• The committee also approved a legislative directive requesting the Mayor’s proposal for a 3rd Precinct Facility at 2600 Minnehaha Ave S in addition to a site analysis, fiscal analysis, and a review of relevant reports and agreements. Mayor Jacob Frey requested the full council make a decision on the location by October 31st. However, nine members of the council disagreed and voted to delay the decision on the Community Safety Center at 2600 Minnehaha Ave S until the next COW meeting on October 31st.
