Rice Street Townhomes

Project Address

• 520, 524, 530, and 534 Rice Street East

Project Description 

On June 15, 2021, the Wayzata City Council adopted a resolution denying the requests for a PUD Amendment and Variances to the R-4 and R-5 standards for the Rice Street Townhomes. 

The applicant has submitted a new development application for the Rice Street Townhomes that includes a PUD Amendment (PUD) request for four total townhome units in two separate buildings. A Planned Unit Development (PUD) and Development Agreement was approved for these properties in 2006. The applicant proposes to construct the buildings in a similar manner as the approved plans with modifications. For these modifications, the following development application requests were applied for:

• PUD Amendment to modify:
  • Staggering of unit heights for 530 and 534 Rice Street
  • Increasing size of rooftop enclosures to include elevators
  • Window designs and exterior building materials 

A neighborhood meeting is planned to be held on August 5, 2021, at 5:00 pm at Post Office Park to discuss the proposed project. An invitation is linked below. 

City Review Dates

• The City Review process was completed and the proposal was approved in 2021. 

Construction commenced in early 2022.
