RESOLUTION APPROVING A SITE PLAN WITH VARIANCES AT 3210 SOUTHDALE
CIRCLE TO TEAR DOWN AND BUILD A NEW TACO BELL FOR BORDER FOODS
BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Edina,Minnesota,as follows:
Section 1. BACKGROUND.
1.01 Border Foods Inc. is proposing to tear down the existing Taco Bell restaurant and rebuild a
new slightly smaller Taco Bell at 3210 Southdale Circle.
1.02 To accommodate the proposed addition,the following is requested:
1. Parking Setback Variances from 10 to 4 feet from the north and south lot line. (Existing
condition is a 3-foot setback.)
2. Front Yard Building Setback Variance from 35 to 22 feet.
3. Variance for side menu board facing a residential area. (Existing menu board directly faces
residential area.)
The property is legally described as follows:
Tract C,Registered Land Survey No.1357,Hennepin County,Minnesota.
1.02 With the exception of the requested Variances,the proposed plans meet all minimum Zoning
Ordinance Requirements.
1.03 On April 9,2014,the Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of the
proposed Site Plan and Variances subject to findings and conditions in the Planning
Commission staff report dated April 9,2014.
Section 2. FINDINGS
Approval is subject to the following findings:
1. The proposal would meet the required standards and ordinances for a Site Plan with the
exception of the setback variances.
2. The proposed variances are reasonable.The proposed building is smaller than the existing
building on the site;the green space setback for the parking stalls would be increased by
one-foot from existing conditions;and the menu board would be moved to the south side
of the building and pointed away from the residential area to the east.
