Endorsements

“I'm proud to support Cathy for re-election to the Park Board. In our work together, I’ve seen Cathy’s commitment to collaborating across government agencies to improve water quality in our lakes, upgrade aging infrastructure, and support the young people who work and play in our parks. As our District 6 commissioner and board president, her leadership on the board has had an impact. I look forward to her continued service to our city.”

"President Abene may represent District 6, but I have seen her show up for every neighborhood in Minneapolis. Her leadership made the difference in several important Northside projects, including the Blue Line extension and North Commons Park. I know from experience the crucial work that the Park Board does for our city, so I’m excited to endorse Cathy’s re-election campaign."

"My ward and Cathy’s district may not overlap, but our constituents want the same thing: safe and welcoming parks for everyone. I support Cathy’s re-election campaign because I know she’ll work hard to get the job done."

“Cathy and I have worked together for four years, and she is thoughtful, reasoned and unafraid to take a stand for important issues in our parks. Cathy is a water resources engineer, bringing her direct professional experience to benefit our parks. As president of the Park Board, she works collaboratively with her fellow commissioners, and together we have delivered excellent results for the residents of Minneapolis.”

"Cathy brings technical expertise and a collaborative spirit to the board, driving systemic improvements with humor, humility, and joy. It's been a privilege to serve with her, and I’m confident she’ll continue delivering for her constituents in a second term."
