Zoning Board continues land‑use request for 2807 Sunset Boulevard to April 10

The Minneapolis Zoning Board of Adjustment on March 20, 2025, voted to continue a land‑use application for 2807 Sunset Boulevard to its April 10, 2025, meeting after staff said the applicant asked for more time to refine application materials and to meet on site with staff.

Staff member (City planning staff) told the board: "So the request came from the applicant. They had required a little bit more time to refine their application materials. They also were seeking to meet on-site with staff." The board approved the continuance by voice vote; no roll‑call tally was provided during the meeting.

The board discussed public notice for the continuance. A board member asked whether neighbors would receive a second notice. The staff member responded that the hearing notice is posted for the scheduled meeting and that the agenda for the meeting noted the recommendation for continuation; staff said a second mailed notice is not sent after the meeting and interested parties must follow the board's postings on the city's Legislative Information Management System (LIMS).

No members of the public spoke for or against the continuance during the meeting. The chair called for a motion to continue the land‑use request for 2807 Sunset Boulevard to April 10, 2025; the motion was moved and seconded and passed on a voice vote. The board's announcement concluded that the land‑use application will appear on the Zoning Board of Adjustment agenda on April 10, 2025.

The record shows the board had five members present for the March 20 meeting. The agenda entry for 2807 Sunset Boulevard listed a staff recommendation for continuation; staff said the timing was intended to allow the applicant to refine materials and complete an on‑site meeting with staff before the item returns to the board.
