The St. Louis Park Planning Commission is gearing up for a debate on a new housing development poised to reshape 6013 and 6019 Cedar Lake Rd. The commission announced a public hearing set for February 7, where residents can weigh in on the proposed construction of a 36-unit, three-story apartment building, which would require a rezoning from a two-family to a multiple-family residence and a conditional use permit (CUP).
Residents with a view on the matter can make their voices heard at City Hall, with the session slated to kick off at 6:00 p.m., or by firing off written or emailed comments to Gary Morrison, the city’s zoning administrator. According to the official notice, submissions need to be in by 3:30 p.m. on the day of the meeting for planners to hang their hats on them during deliberations.
The meeting isn't just for folks who can show up in person. Implemented to ensure broader access, an online feed will be available through the city's link or local cable for anyone interested in following the action as it unfolds. There's a promise of auxiliary aids for people with disabilities itching to tune in, but make sure you ring up City Hall 96 hours before the meeting to have everything set up.
Those with questions that can't be shelved until the session or need more details to cook up some comments have been directed to get in touch with COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT, per the notice. The department’s staff members will surely be on their toes to steer any inquiries as the hearing date draws closer, providing the transparency and guidance avid expected from a city known for its tight-knit community engagement.
