Planning Commission - Regular Meeting

The Edina Planning Commission denied two variance requests. The first, for Cavalry Church, sought a reduced setback for a storage building, but was denied due to concerns about a shared driveway and neighborhood character. The second, for a homeowner at 5620 Woodcrest Drive, requested variances for a four-season porch and deck closer to a pond, but was denied over concerns about setting a precedent for increased building coverage and reduced setbacks on non-conforming properties.
