Assessing Division
The Assessing Division is responsible for estimating the market value and determining the classification of each piece of property (parcel) in the City of Edina for property tax purposes.

Planning Division
The Planning Division is primarily responsible for the review and management of development and redevelopment in the City of Edina. The division coordinates the preparation of a comprehensive plan that lays out with the City's long-range guide to how property should be developed or redeveloped. Within the context of the comprehensive plan, the division administers the City's zoning ordinances, which govern how property can be used. Planning staff provides recommendations to the Planning Commission and City Council on all land use issues.
