Planning Commission - 11 May 2026

The City of Burnsville Planning Commission held a meeting on May 11, 2026, primarily to review two proposed city-owned land sales for consistency with the 2040 Comprehensive Plan as required by Minnesota statute. The first property at 14751 Portland Avenue South is proposed for sale to a developer planning 11 single-family units, consistent with the low-density residential designation and permitted density. The commission voted to find this sale consistent with the comprehensive plan. The second property at 13713 Frontier Court is proposed for sale to Great River Energy to expand a power substation, an essential service. The commission also found this sale consistent with the comprehensive plan and recommended approval to the city council. Additionally, the commission discussed the recent RFP for the 2050 comprehensive plan update, noting receipt of three consultant proposals and upcoming interviews. No specific contract awards or purchase prices were disclosed during the meeting.
