RESOLUTION NO.2023-75
A RESOLUTION RATIFYING APPROVAL OF THE PRELIMINARY AND FINAL
PLAT FOR NORTH 100 BUSINESS PARK ADDITION AND AUTHORIZING FINAL
PLAT RECORDING
WHEREAS, Scannell Properties, Inc. on behalf of Transformco ("the Applicant"),
submitted an application for approval of a plat to be titled NORTH 100 BUSINESS PARK
ADDITION, which would re -plat approximately 15 acres of land that is currently identified as
Registered Land Survey No. 0936, Hennepin County, Minnesota; and
WHEREAS, this request was contemplated as part of a greater request to re -develop what
is known as the former Sears Department Store and Auto Center, located at 1297 Shingle Creek
Crossing, into two business park -type buildings of approximately 120,000 square feet and
110,000 square feet, respectively, and related site improvements; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission heard this matter under Planning Commission
Application No. 2022-004 on June 23, 2022, and after the public hearing, acted to forward the
application to the City Council with a recommendation that it approve the preliminary and final
plat for NORTH 100 BUSINESS PARK ADDITION; and
WHEREAS, on August 8, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2022-76 to
approve Planning Commission Application No. 2022-004 and its requests for a preliminary and
final plat, re -zoning, and establishment of a Planned Unit Development, and amendments to the
City Zoning Code and 2040 Comprehensive Plan to allow for redevelopment of the Subject
Property subject to certain conditions; and
WHEREAS, Section 35-8107 (Final Plat) of the City Code of Ordinances for the City of
Brooklyn Center indicates that a final plat must be recorded with the Hennepin County Registrar
of Titles within one (1) year after the date of approval or the approval of the final plat shall be
considered void; and
WHEREAS, the recording of NORTH 100 BUSINESS PARK ADDITION was delayed
as the Applicant worked through certain parking easement requirements outlined as conditions of
approval with an adjacent Property Owner, application to and the awarding of grant funding for
asbestos abatement through the Metropolitan Council, and due to changes in the market; and
WHEREAS, the City Council determines that requiring the Applicant to go through the
entire plat approval process when there have been no changes to the approved plat is not in the
public interest and is willing to ratify its earlier approval to allow the plat to be recorded without
further process, subject to the Applicant complying with all conditions as outlined under City
Council Resolution No. 2022-76.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Brooklyn
Center, Minnesota that approval of the preliminary and final plat for NORTH 100 BUSINESS
PARK ADDITION is hereby ratified, and authorization to record the final plat may occur subject
to the following conditions:
1. The conditions established in the original approvals as outlined under City Council
Resolution No. 2022-76 remain in effect; and
2. Prior to recording, the Applicant shall provide the City updated evidence of title
satisfactory to the City Attorney and City Planner.
