Council flags Cleveland Avenue connection as a complex intergovernmental issue for Les Bolstad site
Summary
Council members said a physical connection to Cleveland Avenue would be complicated by University of Minnesota agricultural land on the north side and would require county approval for any curb cut, signaling additional intergovernmental coordination is needed for access planning.
Council members raised the question of vehicular and pedestrian connection between the Les Bolstad site and Cleveland Avenue but noted substantive impediments.
Discussion identified University of Minnesota agricultural land north of the site as a complicating factor and said any curb cut onto Cleveland Avenue would require county involvement and approval, which could affect timing and scope of access changes. Council Member Wassenberg recommended a closer evaluation of physical connections to ensure cohesive walkability and transit access to adjacent neighborhoods.
The exchange left the item identified as requiring intergovernmental coordination and technical review before design or right-of-way changes could be advanced.
