Crown Hydro - Lack of Support

This project lacks the support of:

- The National Park Service

- The National Trust for Historic Preservation

- The Minnesota Historical Society

- The Land Use Committee of the Sierra Club

- The State Historic Preservation Office

- The Preservation Alliance of Minnesota

- The Minneapolis Park Board

- The Minneapolis City Council

- State Legislators representing Minneapolis

IMPORTANT ALERT - PLEASE ATTEND THE MINNEAPOLIS PARK BOARD MEETING TO VOICE YOUR OPINION ON THE PROPOSED CROWN HYDRO PROJECT:

Wednesday, May 4

5:00 P.M. REGULAR BOARD MEETING. The meeting will be held in the boardroom at Park Board headquarters, 2117 West River Road, just north of Broadway Pizza.

5:30 P.M. OPEN TIME. Speakers need to sign up before 3:00 p.m. the day of the meeting.

MORE DETAILS TO FOLLOW.

“It is simply outrageous that the Legislature would even attempt to override the decisions of local government, in this case the Park Board, and compel both the sale of public land and the planning approvals required for a private developer for their private development”
- City Council Member Lisa Goodman (7th Ward)
