Re: [Mpls] HiltonFund/NRP

It's my understanding that the reason MCDA had to be formally dismantled at 
the legislative level, and CPED then created in its stead, was so the city 
would have direct access to Common Project funds in addition to the Hilton 
money. The Hilton funds have been brought up for years as some sort of 
fix-all for various projects of interest...sure hope it's gaining good 
interest...heh, heh.

After reading this mornings article in the Strib, I'm wondering if the City 
is successful in raiding the Hilton Hotel Funds for the MCDA,will the MCDA 
no longer take the $2.1 million a year they are getting to administer the 
Common Project? Maybe in the spirit of generosity and cooperation with the 
neighborhoods the MCDA will return that money to NRP to be used for 
neighborhood programs.
