I live in Ward 7, but given that we share Uptown with Ward 10, I was very interested in what DeShanneon had to say. I appreciate her desire to bring Uptown back to life. Although a long-time Minneapolis resident, I am just now getting acquainted with the politics of the city. I appreciate Terry for trying to explain and advocate for our city. I recently wrote my lament for Uptown and my attempt to understand what has happened and how it could be saved: https://open.substack.com/pub/catchgroove/p/uptown-lament-minneapolis?r=5hgtj&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false
I didn’t listen to the interview, but am curious about her detailed plans on homelessness. It seems so many politicians have a single silver bullet to solve, and so few recognize the real-life complexity of the problem.
I listened, and she has some ideas that might help. But what I appreciated is that she recognizes that it is a problem, sees it as a city priority, and shows compassion. This very positive person is looking to unite, vs. divide.
Shanneon is not fit for an executive level job she suffers from a serious long term drinking problem. Don't know if she's sought sobriety by now but it used to be, for at least a decade plus, that she was at a bar or two every day, day in and day out. She would spend hours drinking daily. It's really held her behind in life.

Developers want it both ways. They want unlimited building permits but they want no limitations on the affordability of the units they build. That doesn't create affordable housing for you and me. Only the top 10% of income earners can afford rents that the developers build. It also asks renters to leave one neighborhood for the next one that's more expensive. Our city of Minneapolis needs comprehensive approaches to rental housing that leads to affordability for all -- even the lowest income earners among us.

She doesn’t pay her bills!
