EPNI’s Board and Staff, along with community leaders from East Phillips and Little Earth, met with officials from the Minneapolis Department of Community Planning & Economic Development to ask for a fair price in updated terms of the purchase of agreement for the former Roof Depot site given the loss of $5.7 million in anticipated state funding.
EPNI asked the City to accept $10.2 million already secured as the final purchase price for the real estate (which is appraised at $3.7 million) rather than the original agreement which required $15.9 million to purchase the building. $10.2 million is a more-than-fair price to compensate the City for its original purchase of the site in 2016, and even repays a significant portion of the costs sunk into its failed, environmentally harmful plans for the property.
This morning, City officials assured representatives of East Phillips that they will not exercise the right to terminate the deal on July 1st – that they will take EPNI’s proposal to the Mayor’s Office to find a solution ahead of the September 15th closing date. Now more than ever, the City’s elected officials need to hear from you that East Phillips deserves follow-through, not setbacks. Please continue calling your Council Member and the Mayor, and request that they agree to sell to EPNI for a fair price.
Let your Minneapolis City Officials know that this $5.7 million burden which was supposed to be supported by the State should not fall on East Phillips.
Information and directions for contacting elected officials!

Augsburg is moving to ADP Payroll processing, which will impact access to new pay statements (currently referred to as payslips). This transition is occurring as our current system, Unit4, no longer supports payroll tax updates. This shift is a crucial step in ensuring compliance with evolving payroll tax regulations and serves as an interim step in the transition to a new ERP, with an anticipated implementation in 2027.
All employees must register for an ADP account to access pay statements and make changes to direct deposit or W-4 tax withholding. More information on creating a new account will be shared via email. Contact payroll@augsburg.edu with any questions.

Sinkane fuses elements of krautrock, electronica, reggae, free jazz and funk rock with Sudanese pop to create music inspired by his experiences. Despite–or rather, because of–his unclassifiable sound, the City Slang signee is championed by a multitude of musical legends. Prior to embarking on his solo career, he worked with Eleanor Friedberger, Caribou, of Montreal, Born Ruffians, and Yeasayer as a session musician. As Band Leader and Music Director of the Atomic Bomb! He’s collaborated with rotating group members including David Byrne, Money Mark, Damon Albarn, Dev Hynes, Alexis Taylor, Amadou and Mariam, Jamie Lidell, Pharoah Sanders, Joshua Redman, among others.
Gallab’s music is his personal story, but it’s also everyone’s story. This truly universal approach leaves no room for irony or cynicism. Fueled by Gallab’s very heartbeat, it erupts into an ambitious, dazzling sound only conceivable by Sinkane.
