The Planning Commission has begun work to update Edina's zoning ordinance. The goals of the zoning
ordinance revisions are to bring it into compliance with the Comprehensive Plan, make the City's
development process more clear, consider a Planned Unit Development District ordinance to allow
flexibility from standard zoning in exchange for strengthened City control over development, resolve the
procedural issue of the Zoning Board of Appeals taking final action on large development projects
requiring variances, and add performance standards.
The Planning Commission is forming a committee of the whole to recommend changes to the zoning
ordinance. When a meeting is indicated in this process chart, it is intended that it be a meeting of the
committee, not a meeting of the Commission. During the process, which is outlined below, there will be
opportunities for the public to participate and offer comments and suggestions. Meetings of the Zoning
Ordinance Update Committee (ZOUC) are open to the public. Time will be reserved for public comment at
the end of each meeting's agenda
