RESOLUTI NO. 2014-105
APPROVING FINAL REZONING FROM POD-1, PLANNED OFFICE DISTRICT TO
PCD-2,PLANNED COMMERCIAL DISTRICT AND FINAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN
WITH VARIANCES FOR 5108 EDINA INDUSTRIAL BOULEVARD
BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Edina,Minnesota,as follows:
Section 1. BACKGROUND.
1.01 Frauenshuh Commercial Real Estate is proposing to tear down the existing 12,199 square foot
office building and build a new 10,000 square foot retail building that would include a drive-
through. The property is located at 5108 Edina Industrial Boulevard,just west of Highway
100,and is located across the street from retail uses that are zoned PCD-2,Planned
Commercial District. Retail uses to the south include the Shell Gas Station, Burger King, Dairy
Queen,and a small retail strip center. North and east of the site are office/light industrial
uses.
1.02 The property is legally described as follows:
Lot 3, Block 1, Edina Interchange Center 6th Addition,Hennepin County,Minn.
• 1.03 To accommodate the request,the following we required:
b
1. Final Rezoning from POD-1,Planned Office District-1,to PCD-2,Planned Commercial
District-2.
2. Final Development Plan with consideration of Front Yard Setback Variances from 35 to
33 and 25 feet.
1.04 The project has received a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to guide the site for retail uses
and Preliminary Rezoning.
1.05 On September 10,2014,the Planning Commission recommended approval of the request with
added conditions. Vote: 7 Ayes and 2 Nays.
Section 2. FINDINGS
2.01 Approval is based on the following findings:
Approval is subject to the following findings:
• 1. The proposed rezoning meets the criteria in Section 36-216,in the Planning Commission staff
report,in regard to rezoning property. The project would be consistent with the

• Comprehensive Plan. The project would not be detrimental to the surrounding properties;
would not result in an overly intensive land use;would not result in undue traffic congestion
or hazards;and with the exception of the setback variances would conform to all zoning
ordinance requirements.
2. The proposed land uses are consistent with existing and proposed land uses in this area. The
uses to the south exist today as neighborhood commercial uses. The proposed limited retail
uses and PCD-2 zoning would complement and enhance this limited retail area.
3. The variance criteria are met. The proposed variance is reasonable.The practical difficulty is
the small size of the site. A building could be located on the site to meet all the applicable
setback requirements,however,the result would be a building located in the middle of the site
with parking lots in front.
4. The unique circumstances are the small size of the property and location as a corner lot.The
building could be moved back to meet required setbacks,however,would create a parking lot
in the front. While there are other small corner lots in the PCD-2 Districts,these circumstances
are generally unique compared to all PCD-2 District properties.
5. The following goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan would be met: "Where
appropriate,building facades should form a consistent street wall that helps to define the
street and enhance the pedestrian environment." This would be the first building in this area
to be brought up to the street. Currently there are no sidewalks on the site.The proposed
• boulevard style sidewalk will encourage pedestrian movement in the area.
6. The traffic and parking study done by Wenck concludes that the existing roadways can
support the proposed project.
