and locations for a range of amenities and activities; most parks have multiple concepts.

About the North Service Area Master Plan
The North Service
Area Master Plan (NSAMP) will create new, long-term plans for all Minneapolis
neighborhood parks north of I-394 and west of the Mississippi River. NSAMP will
consider how parks are operated, maintained, and improved. It will include plans
for all exterior facilities — athletic fields, playgrounds, trails,
etc. — but not buildings or recreation centers. For more information, visit the project web page.
