LHENA News
Press releases, updates, and history from neighbors in and around the Wedge
The LHENA Community Development Committee recently conducted a neighborhood survey to gather input from Wedge community members regarding the City of Minneapolis' Hennepin Avenue South reconstruction project proposal. Open for public comment between January 12-24, the survey received 76 survey responses and four separate letters from community businesses and organizations; 36% of respondents are business owners. The impact of reconstruction to Hennepin Avenue South inspired diverse opinions about the proposed design and ideas about what will make it successful. A summary of the results and all public comments can be found in the attachments below. Last year, the LHENA Community Development Committee hosted a pop-up engagement event on Hennepin Avenue to gather public feedback. Those comments are also attached below. The City's Hennepin Avenue Reconstruction project team presented plans and conducted community Q&As with our neighborhood on three occasions. The most recent presentation + Q&A on January 12, 2022 can be viewed at the bottom of this post. The following document is LHENA's letter to the City of Minneapolis, sent to Mayor Jacob Frey, Councilmember Lisa Goodman, Councilmember Aisha Chughtai and her staff, and the Hennepin Ave S reconstruction project team.
