Division of the property into smaller blocks (existing small lot);
Improved pedestrian connections to move people through and around the site. This
includes an improved sidewalk along Hazelton, and would provide a future connection
to the Promenade along the north lot line.
Provides additional public space adjacent to the Promenade.
High quality buildings and design;
Public art;
Enhances the pedestrian experience along Hazelton Road and the Promenade.
Affordable housing;
5. The proposed project would meet the following goals and policies of the Comprehensive
Plan:
a. Movement Patterns.
• Provide sidewalks along primary streets and connections to adjacent neighborhoods
along secondary streets or walkways.
• Provide pedestrian amenities, such as wide sidewalks, street trees, pedestrian-scale
lighting, and street furnishings (benches, trash receptacles, etc.)
• A Pedestrian-Friendly Environment. Improving the auto-oriented design pattern
discussed above under "Issues" will call for guidelines that change the relationship
between parking, pedestrian movement and building placement.
b. Encourage infill/redevelopment opportunities that optimize use of City infrastructure
and that complement area, neighborhood, and/or corridor context and character.
C. Support and enhance commercial areas that serve the neighborhoods, the City, and
the larger region.
d. Increase mixed-use development where supported by adequate infrastructure to
minimize traffic congestion, support transit, and diversify the tax base.
e. Increase pedestrian and bicycling opportunities and connections between
neighborhoods, and with other communities, to improve transportation infrastructure
and reduce dependence on the car.
f. Buildings should be placed in appropriate proximity to streets creating pedestrian
scale. Buildings "step down" at boundaries with lower-density districts and upper
stories "step back" from street.
g. Building Placement and Design. Where appropriate, building facades should form a
consistent street wall that helps to define the street and enhance the pedestrian
environment. On existing auto-oriented development sites, encourage placement of
liner buildings close to the street to encourage pedestrian movement.
i. Locate prominent buildings to visually define corners and screen parking lots.
ii. Locate building entries and storefronts to face the primary street, in addition to
any entries oriented towards parking areas.
RESOLUTION NO. 2018-104

iii. Encourage storefront design of mixed-use buildings at ground floor level, with
windows and doors along at least 50% of the front fa4ade.
iv. Encourage or require placement of surface parking to the rear or side of buildings,
rather than between buildings and the street.
6. The proposal meets the City's criteria for PUD zoning. In summary the PUD zoning
would:
a. Creates a more pedestrian-friendly development with the construction of improved
sidewalks and connections to the Promenade. The project would bring vibrancy to the
area, and enhance the experience in the district.
b. The building would be of high quality stone, brick, metal and glass.
c. Ensure that the buildings proposed would be the only buildings built on the site, unless
an amendment to the PUD is approved by City Council.
d. Project would contribute to the City's Affordable Housing. Additionally, micro units
would provide housing for a college graduate, young professional, young couple
returning home and looking for a new home, corporate transfers interested in Edina,
single empty nesters and retired persons.
e. Provide for a more creative site design, consistent with goals and policies in the
Comprehensive Plan.
f. Enhance green space and landscaping and utilize sustainable concepts.
7. The existing roadways and parking would support the project. Spack Consulting
conducted a traffic impact study, and concluded that the proposed development could be
supported by the existing roads and proposed parking.
