IOCP plan approved by Wayzata City Council

Interfaith Outreach & Community Partners launched its new housing plan last Tuesday, despite controversy regarding the amount of multi-family housing Wayzata currently has.

Wayzata City Council approved IOCP's plan to tear down the current 6,600 square-foot building on Grand Avenue for the Legacy Townhomes project.

The major issue concerning the project was the current amount of multi-family homes in Wayzata, which is approaching 57 percent.

Through any concerns, City Council felt confident enough to pass the general plan and design.

A last City Council reading on September 20th will allow IOCP to continue with the plan once the zoning map for the planned unit development is approved.

The project, which will include three units with two bedrooms and three units with three bedrooms, was passed on a vote of 3-2.

Rent at IOCP will be 10 to 20 percent less than fair market.
