October 22, 2026 Zoning Board of Adjustment

The Minneapolis Zoning Board of Adjustment meeting is identified in the metadata as October 22, 2026, though the transcript’s opening and references to prior minutes identify it as the September 24, 2026 meeting. The board approved the agenda and prior minutes. It approved on consent the staff-recommended item for 2415 Bloomington Avenue, concerning a fence-height variance. The board also approved, by a reported 7–0 vote, a variance for a proposed two-story single-family home at 4021 Queen Avenue South, allowing development within 40 feet of a steep slope in the Shoreland Overlay District. Neighbors raised concerns about grading, runoff, and impacts to adjacent properties and parkland; the applicant described proposed retaining walls and swales, with drainage and other requirements to be reviewed through later permitting. The board also approved its 2027 calendar and adjourned.

No contracts, purchases, public-project funding, or other procurement activity were identified.
