Unanimously voted to not allow the building of anymore drive throughs. Including banks, coffee shops and fast food, etc... They are going to save the planet from all of those nasty emmissions that are causing climate change. Wow!

Big brother at every turn so being safe in your car is not a option, so much for handicap access to a drive up, what idiots!

This may go down in the record books as one of the greatest come from behind victories ever! Minnesota trailed California in the liberal olimpics by light years just a decade or two ago. Most of us thought there was no chance of catching up or exceeding the level of nonsense and incompetence. Unfortunatley we might just pull it off. Uugg

Well, if y'all don't beat Cali, the good news is you'll still get a participation trophy lol.

they just raised the value of existing drive throughs and so increased tax revenue

OMG! I think I have meet some of those, when they hunt out of state. LOL That's why it is called California North.

Minneapolis City Council committee votes to ban new drive-through facilities- http://www.startribune.com/minneapo...-new-drive-through-facilities/513519562/ . Also view comments below article.

Bingo bingo....................just won a chicken dinner, sorry can't use a drive through.

Unfortunately liberalism is playing well in this state. Politicians are falling over each other trying to be more liberal than the next, and they're getting rewarded for it. There doesn't see to be an extreme anymore that people are unwilling to accept. Not sure where this ends but current trend is not good.

Fortunately, most large cities have beltline or bypass highways. A real drag if you have made the poor decision to live in one but otherwise, go around.

Rock on, Minneapolis. You the best.

what about the new click and collect it is becoming very popular with retail stores? it isn't a drive through you internet order then drive to the store park in a labeled space then use the app to tell them you are there to collect.

Does that mean traffic lights will be banned next to curtail emissions?

Round-a-bouts everywhere!

Never been there, but hear y’all have some pretty serious Winters. Anyone got any pics of bike riders in the snow/ice and sub freezing temps?

No pictures, but I've been there in the winter and have seen them do it. They are serious about saving the planet, or whatever.

God save us if we have to get of the vehicle and walk a bit.
Good to get those lazy b-turds off their fat arses and do a bit of walking even if it is for a giant soft drink and a bag of dohnuts.

Minneapolis is in a fast decline, the one party rulers on the council and mayoral positions have marched lock step in decisions and rulings that other major cities have put their citizens through.
What's even more disturbing are the happenings taking place within the state Health and Human services department.
Hope they investigate and get a handle on that corruption.
Should be a lot of material available for Trumps visit though!

I feel much safer.
