MOUN-DS viEw City of Mounds View Staff Report Item No: 08C Meeting Date: November 24, 2025 Type of Business: Council Business City Administrator Review: To: Honorable Mayor and Mounds View City Council From: Kribashini Moorthy, AICP Evan Monson, AICP, Stantec, City Planner Item Title/Subject: Second Reading and Approval of Ordinance 1051 Rezoning the Property at 2716 Hillview Road from R-1(Single Family Residential) to R-4 (Multi Family Residential) 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). The city's Planning Commission held public hearings and reviewed both requests at their 11/5/2025 meeting. The Council approved of the amendment to the Comprehensive Plan at their 11/10/2025 meeting, and also held the first reading on the amendment to the zoning map (ordinances and ordinance amendments require two readings).
