Second Ward, Minneapolis

This is a public policy forum that was established in 2006 by Minneapolis Second Ward (Green) City Council Member Cam Gordon and his policy aide Robin Garwood to share what they were working on and what life in City Hall was like. After serving 4 terms Cam lost his relection in 2021 but has continued to be involved in local politics and to use this forum to report and share his perspective on public policy. Please feel free to comment on posts, within certain ground rules.

Seward Resident Leaves Money to City

Lifelong Seward resident Bob Olson has left $100,000 to the City of Minneapolis, in addition to gifts of $50,000 to two of his neighbors and hundreds of thousands of dollars for the University library. I thank Mr. Olson for his generous contribution. It sounds like he was an avid cyclist, and I'm looking for ways to put his donation towards bicycle infrastructure - a fitting memorial for a good and generous man.
