Section 2. FINDINGS
2.01 Approval is based on the following findings:
1. Affordable housing is identified as a need in the Comprehensive Plan; and the proposed
amendment would assist the City in meeting its established affordable housing goal with the Met
Council of providing 1,220 new affordable housing units by the year 2030. This project would
include 70 new affordable housing units toward that goal.
2. The proposed land use is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and meets the criteria for a
PUD.
3. The proposed density of 35 units per acre is reasonable, and within the density range suggested
in the Comprehensive Plan of between 10-40 units per acre.
4. The existing roadways and parking would support the project. Spack Associates conducted a
traffic impact study and concluded that the proposed development could be supported by the
existing roads and the proposed parking.
5. Project would meet the following additional Comprehensive Plan goals and objectives:
a) Encourage the development and maintenance of a range of housing options affordable to
residents at all income levels and life stages.
b) Support the development of a wide range of housing options to meet the diverse needs and
preferences of the current and future Edina community.
c) A pedestrian-friendly environment.
d) Improve connectivity, both externally & internally.
e) Ensure that public realm corridor design is contextual, respectful of community character,
supportive of commercial and mixed-use development, promoting community identity and
orientation, and creating high quality experiences for pedestrians, cyclists, and transit users.
f) Support continued livability and high quality of life for all city residents by balancing goals and
priorities for development, especially as the community responds to changes over time.
g) Encourage infill and redevelopment opportunities that optimize use of city infrastructure,
complement community context and character, and respond to needs at all stages of life.
6. Final Plans are consistent with the Preliminary Plans.
