No snow removal on this sidewalk on MPRB property.
Wednesday it was marked off as done but this section was never touched. It’s impassable for anyone with mobility issues. The sidewalk is on the pedestrian priority network
No reply to my request yet and snow event done per park website

In the end we got it installed on the boulevard, which is city property, which somehow made everyone happy? Took months to resolve and hours of staff and volunteer time

Already updated to "critics" instead. Better, although still frames this as all about criticism and not running on his own record.

The 2024 update shows 13-17 years (and that's improved since 2022 because they've funded ADA ramps in resurfacing projects, which don't require curb ramps since it's not a reconstruction). Cost $401 million

I was going to drop by the downtown Target tonight but it closed early so fire responders can do some safety exercises. Now I’m curious how often this happens!

Some neighborhoods have famous lakes or sinkholes. I give you the Everlasting* Spring of Elliot Park
*Day 4 but 311 said it’s a ‘known private leak’ so maybe it will last forever

Didn’t even 311 this sedan today that parked on the sidewalk on Nicollet Mall to dash into, presumably, Chipotle.
They had their flashers on though so I’m sure it’s fine. 🤷♂️

First time I've had a 311 request for a car in a bike lane end with a citation.
I did tag the TWO cars in this stretch, but the infrastructure on 11th Ave just south of Washington is not intuitive at all for drivers parking.
