The property owners at 6512 Belmore Lane, are requesting an 18-foot variance from Section 36-439 of the Edina Zoning Ordinance to allow a 51.4-foot setback from the front lot line where the required front yard setback is subject to the neighbor’s front yard setback of 69.9 feet from their front lot line. The variance is to allow the construction of a porch behind the home, which already encroaches the entire front yard setback given the location of the adjacent neighbor to the west. The porch is proposed behind the home and completely within the rear yard.
Public Input Instructions
The City of Edina offers several ways for people to provide input on development projects. Regardless of the method, all public input is considered, so people only need to use one method.
Making a Public Comment on Better Together Edina
- Your comment will be available to Planning Commission, City Council, staff and others to review immediately instead of waiting until the in-person public hearing.
- Your comment will be posted and publicly viewable as soon as you hit 'Submit'.
- You will not be able to edit or remove your comment.
- Please introduce yourself, your neighborhood and your thoughts about this project.
Example: Barbara Smith, The Heights. The project is two blocks from my home and my children would have to walk past it every day on their way to school. Please consider adding sidewalks to this project.
Other Ways to Provide Your Comment
1 - Leave a voicemail with your public input at 952-826-0377. Staff will submit the transcribed voicemail to Better Together Edina.
2 - A in-person public hearing will take place in the City Hall Council Chambers, 4801 W. 50th St. Attend the meetings in person to give public input or watch the meetings live from home on Edina TV (Comcast Channels 813 or 16) or EdinaMN.gov/LiveMeetings. Call in to provide live testimony at 312-535-8110. Call in access code and password are provided in the meeting agenda which can be found at EdinaMN.gov/Agendas.
Generally, the City Council makes a decision on each development project at the City Council meeting following the second public hearing.
If you have any difficulties with participating, contact Community Engagement Manager, MJ Lamon at Administration@EdinaMN.gov or 952-826-0360
