Open House for North Mississippi Regional Park is postponed indefinitely
In light of recent current events, the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board (MPRB) is postponing the upcoming Open House for North Mississippi Regional Park, which was previously scheduled for Tuesday, January 20.
We will reschedule it for a later date to be determined. The survey will remain open indefinitely while we determine next steps.
Share Your Feedback
Take a look at design options for the park, share what you like and don’t like about each one. You don’t have to “choose” one design option over the others. We need your input!
You can also provide feedback via survey.
About the Project
The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board (MPRB) is working on a plan to guide improvements and stewardship at North Mississippi Regional Park for the next 20+ years.
MPRB will host an open house to review draft design concepts. The concepts focus on ecology, access and programming in the park. Attendees will view the design, meet project staff, ask questions and share feedback. Anyone can attend.
Good to Know
The North Mississippi Regional Park Plan is being developed through a collaboration between the project team, advisory committees, community groups and park users. This includes a Community Advisory Committee (CAC), made up of people who are participating in regularly scheduled meetings to collectively make recommendations about the plan’s content.
If you have any questions or comments, please don’t hesitate to contact sali@minneapolisparks.org.

Long-Term Park Plans
The MPRB uses long-term park plans (previously called master plans) to guide care, programming and development at all its parks and trails. Park plans accomplish the following:
- Set a vision to guide long-term development and improvements to a park or group of parks
- Guide stewardship and help ensure that park features and amenities reflect the needs of the communities they serve
- Help ensure long-term financial and ecological sustainability
- Involve extensive engagement with individual and group stakeholders, other community partners and governmental entities
- Subject to review and comment by the public, as well as public hearings and approval by the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board of Commissioners
