Steve Brandt is correct. Just to add: A 17-bedroom, four-unit rental Holman replacement is proposed for an 80 foot by 125 foot lot, with no basements, no garages and just four or five off-street parking spaces. I believe there is no overnight parking allowed on this portion of Stinson (all or at least part of the year), so off-street parking will be at a premium, as the side street is the "short" direction of the block and across from a local business. This lot size equals two minimum residential lots typical in this neighborhood that might normally contain 5 or six bedrooms total between the two lots/houses. Consequently, most of the 150 or so people who attended a meeting last week on this proposal and spoke up were not too enthused about it or the process. CM Ostrow got an earful. Discussions will continue in some manner, as the Minneapolis Urban League is asking for input from a neighborhood task force.
Gayle Bonneville Waite Park/Northeast Minneapolis -- yes, it's really in Minneapolis. REMINDERS: 1. Think a member has violated the rules?
