Council members said they wanted to understand how their vote would connect with a recently-announced funding deal for the troubled Southwest Light Rail project.
The Metropolitan Council recently approved a plan to extend the Blue Line to run through the Lyn Park neighborhood and past Kathy Neitzke's home on Lyndale Avenue.
The METRO Blue Line Extension officially has a new route after the Hennepin County Board and Metropolitan Council voted to adopt the revised route modification on June 22.
