Best of
the Twin Cities
Through his Twitter feed, YouTube account, and website, John Edwards is shining a light on the often absurd mechanics of local government. He’s both entertaining and informative, which is not something that can always be said of the civic hearings and meetings he covers. His coverage spans the Twin Cities but centers on Minneapolis’ Wedge area, where development and infrastructure have become so contentious that a hoax protest calling bike lanes “Nazi lanes” actually attracted non-ironic marchers. Follow Edwards for funny videos like “Sharon the YIMBY” and “The True Cost of Bike Lanes,” then stick around to actually learn a thing or two about how decisions affecting your neighborhood get made.
