THE PLAN TO MODERNIZE THE OLD EDINA!

This week I read the Zephyrus, the Edina High School newspaper. There was one article in the newspaper that struck me, THE PLAN TO MODERNIZE THE OLD EDINA! Edina's metropolitan council is required every ten years to draw up ideas for the city. Such plans include, building new restaurants such as Leann Chin and new hang out places for Edina sports teams. Mayor Jim Hovland conducts plans to make Edina a more modern place for consumers. Edina has many things to offer to the consumer such as Southdale Mall and The Galleria but this city lacks recreational party areas for the Edina sports teams. The city has a grant to built a skyway from Southdale to the Galleria and Planning the development of a new promenade that runs behind the Original Pancake House connecting to centennial lakes which will get the village feel that Hovland desires. I think this new plan to modernize Edina is all in all a positive step forward to include all ages of the Edina population.
