There has been a good deal of criticism of the Park Board on this list, and it's no secret that I haven't always seen eye to eye with them, either. But I just finished signing actions from the Board's last meeting and it included several very good pieces of news. Among them are the Park Board is moving ahead with skate parks at Creek View and Armatage Parks; keeping open beaches at Calhoun, Harriet and Cedar Lake and one that I will use a lot: approve an agreement with Minneapolis Off-road Cycling Advocates for an off road cycling demonstration project at Wirth Park. That last one is the result of the board working with off road advocates to develop a way for responsible riders to have a legal path that protects the environment. Good to see all this good news!
