Item No: 08B & 08C �,�T Meeting Date: November 10, 2025 MOU-NDS VIE Type of Business: Council Business City Administrator Review City of Mounds View Staff Report To: Honorable Mayor and City Council From: Kribashini Moorthy, AICP Evan Monson, AICP, Stantec, City Planner Item Title/Subject: Comprehensive Plan Amendment and Rezoning for 2716 Hillview Road Introduction: The applicant, Sinan Music, owns a local construction business. He has entered into a purchase agreement with the EDA for the property located at 2716 Hillview Road (as shown in Figure 1). The parcel is currently vacant and zoned R-1, with a Future Land Use designation of `Single- Family Detached Residential'. The applicant proposes to construct a single building containing four attached row-style townhome units. At present, the parcel is zoned R-1, Single Family Residential. Under the provisions of the R-1 zoning district (R-1, Single-Family Residential District), attached row-style townhomes are not a permitted use. Therefore, the proposed development would require a rezoning of the parcel to a district that permits this use (such as R-4), or the approval of a planned unit development (PUD). The city's 2040 comprehensive plan includes a future land use map, which guides the future use and development of land within the city. The applicant's parcel is currently guided `Single-Family Detached Residential. To accommodate this development and ensure consistency between the future land use map and the city's zoning map, the applicant is requesting that the parcel be re-designated as `Multi-Family Residential' in the Future Land Use Map, and rezoned to R-4 (Multiple-Family Residential District). If the two requests are approved, the proposed townhome development can move forward, while helping the city align with long-term planning goals for housing diversity and land use compatibility. The proposed redesignation of the parcel to `Multi-Family Residential' and rezoning to R-4 (Multiple-Family Residential District) aligns with several housing and land use goals outlined in the Mounds View 2040 Comprehensive Plan.
