Press release from the City of Golden Valley: January 29, 2021 The City's work to disavow discriminatory covenants and related discriminatory housing practices is expanding.

Members of the coalition include Mapping Prejudice, the Minnesota Association of City Attorneys, Edina Realty Title, and the Minneapolis and St. Paul Area Associations of Realtors. Participating government agencies include the City of Golden Valley, the City of Robbinsdale, and Hennepin County. More cities are expected to join in the coming months, and the coalition will launch a website in February.
