This summer the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board (MPRB) launched the Minnehaha Parkway Regional Trail Master Plan! This new project will set a vision and priorities for future park improvements and management along the trail for the next 20-30 years.
The planning process will be guided by a Community Advisory Committee (CAC) that has been appointed by various neighborhood organizations and elected officials. Trail users are encouraged to attend two upcoming CAC events in August:
