Consultation has concluded

The Minnetonka City Council approved a new Natural Resources Master Plan at its Dec. 20, 2021 meeting. The plan was developed over the course of several months with consultation from the Minnetonka Park Board and broader community engagement through surveys and feedback generated on the Minnetonka Matters platform.

The purpose of the plan is to set direction and priorities for Minnetonka's Natural Resources Division. To that end, the plan presents opportunities for ecosystem regeneration and capitalizes on the holistic benefits (ecological, societal, and economic) of improving and maintaining natural resources in the city. The plan addresses climate adaption and resilience, but not climate mitigation or reducing carbon footprint. It also addresses goals and strategies to protect and improve natural resources of public property, and ways to encourage such action on private property.
