Public Works Site Redevelopoment

The City Council will use a small area guide process to determine the future of the existing Public Works site at 5146 Eden Ave. Members of the Planning Commission have recommended an intensive, six-week-long process that is typically part of a Small Area Plan.

The Commission envisions a process founded in interaction with the community, lead by representatives of the community, with design direction provided by volunteer planning and design professionals who live in Edina. It is intended that the process occur during a short period with numerous meetings with the public and among a Community Advisory Team charged with guiding this part of the Small Area Plan process. Members of the Community Advisory Team might include representatives of various City commissions, residents, property owners and business owners in the Grandview Heights area.

The Public Works Department is expected to move into its new facility and vacate the Eden Avenue property in the summer of 2010.
