Interim police chief says he moved his family out of Minneapolis after 25 years to get his children into the Wayzata school district. I hope the replies to this post can combine our love for ugly police politics with our love for ugly school politics.

Josh Martin is live at Warehouse District Live. He filed this report: "The last time a city funded event failed this hard there were like five Star Tribune stories, a department head got fired, and there was an investigation by the City Auditor’s Office." Oh! Ohh! Oh my!

Yesterday evening, members of the public entered the Cedar Lake encroachment zone, starting from south beach. Our leader was 80 yr old Jake, who's watched too many park board meetings for his own good. He let us know how many feet of public land was available in each "backyard."

Cornhole concerns at the zoning committee: "The cornhole game leads to a continuous thunking noise as the beanbag hits the target. When one goes in the hole there's a loud cry of success."

First time riding the E Line to the Dinkytown end of the route today. Such a great transit experience. Even if you're not a transit person, give it a try. 25 minutes from Uptown to Dinkytown. Buses come so frequently that you don't have to check a schedule.

This is a nice county project for Lake St in Uptown (even if it stops a block short of connecting to the city's new bike route on Hennepin), but it makes me wonder why we have to wait a decade or more for the city to bring curb protection to 26th and 28th streets.

The city telling a homeless camp that sleeping outside in the winter isn't safe, right before depriving them of the shelter they've made for themselves, is a real "stop hitting yourself" moment.
