Updated the name. I am leaving this open because I came across MN DNR's page (https://www.dnr.state.mn.us/polymet/permitting/index.html) about court process/rulings on the permit to mine here. The latest update is March 2023. It was ruled that "...after review of the recommendation of the administrative law judge, the DNR will make a final permit decision on the permit to mine application." It could be that the permits will be revoked if the mining operation is negatively effecting the water in the area.

I don't love the current condition of the area but it's hard to edit in iD and wonder if it'd be easier for someone familiar with JOSM: - landuse=quarry is only applicable to the area where something is currently being mined, but no mining is occurring here - landuse=quarry is currently applied to man_made=spoil_heap and man_made=tailings_pond and shouldn't be - landuse=industrial could be applied to the whole area encompassing the spoil heap, tailings pond, and processing plant - landuse=brownfield isn't particularly because it assumes a formerly developed area, which it wasn't; it's in the same state it was when the former operator went bankrupt Figure 3.2-23 has more info on what would be considered the plant (not mine) site: https://files.dnr.state.mn.us/input/environmentalreview/polymet/feis/007_chapter_3_proposed_action_and_alternatives.pdf

12024-10-28 18:50openedMVSchoolsWhen I search 2070 County Road H I end up here, but it should point to a spot about a mile west of here where Sunnyside Elementary School sits (https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/12539066#map=18/45.092770/-93.213717&layers=N). Visitors trying to get to that school have reported ending up in the wrong location when using Mapquest and Lyft, both built on the OpenStreetMap platform.
22025-02-15 04:08commentedgvwaal
♦120
This note is in the wrong place and should be a mile east, but I digress, the issue might be because Ramsey County refers to this road both with the directional and without, and also uses parcel addresses with the directional and without. I emailed them to see how they want this road referred to. Your solution for the time being is to update Sunnyside's "Contact Us" page to include the directional, and tell people to include the directional (MapQuest has both versions and the directional takes you to the school), because the parcel the school sits on uses the directional in its property address.

I received confirmation from a Ramsey County and Mounds View staff that Mounds View/New Brighton refer to this road differently. I updated the name tags to reflect the name as it appears on road signs and as it's officially known.

see https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/188040655 added by Brian Tang: Can anyone confirm with local knowledge or other resources whether the through movement from Shoreline Blvd to 170th St E is prohibited, as suggested by the pavement markings in the Mapbox Satellite aerial imagery?
22024-02-18 23:45commentedroertel
♦22
170th is a relatively new road. You can cross from Shoreline to 170th,but the pavement markings haven't been repainted from before 170th was there.
32024-02-19 17:07commentedgpserror
♦12,236
the pavement for 170th seems actually to be fairly old since esri clarity has it. And it appears that only mapbox has no straight ahead. bing/esri have 2023 photos with forward traversal legal. I'd say that unless it's changed within the last 9 months or so, it's okay to traverse east to west through this intersection (and mapbox usually is older than 9 months?)

♦120
Closing with no action. All but one (Esri Clarity) imagery sources currently available have "forward and left/right turn" pavement markings on Shoreline and 170th.

Naming of this stream is inconsistent. In most places it is named "Nine Mile Creek", but in a few places, it is "Ninemile Creek". The correct name is "Nine Mile Creek". Sources: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q20707120 https://www.ninemilecreek.org/ Local knowledge

I have found that the USGS and EPA do call this stream (and its associated watershed) "Ninemile Creek". In general, the federal government seems to prefer the one word spelling, while local and state governments tend to prefer the two word spelling. https://water.usgs.gov/lookup/getwbd?070200121108 https://mywaterway.epa.gov/community/070200121108/overview

I've noticed that the shape boundaries for many Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board linear parks/parkways are missing from OSM. Linden Hills Parkway is a good example. Here is the MPRB park property GIS data set, published by the City of Minneapolis through its open data platform: http://opendata.minneapolismn.gov/datasets/parks Does anyone know of any lists or groups covering Minneapolis I could contact about getting buy-in and help with an import of the MPRB park property boundaries that are currently missing from OSM?
