At its May 12 meeting the Minneapolis Housing & Zoning Committee approved a slate of routine items on the consent agenda (items 5–15), including liquor licenses and renewals, a gambling license, contracts for arts and tenant resources, a budget resolution for MacPhail Center for Music and a rezoning and public hearing scheduling.
The committee also approved, after public hearing and staff presentation, a liquor‑license upgrade for Cafe Harmony (501 1st Avenue Northeast) to an on‑sale liquor license with limited entertainment and Sunday sales; Licenses and Consumer Services reported no neighborhood objections or police calls and recommended approval. Council member Rainville moved approval.
Indeed Brewing Company received approval to permanently expand its premises to add an outdoor patio and 96 additional seats at 711 15th Avenue Northeast. Licenses staff reported proper notice to nearby neighborhood organizations and no community objections.
All votes were taken by voice vote; motions carried as announced by the chair. Several council members noted recusal on specific consent items where applicable and asked for follow‑up where projects will affect neighborhoods.
