 For NPR News in the Twin Cities, I'm Emily Reese. Minneapolis Park Board commissioners will hold a special meeting tonight to hear from contract negotiators. That, as a strike by park workers that started on July 4th, is set to end this week. The Park Board and the union representing 300 workers are at odds over the size of wage increases and job safety. One of the commissioners who called for today's meeting, Billy Mentz, said that with negotiations stalled, it's time to at least learn about what's happened.
