Cahill Update - Workshop Overview and Hennepin Planning Grant Award

Workshop Overview - A community workshop was held for the Cahill District Area Plan on Tuesday, September 13th. The meeting took place at the City's Public Works and Park Maintenance Facility with approximately 25 people in attendance. The consultant team gave a brief presentation on what has been done to date and attendees participated in a number of group exercises to identify what types of activities they would like to see in the district in the future and where those activities should occur. Attendees also held discussions about what future redevelopment should look like in the district and how it should take place. All meeting materials from the workshop can be found under the "Documents" section of this page. Those that were not able to attend the meeting can still share their input by completing the map activity and survey activity found above.

Hennepin Planning Grant Award - The City of Edina has been awarded a $50,000 Hennepin Planning Grant from Hennepin County to expand the scope of the Cahill Area District Plan process. This additional scope will allow the City to go more in depth in analyzing mobility and public realm improvements in the district. This will include identification of challenges and opportunities in making the area more accessible by walking, biking, and transit, as well as ways to improve the public realm to be a more attractive, sustainable, and cohesive space within the district. The full scope of work can be found under "Documents".
