City Attorney Amy Shutt described the proceeding as a statutorily mandated process prompted by an outstanding tax liability by the business. Shutt explained the typical process for such revocation hearings: “This is a statutorily mandated, process for a revocation hearing due to an outstanding tax liability by the business.” The appellant did not appear at the committee hearing and no public testimony was offered.

Council Member Cashman moved to forward the item without recommendation to full council to allow the business time to complete required paperwork and address the outstanding liability; the city attorney confirmed that this approach provides an opportunity for the business to resolve matters before any final revocation action. The committee approved the motion by voice vote: “The ayes have it and the motion carries.” The committee record notes the underlying cause as outstanding taxes to the state and that the revocation process at the local level is bound by state statute.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","April 8, 2025 Business, Housing & Zoning Committee","oneSentenceSummary","A statutorily mandated revocation process for Duet Coffee & Wine (114777 Lake Street West) was opened and, with no appellant present, the committee voted to forward the matter without recommendation to full council to allow the business time to address outstanding taxes.","taxTitle","Minneapolis City, Hennepin County, Minnesota","taxId",3498,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6082208,"Committee advances amended sidewalk cart and street vending ordinance after extensive public comment",2935,1269000,4204000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2939060-9b6ed0b281fd90699aae4ba90436dfa0&start=1269&end=4204","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2939060-9b6ed0b281fd90699aae4ba90436dfa0/thumbnail_1269000.jpg","/articles/6082208/Minneapolis-City/Hennepin-County/Minnesota/Committee-advances-amended-sidewalk-cart-and-street-vending-ordinance-after-extensive-public-comment","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6082208-77f7c38bd343a9653f3fbe19940009af/orig.mp4?Expires=1776027644&Signature=GSFO2XER7n1ImKVerHtM6saHbJ-ZPy7XoAvJjCkKwIVdLlFfA44Qa3qY-a~tR9RIXjgUyELRHxMJO26TQFP0aooPHFe-O~7xd0ouWYNUNDf1apfkec2O1f5NcnFG7MbAjMyRU-UQqy6~ugMO7crOpG6tHb193mhPGBBbKRn-5BxAcH60z8hGAngF6gTBbdsBOtC0eFvkx82aCzjQ4QTnT~YqwnI3Zv6ZyGq5oK5ryBsTlcT23DsIE8PGzgU6XDh~N8bFG-74dbdQEzXBFITcjDSJqFsFmz3wLUS2YZ5fEbIZlaWUFLziV~lvsWHvpw3ABMnSUmi1cCi9hmq0KuAEYw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Business, Housing and Zoning Committee on April 8 voted to amend and advance a substantially revised sidewalk cart and street vending ordinance to the full council.

Amy Lingo, manager for Business Licensing, presented changes developed with the Minneapolis Health Department and other city staff. Key proposals include changing from the existing “1 license, 1 cart, 1 location” model to “1 license, 1 cart, up to 3 approved locations,” allowing vendors more flexibility while keeping fixed approved sites. Lingo explained the hours alignment with the food truck ordinance: “In an effort to align the sidewalk food cart with food truck ordinance, the hours of operation has recommended to be amended to be 6AM to midnight, unless within 300 feet of a residence. Then the hours would be 7AM to 10PM.”

Staff proposed expanding approvable vending corridors from the downtown core and select commercial corridors to citywide “goods and services corridors,” which staff said exist across the city and would increase opportunities for vendors in their home neighborhoods. The ordinance would also amend distance buffers: reduce the measurement for Park and Recreation property from 500 feet from a Park Board building to 200 feet from the property line, and keep a 500-foot buffer from K–12 schools. Lingo said Business Licensing and Public Works will coordinate site-plan review to ensure ADA access and separation from permanent sidewalk fixtures; the Health Department would retain food-safety oversight.

The public hearing drew extensive testimony from vendors and community supporters. Multiple speakers described vending as a pathway to economic stability and cultural expression. Vendor Erica Luna told the committee in Spanish that passing the ordinance would help her regain steady work after a layoff: “I would like you to consider passing this license law for street vendors. We will equip ourselves with resources and foundations to have a stable business for our clients, community, family,” and added she and others were “willing to work under the ordinance and continue to maintain food safety.” Longtime vendor Blaine M. supported the ordinance while raising operational concerns such as umbrella size and the need to prevent being displaced by temporary events. A downtown restaurant owner, Ryan Brown, urged guardrails to avoid vendors operating directly in front of existing businesses without coordination, citing past trash and crowding issues.

The committee first approved a motion to amend language to update accessibility terminology across codes—changing “handicap loading zone” to “accessible transfer zone” and “handicap” to “person with disability”—a change staff said was coordinated with Neighborhood and Community Relations and Race, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging departments. After discussion the committee voted to forward the amended ordinance to the full council for final action. The chair and co-authors urged continued outreach and supports for vendors to help them comply and succeed if the ordinance is adopted.","The committee amended and approved a new sidewalk cart and street vending ordinance to expand approvable locations citywide, allow one license to cover one cart at up to three approved locations, adjust hours and buffers, and add accessibility language; item moves to full council for final vote.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6082213,"Committee authorizes sale of 17,600 sq ft at 1027 Essex Street SE to SV Plaza LLC for $1.6 million",203,1038000,1241000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2939060-9b6ed0b281fd90699aae4ba90436dfa0&start=1038&end=1241","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2939060-9b6ed0b281fd90699aae4ba90436dfa0/thumbnail_1038000.jpg","/articles/6082213/Minneapolis-City/Hennepin-County/Minnesota/Committee-authorizes-sale-of-17600-sq-ft-at-1027-Essex-Street-SE-to-SV-Plaza-LLC-for-16-million","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6082213-60bf48cfa1564aee994b26220dc61441/orig.mp4?Expires=1776027644&Signature=nBuvqfisdVxAZvV8F5UfzIpQShw1etDQ~Xy2Yt2SlHY6bfwaW6BXPKuGtK8lDmShnjBBv-xWPFzGLtvd~izdeGpm6AsANzPVynFpfviguM8UIPjELZOeAAhJFbkDvpMikS1f1wIMLZTDkk978UqWWLuP5bzIkgIRHImmbtVdWLMwlB3XVeeh0GsWbbPTEzucWpGta1K8IUSsHeXnTdMtZlqF1W1E-8srMjRIs2rMo~glkE6v48HqDeCg9LwcHyxNZHm3fc51z0CKSvk5nZgA-X0w-R52JDzebcJvdaJslA4CShKm7jd0Zfjz96DCUdVOfKC7VrTxbmhzyZ1SVINWNg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Business, Housing and Zoning Committee on April 8 authorized the sale of approximately 17,600 square feet of excess city property at 1027 Essex Street Southeast to SV Plaza LLC, an entity associated with the University of Minnesota Foundation Real Estate Advisors (UMFREA), for $1,600,000.

Emily Stern of the Community Planning and Economic Development (CPED) Business Development team said the parcel is a remnant of the former Huron Boulevard alignment, left after Huron was relocated during construction of Huntington Bank Stadium in February 2009. Stern said the parcel contains major sewer lines and is planned to function primarily as public open space as part of a three-block, multi-phase mixed-use redevelopment called The Mix. She said the first phase will focus on science and innovation, total about 850,000 square feet for the first building and the broader project could reach about 3,000,000 square feet over 10–20 years.

Stern described the negotiated sale price as a compromise between city and buyer appraisals and said proceeds, minus selling expenses, will be deposited into the Public Works Permanent Improvement Fund. The committee opened and closed the public hearing with no speakers, then moved and approved the sale by voice vote: “The ayes have it and the motion carries.” Stern said the project anticipates working through city development review and entitlements during the remainder of the year with ground-breaking targeted for the first half of 2026.","The committee approved selling roughly 17,600 square feet of excess right-of-way at 1027 Essex Street SE to SV Plaza LLC (University of Minnesota Foundation Real Estate Advisors) for $1,600,000 to support a multi-phase mixed-use development called The Mix.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6082218,"Committee approves local registration ordinance for state-licensed cannabis and hemp retailers",445,513000,958000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2939060-9b6ed0b281fd90699aae4ba90436dfa0&start=513&end=958","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2939060-9b6ed0b281fd90699aae4ba90436dfa0/thumbnail_513000.jpg","/articles/6082218/Minneapolis-City/Hennepin-County/Minnesota/Committee-approves-local-registration-ordinance-for-state-licensed-cannabis-and-hemp-retailers","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6082218-c35554a150eb51a8293dafa8299d37d1/orig.mp4?Expires=1776027644&Signature=fAzTWJsqnQgHId9q98~ZACDikA91ZtKqi~rxz5ufL8s4gpRBtptzSPB7JoWaWhAlmMT9~FgzVKpBjUojSHUiti93sKP6lZURb3NLwd7xqgAFyCQD~WiSUTy7SHB5kJiVKukfGOUewYWRUi1O5y~75~R401JS10vVqLTO01mbYZdS-EWvTllr-LKc8k9QBs-tDI7ML-AE8Zp1NVk3pp-e5Rgdlw5pdwJ7pOg2UQvuxGkyu5HM7gmRqoOBLekxjxibP63dODU0vcmyHNaJbDfA3EOEzOCZdesjlyfATU8H8l0tf1xN~8-fDnmDNOC-usuCi245wWBc1CpcZSz18GBrpQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Business, Housing and Zoning Committee on April 8 approved an ordinance establishing local registration for selected state-licensed cannabis and hemp retailers under the city's code (Title 13, Chapter 355).

Amy Lingo, manager for Business Licensing, said the ordinance implements the state’s direction that certain cannabis business types be registered by local authorities and that Minneapolis elected to keep registration at the city level rather than delegating to Hennepin County. Lingo summarized the covered business types and the compliance program: “The business types that will be registered by the city of Minneapolis are as follows, cannabis micro business with retail operations endorsement, cannabis meso business with retail operations endorsement, cannabis retailers, medical cannabis retailers, medical cannabis combination businesses, and lower potency hemp edible retailers.”

Lingo told the committee, quoting the transcript, “Minnesota statute 3 42 22 requires certain cannabis business types to be registered by the local authority.” She also explained that registration fees will be set to the maximum amounts allowed by state statute and that the city will implement annual age compliance checks similar to youth alcohol and tobacco compliance programs: “They'll look very similar to the youth alcohol compliance checks and the youth tobacco compliance checks … yearly each establishment is checked to make sure that they are not selling to underage buyers.”

Council members asked about the rationale for city-level registration and fee structure. Lingo said Minneapolis chose city registration because it is the largest city in Hennepin County and wished to maintain local control over time, place and manner and over age-compliance verification. The committee opened and closed the public hearing with no speakers and voted to approve the ordinance; the chair announced, “The ayes have it and the motion carries.”

The ordinance directs Business Licensing and CPED to implement the local registration program once the state begins issuing approvals; Lingo said the Office of Cannabis Management is preparing to start issuing licenses toward the end of the month and the city will be ready to register businesses once the state sends approvals.","The committee passed a local registration ordinance to register selected state-licensed cannabis and hemp retailers in Minneapolis, set to use state-authorized maximum fees and an annual age-compliance check program.",{"_33":112,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":113,"_41":114,"_43":115,"_45":116,"_47":117,"_49":118,"_51":119,"_53":120,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":121,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":122,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6082223,"Committee approves Dexter’s permanent 50-seat expansion at 3717 Fiftieth Street West",182,329000,511000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2939060-9b6ed0b281fd90699aae4ba90436dfa0&start=329&end=511","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2939060-9b6ed0b281fd90699aae4ba90436dfa0/thumbnail_329000.jpg","/articles/6082223/Minneapolis-City/Hennepin-County/Minnesota/Committee-approves-Dexters-permanent-50-seat-expansion-at-3717-Fiftieth-Street-West","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6082223-2fb538922128545b6ee05cf5f7108fe3/orig.mp4?Expires=1776027644&Signature=KBZo51WF9PCnWecS1B0wekFYrC9E8MJHT2YAkMmtK3MLxrIiFViEjApkHuD7zGipQJUcACIuBozlomr6ibKqC-gIdaIc-t-5bMVodqSevjQP2yf9NI-Q3fpqJ4Zs9qdbN3xD3jPWU3fuhjOp7CoYgnR60n8HjWDlwIHXbaasBxNSmYZdCnDmch6-yPKWguh8h~sHzzOJFQ0fxbgi8Ood5pP0ClOCYDI65jVQQJTq7F8gaqC78m7afrUx9uAIs59jhvTM70cmaniiGjhEUfL75FMssAWR-h18CMNBSPNXAGeQ8Xa1nT3WQ4jRd3AdsMu59IhUyoFxcY~9cVy~pmXYhw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Business, Housing and Zoning Committee on April 8 approved a permanent expansion of premises for Dexter’s, owned by DLI Group LLC, to add 50 seats at 3717 Fiftieth Street West in Ward 13.

City licensing staff told the committee Dexter’s is taking over the adjacent soda-roll space to expand its kitchen and outdoor patio and will add planter boxes for noise mitigation. Craig Eliason, district supervisor with Licenses and Consumer Services, said public notices were sent within 300 feet and to the Fulton Neighborhood Association; he reported, “We have not received any responses from the community. There are no issues concerning the business or issuance of this license. The licenses and consumer services division recommends approval of the permanent expansion of premises.”

Owner representative Joe Ross told the committee the expansion would add the 50-seat patio in addition to the existing patio and described minor site work: “They're going to add planter boxes for some noise mitigation. But everything else is under the regular operations that we're running right now.” The committee opened and closed the public hearing with no other speakers and voted to approve the item.

The committee recorded the motion and approved the item by voice vote; no roll-call vote or mover/second was named in the committee record. The chair announced, “The ayes have it, and the motion carries.”

This action clears the committee step; the licensing division will complete the administrative processing required to issue the permanent expansion of premises and associated license updates.","The Business, Housing and Zoning Committee approved a permanent expansion of premises for Dexter’s (DLI Group LLC) to add 50 seats, with adjusted exterior hours agreed with the Fulton Neighborhood Association.","actionData","errors"]
