NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING ON OLIN II

The following letter was forwarded to us by Council Member Colvin Roy's office. Hilary Dvorak is the city planner assigned to the OLIN II proposal and previously, Olin I, and Minnehaha Place Condominiums.

NENA submitted a narrative with the appeal, NENA's appeal narrative (pdf). That narrative is a response to the Planner's (staff) recommendations (pdf) as passed in whole by the Planning Commission.


TO: Council Member Sandy Colvin Roy
DATE: July 17, 2006
FROM: Hilary Dvorak
SUBJECT: Appeal [of BZZ-2923]

The Nokomis East Neighborhood Association has filed an appeal of the decision of the City Planning Commission in regard to the Olin Crossing Phase II development. The appeal is associated with the decision of the City Planning Commission to approve the:

  • Conditional use permit for 43 dwelling units
  • Variance to increase the floor area ratio of the building from 2.04 to 2.52 (19 percent increase).
  • Variance to reduce the minimum lot size requirement from 763 square feet per dwelling unit to 586 square feet per dwelling unit (23 percent decrease).
  • Site plan review

The appeal is associated with the application originally filed by David Crockett, on behalf of Olin 4, LLC, for the properties located at 4912 East 54th Street, 5363, 5367 and 5371 Minnehaha Avenue.

This matter will receive an additional public hearing before the Zoning and Planning Committee of the Minneapolis City Council on Thursday, July 27, 2006, at 9:30 AM in Room 317 City Hall, 350 South 5th Street. You are invited to attend and be heard.
