Wayzata Planning Commission Reschedules June Meeting

Meeting date: May 19, 2025
Published Jul 2, 2025

The Wayzata Planning Commission voted Monday to cancel its June 2 meeting and reschedule to June 9 to accommodate a Walser Lamborghini development application.

Commissioner Chris Planton, acting as chair, led the meeting that covered routine consent agenda items including building variances for properties at 323 Waycliffe North and 1407 Holdridge Lane. Commissioner Elg abstained from voting on the Holdridge Lane variance.

Development Director Sharp provided updates on several ongoing projects. The 641 Lake Street development has completed demolition of the older building section and will begin restructuring. The sidewalk closure at that location will likely remain in place until mid to late June due to safety concerns for construction workers and pedestrians.

Clappage Park will close for the summer starting in June for a comprehensive redesign project approved by the City Council. The park's ice rink and warming house are scheduled to reopen by winter. Sharp also announced an Arbor Day event at Depot Park on May 31 from noon to 2 p.m.

The commission must confirm member availability for the June 9 meeting by this week to ensure a full quorum for the Walser Lamborghini application review.
