5421 and 5425 France Ave (St. Peter's Church) Sketch Plan
The city has received a sketch plan request by AbleLight Edina to redevelop the St. Peter’s Church site located at the intersection of France Avenue and Fuller Street. (5421 & 5425 France Avenue) The applicant is proposing to remodel and expand the existing church at 5421 France Avenue. The expansion would be a three-story 48-unit apartment. Twelve of the units would be considered affordable housing and designated for young adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The proposal also includes a subdivision to build four single family homes. The request would require a Comprehensive Plan from LDA, Low Density Residential (LDA allows 1-5 dwelling units per acre) to HD, High Density Residential (HD allows 12-60 units per acre); and a rezoning from R-1, Single Dwelling Unit District to PUD, Planned Unit Development. The density of the project would be 33 units per acre.
This sketch plan will be considered by the Planning Commission on April 13, 2022 and the City Council on April 19, 2022.
