June 18, 2018, Monday - Mississippi Gorge Regional Park Master Plan CAC Meeting #3

Time: 5:30-7:30 pm

Location: Minneapolis Park and Rec Board, 2117 West River Road
 
Mississippi Gorge Regional Park Master Plan CAC Meeting #3

The next Community Advisory Committee (CAC) meeting is scheduled Monday, June 18, 2018, 5:30-7:30 pm at Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board (MPRB) Headquarters, 2117 West River Road.

This project will create a new long-term plan for Mississippi Gorge Regional Park, which hosts about 3.7 million visitors annually, making it the third most-visited park in Minnesota. The park's boundaries cover parkland on both sides of the Mississippi River from Bridge 9 (Dinkytown Greenway bridge) in the north to the St. Paul border (east side of the river) and Minnehaha Regional Park (west side) in the south.

The first two CAC meetings were dedicated to to familiarizing the group with the project and assigning priorities to rehabilitation projects at Bohemian Flats and Annie Young Meadow. The focus of the group will now move toward visioning the future of the entire park and learning community needs and goals for recreation in one of the most important natural spaces in the city.
