Subdistrict F

I am ready to vote!

Corey Mohan

What do you love about the Summit-University District?
I love the walkability to the amenities of our St. Paul neighborhood, the ability to easily get to the co-op grocery, YWCA, restaurants, parks and lovely historic neighborhoods. I love the diversity of neighbors and housing options. Our neighborhood embodies what I think of as the best attributes of city living. 

How have you been involved in your community in the past?
I’ve no formal involvement to date but am a 12 year resident and happy to be living in our neighborhood and supporting our many businesses and community amenities.I’ve served on the board of our housing association and worked to establish a rain garden there in conjunction with our local watershed district. I’ve been a long-time member of the YWCA. I’m thrilled at the revitalization of Boyd Park with the new play structures and I visit several times a week with my wife and grandchild. I’ve attended both Juneteenth celebrations hosted there. I truly appreciate what Boyd Park adds to our neighborhood and want to insure that it remains vital in our community. I walk our neighborhood both night and day, attend the Wednesday concerts on Summit, pick up litter along Selby and surrounding streets. I play music in the park on occasion and professionally in local venues on Selby. 

Please tell us about why you are running to join the SUPC Board:
I want a safe, walkable, vibrant and diverse neighborhood and I will work hard to engage my neighbors and businesses to find out their hopes for and concerns about our community. I have a background in social work and education as well as music and business and want to use those skills and experiences to connect our residents with each other and with opportunities to influence decisions that determine the future of our St.Paul and our neighborhood in particular.
