Public hearing will begin at 6:30 pm during regular Board of Commissioners meeting
The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board (MPRB) will hold a public hearing on the Hiawatha Golf Course Property Master Plan on Wednesday, Feb. 17 at 6:30 pm. Board meetings are being held virtually during the pandemic, see below for options to participate in the public hearing.
The Hiawatha Golf Course Area Master Plan is a written and graphic document intended to guide capital improvements in the area over the next 20-30 years. The master plan document is a direct reflection of the input provided by the appointed Community Advisory Committee (CAC), which met 7 times between March 2018 and July 2019, and extensive additional community engagement. The plan will be posted to the Hiawatha Golf Course Master Plan project page on Friday, Feb. 12.
How to submit public hearing comments
During the pandemic, to minimize the risk of exposure to or potential spread of COVID-19, the MPRB added options for submitting comments for public meetings and hearings, authorized under Minn. Stat. Section 13D.02.
