Overview: In a recent Oakdale Planning Commission meeting, members reviewed and ultimately recommended approval for a senior living cooperative development at 8014th Street North, despite the need for multiple zoning variances. The proposed 89-unit cooperative, part of a larger 20-acre subdivision, required variances in building height, setbacks, and lot size. The development is intended to provide high-density housing, aligning with the city’s comprehensive plan, and includes significant pedestrian infrastructure improvements.
