Also present were City Manager Reggie Edwards, Director of Fiscal and Support Services Angela Holm, Director of Public Works Elizabeth Heyman, Community Development Director Jesse Anderson, Planner and Zoning Administrator Ginny McIntosh, Police Chief Kellace McDaniel, Director of Community Prevention, Health and Safety LaToya Turk, Assistant City Manager/City Clerk Barb Suciu, and City Attorney Jason Hill. CITY COUNCIL DISCUSSION OF AGENDA ITEMS AND QUESTIONS Councilmember Jerzak inquired about the discussion of the proposed Public Safety Act Meeting dates prior to the proposed resolution adoption of the traffic stop and consent search policies. Mayor Graves noted that the dates are focused on the permanent advisory committee rather than the resolution. Councilmember Jerzak noted that he believes there was a misunderstanding as it was his impression the resolution would be reviewed before discussing the passing of it. Mayor Graves stated she didn’t believe it was the best use of time to go over the Daunte Wright and Kobe Dimock-Heisler Community Safety & Violence Prevention Act line by line. Some of the items have already been implemented. The fifth item from the Daunte Wright and Kobe Dimock-Heisler Community Safety & Violence Prevention Act has not been implemented, so staff has put together recommendations based on the recommendations of the Implementation Committee regarding traffic stop and consent search policies. Councilmember Jerzak noted his understanding was the Council needed to discuss the second item as well. Mayor Graves stated there could be more discussion on the second item of the Act, but it won’t change the recommendations the Council has already received. 10/23/23 -2- DRAFT Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson stated she hasn’t received a document from the League of Minnesota Cities and the City Attorney to ensure Brooklyn Center is in compliance with everything. She pointed out she was also under the impression the Council would meet with the Implementation Committee before voting on anything. Also, the Council hasn’t heard anything from the Police Chief on the traffic stops and consent searches. Mayor Graves stated Police Chief Kellace McDaniel presented on consent searches and traffic stops with Director of Community Prevention, Health and Safety LaToya Turk a few months ago, which accounted for the staff presentation. Dr. Edwards confirmed staff was instructed to return to Council with a policy reflecting the staff recommendations made during the presentation by Chief McDaniel and Ms. Turk, which is Council Consideration Item 10. Resolution Directing the Adoption of Traffic Stop and Consent Search Policies for the Brooklyn Center Police Department on the Regular Session agenda. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson requested the two policies be separated for voting consideration. Mayor Graves asked Dr. Edwards why the policies were in one motion when it was the recommendation of staff to have two separate policies. Dr. Edwards stated there are two separate policies, but there is one resolution to adopt the two policies. Mayor Graves asked if the Council only wanted to approve one of the policies. Dr. Edwards stated the resolution can be separated if that is the preference of the Council. Councilmember Jerzak pointed out that the Council isn’t allowed to talk about the settlement related to the Daunte Wright and Kobe Dimock-Heisler Community Safety & Violence Prevention Act. He asked how that can be reconciled with the policies. Dr. Edwards stated the Daunte Wright and Kobe Dimock-Heisler Community Safety & Violence Prevention Act came before the settlement, so the settlement is not the final decider on the outcome of the Daunte Wright and Kobe Dimock-Heisler Community Safety & Violence Prevention Act. There are separate decisions made for each document. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson noted the Council hasn’t discussed the consent search and traffic stops as a body. Mayor Graves stated they discussed the topic after the staff presentation. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson stated there are some aspects of each policy she is uncomfortable with. Mayor Graves stated the Council can discuss the policies after the presentation on the agenda. Mayor Graves explained the Council has received a presentation from the Implementation Committee and had a discussion, received a presentation from staff and had a discussion, and will receive another staff presentation. Also, each Councilmember has had the opportunity to review the policies and meet with Staff on their own time. 10/23/23 -3- DRAFT Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson pointed out that two members of the Council didn’t vote on the Daunte Wright and Kobe Dimock-Heisler Community Safety & Violence Prevention Act originally and have requested to review the document. Mayor Graves asked why the Daunte Wright and Kobe Dimock-Heisler Community Safety & Violence Prevention Act is more important than the subsequent policies. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson stated the policies are a product of the Daunte Wright and Kobe Dimock- Heisler Community Safety & Violence Prevention Act. The traffic stops and consent searches are part of the Daunte Wright and Kobe Dimock-Heisler Community Safety & Violence Prevention Act, and all stakeholders need to be in consensus. Mayor Graves stated Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson could make a motion to remove the item from the agenda if she wished. Councilmember Jerzak stated not all parties have had everyone at the table and had a robust discussion. There needs to be consensus in order for there to be buy-in. It is unsettling to be forced into a vote that he is uncomfortable with. Mayor Graves stated she thought the Council was ready to vote on it. She asked who else the Council wants to hear from. Councilmember Jerzak stated he wants to hear from law enforcement about any hesitations they have, particularly from the Police Chief. Dr. Edwards pointed out Chief Kellace will be presenting Council Consideration Item 10. Resolution Directing the Adoption of Traffic Stop and Consent Search Policies for the Brooklyn Center Police Department on the Regular Session agenda. Mayor Graves stated the item about the traffic stops and consent searches is on the agenda, and it is the policy that public commenters don’t comment on Council Consideration Items from the agenda. She asked the Council for their opinion on waiving the policy for the evening. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson stated she isn’t opposed to public comment as long as there are time restrictions. She noted her preference for removing the item from the agenda due to the lengthy agenda. Councilmember Jerzak noted his agreement with Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson. Council Consideration Item 10. Resolution Directing the Adoption of Traffic Stop and Consent Search Policies for the Brooklyn Center Police Department on the Regular Session agenda deserves robust discussion. Councilmembers Butler and Kragness agreed they were open to public comment on the item. Councilmember Kragness added she would have liked more information on Council Consideration Item 10. Resolution Directing the Adoption of Traffic Stop and Consent Search Policies for the Brooklyn Center Police Department on the Regular Session agenda and would like to hear directly 10/23/23 -4- DRAFT from the Police Chief. As it stands, she is not comfortable voting on the item with the current information available to her. Mayor Graves pointed out the staff recommendations have been reviewed and approved by the Police Chief. Councilmember Kragness stated she hasn’t heard directly from the Police Chief , although he did co-present previously. Mayor Graves stated she wants to keep the item on the agenda as it is the same set of staff recommendations just in policy form. The Police Chief has already presented the item, and the Council has already had opportunities to ask questions of the Police Chief, both at the aforementioned presentation and outside of Council meetings. She asked what questions remain unanswered for the rest of the Council. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson stated the Council has not discussed the different types of traffic stops nor the conflicting language with the settlement the Council is unable to openly discuss. Mayor Graves pointed out, as did Dr. Edwards, that the settlement is separate from the Daunte Wright and Kobe Dimock-Heisler Community Safety & Violence Prevention Act. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson stated she has read the settlement and understands its differences from the Daunte Wright and Kobe Dimock-Heisler Community Safety & Violence Prevention Act. However, the language used in the proposed policies is different from the language used in the settlement. Councilmember Jerzak stated he wants to hear directly from the Chief that police officers have provided input into the policies and are committed to the process. He wants to hear the information from Chief Kellace alone without a co-presenter. Councilmember Jerzak stated he wants the policies to pass, but he cannot make a well-informed decision without hearing the potential concerns of the parties who will enforce the policies. Mayor Graves asked if the Council could table the item after the planned presentation. City Attorney Jason Hill confirmed the item can be tabled after the presentation and prior to any vote approving or opposing the item. Mayor Graves noted it was the consensus of the Council to allow public comment regarding Council Consideration Item 10. Resolution Directing the Adoption of Traffic Stop and Consent Search Policies for the Brooklyn Center Police Department. She stated the public comment period would begin at 6:30 p.m. to allow for more commenters. ADJOURNMENT Mayor Graves called for a brief recess prior to the Regular Meeting. Hearing no objection, Mayor Graves adjourned the Study Session at 6:26 p.m. 10/23/23 -1- DRAFT MINUTES OF THE PROCEEDINGS OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BROOKLYN CENTER IN THE COUNTY OF HENNEPIN AND THE STATE OF MINNESOTA REGULAR SESSION OCTOBER 23, 2023 CITY HALL – COUNCIL CHAMBERS 1. INFORMAL OPEN FORUM WITH CITY COUNCIL CALL TO ORDER INFORMAL OPEN FORUM The Brooklyn Center City Council met in an Informal Open Forum called to order by Mayor April Graves at 6:33 p.m. ROLL CALL Mayor April Graves, Councilmembers Marquita Butler, Kris Lawrence-Anderson, Dan Jerzak, and Teneshia Kragness. Also present were City Manager Reggie Edwards, Director of Fiscal and Support Services Angela Holm, Director of Public Works Elizabeth Heyman, Community Development Director Jesse Anderson, Planner and Zoning Administrator Ginny McIntosh, Police Chief Kellace McDaniel, Director of Community Prevention, Health and Safety LaToya Turk, Assistant City Manager/City Clerk Barb Suciu, and City Attorney Jason Hill. Mayor April Graves opened the meeting for an Informal Open Forum. Lori B. stated research has shown consent searches are not beneficial. She explained her two sons are of driving age and have similar demographics as Duante Wright and Kobe Dimock-Heisler. Complying with law enforcement doesn't ensure safety for people of color. She read a poem about taking other people's perspectives into consideration and violence against people of color, particularly at the hands of law enforcement. Amity D. thanked the Council for allowing for comments on traffic stops and consent searches. A majority of people supported the initial passing of the Daunte Wright and Kobe Dimock-Heisler Community Safety & Violence Prevention Act. People from all over applauded Brooklyn Center and its efforts. In the time since then, many parties have wasted their time and been met with barriers by the City. The Council cannot say they don't have enough information after two years of discussions and presentations. She encouraged the Council to approve the proposed policies as the City cannot continue to shut down the Dimock family, the Wright family, and the Brooklyn Center community. John T. noted his best friend, Philando Castille, was murdered in 2016 by law enforcement, and there was a community response asking for change. However, the same things keep happening even in 2021 with Duante Wright. Kim Potter has already gotten out of jail, but the City hasn 't 10/23/23 -2- DRAFT made any significant changes. He addressed Councilmembers Lawrence-Anderson and Jerzak and noted he remembered who pointed out Emmett Till and who hung him. Katie W. pointed out she was optimistic coming into the meeting. However, the discussion by the Council during the Study Session was discouraging. The Implementation Committee has done immense work and research in recent years. They have answered every question asked of them while maintaining their full-time jobs and lives. Even the new Councilmembers cannot claim they don't know what's happening in the community. Katie W. listed several people of color who have been murdered by law enforcement during traffic stops. She stated that there should be more than enough information for the Council to make a change. Toshira G. shared a story of a loved one's experience with St. Paul law enforcement in 2009. The person is a man of color named Justin Teigen, who was brutally beaten by law enforcement and found in a dumpster. Katie Wright and Amity Dimock lost their sons but still dedicated time to the Implementation Committee and making changes in the community. She called for the Council and Staff to consider the Black men of color in each of their lives that could be the next Duante Wright or Kobe Dimock-Heisler. Michelle G. introduced herself as the president of Communities United Against Police Brutality and stated the organization sent a letter to the Council. She noted that following up on such emotional commentary is difficult but would stick to policy recommendations. As for the consent search policy proposal, it must be noted that asking for a consent search means that there isn 't probable cause. However, law enforcement is not on equal footing as the people they are asking consent from, which doesn't make it legitimate consent. Michelle G. pointed out that the Brooklyn Center Police Department is the deadliest law enforcement entity in the State based on its size. The Minnesota Department of Human Rights decree with Minneapolis bans consent searches. The consent decree also bans equipment stops entirely. Zoe C. noted she had been stopped for driving while Black multiple times. Her car is tinted and is stopped regularly for that as well. It is insulting to see Brooklyn Center moving backward rather than forward. She added the police need to be educated on how to interact with people of color rather than the other way around. Julie B. explained when she applied to be part of the Implementation Committee; she had no idea how long the process would take. It took extensive research, collaboration, time, and discussions to develop a response everyone could support. Councilmember Butler returned to the meeting at 7:00 p.m. Julie B. pointed out everyone wants to be safe in the community. One way is to decrease interactions between law enforcement and the public, particularly with traffic stops. The 10/23/23 -3- DRAFT Implementation Committee has worked diligently with law enforcement and other Staff to create a shared concept to move forward with related to traffic stops and consent searches. Chief McDaniel has previously expressed concerns with certain recommendations made by the Implementation Committee, but those have been removed. Chief Kellace McDaniel is in full support of the proposed policies. Julie B. added community members have shown their concern for public safety time and time again. She implored the Council to approve the policies to promote community safety. The decision process isn't easy, but the Council has the responsibility to show up for what is right and do better. Councilmember Jerzak moved, and Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson seconded to close the Informal Open Forum at 7:02 p.m. Motion passed unanimously. 2. INVOCATION Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson shared a quote from William Faulkner, "Never be afraid to raise your voice for honesty and truth and compassion against injustice and lying and greed. If people all over the world would do this, it would change the earth." 3. CALL TO ORDER REGULAR BUSINESS MEETING The Brooklyn Center City Council met in a Regular Session called to order by Mayor April Graves at 7:02 p.m. 4. ROLL CALL Mayor April Graves, Councilmembers Marquita Butler, Kris Lawrence-Anderson, Dan Jerzak, and Teneshia Kragness. Also present were City Manager Reggie Edwards, Director of Fiscal and Support Services Angela Holm, Director of Public Works Elizabeth Heyman, Community Development Director Jesse Anderson, Planner and Zoning Administrator Ginny McIntosh, Police Chief Kellace McDaniel, Director of Community Prevention, Health and Safety LaToya Turk, Assistant City Manager and City Clerk Barb Suciu, and City Attorney Jason Hill. 5. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE The Pledge of Allegiance was recited. 6.

PRESENTATIONS/PROCLAMATIONS/RECOGNITIONS/DONATIONS 8. PUBLIC HEARINGS 10/23/23 -6- DRAFT 8a. RESOLUTION NO. 2023-95, 2023-96, 2023-97, 2023-98; CERTIFYING SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS FOR NUISANCE ABATEMENT COSTS, ADMINISTRATIVE FINES/ CITATIONS, TALL GRASS AND WEED ABATEMENT COSTS, AND DEAD DISEASE TREE ABATEMENT COSTS City Manager Reggie Edwards introduced the item and invited Community Development Director Jesse Anderson to make the staff presentation. Community Development Director Jesse Anderson explained that Minnesota law allows cities to recover costs of certain types of services through a special property assessment. The City incurs costs associated with these public service programs and activities. If unpaid, the costs may be specially assessed to the property. A public hearing is required. Mr. Anderson noted four Public Hearings scheduled for October 23, 2023, to consider certification of proposed special assessments. The Notice of Public Hearing was posted in the City's official newspaper, Sun Post, on September 28, 2023. All potentially affected property owners have been notified by mail of the date of the Public Hearing and the amount of the proposed special assessments. As of October 16, 2023, no formal appeals have been received by City staff. Mr. Anderson stated that when properties are found to be violating the code, a written compliance notice is provided to the owner of record. In addition to notifying the record owner, properties may be posted in some instances, or other responsible parties may be notified. A follow-up inspection is conducted to verify that the property was brought into compliance with the code. If compliance has not been achieved, the City will send additional notices, or Staff take corrective actions to remove the public nuisance or hazard, depending on the nature of the issue. Mr. Anderson pointed out that in the case of an abatement, the City bills the owner of record for the portion of costs the City incurred directly related to the abatement action. A service charge is applied to help recover administrative costs associated with the abatement process, such as time spent on inspections, notifications, invoicing, overhead, and the like. The costs of the abatements are recorded as pending special assessments, and this information is available to the public. Mr. Anderson pointed out there is an increased enforcement on unlicensed rental properties. Administrative citations were issued for operating without a rental license. For administrative citations and fines, an appeal process is prescribed by City Ordinance Chapter 18. Information about the appeal process and timeframes is provided with the citation. Mr. Anderson explained once an assessment roll is adopted by the Council, the owner of each property has two options. The first is to pay the entire amount of the special assessment, without interest, between October 24, 2023 and November 27, 2023. If payments are made with property taxes, the first payment will be due with taxes in 2024. The total principal will be payable in annual installments for the period stated on the levy roll, as indicated below. Interest of 3.5 percent is accrued on the unpaid balance. Based on feedback from the City Council, Staff discussed partial payments with Hennepin County staff. The County has stated that partial payments aren't accepted after an assessment is certified. However, they have granted Brooklyn Center permission to accept 10/23/23 -7- DRAFT partial payments before the assessments are certified to Hennepin County. Mr. Anderson noted these fees help recover some costs the City incurs related to services provided to specific properties. Special assessment fees are included in the general fund as revenue for accounting purposes. It is anticipated that these costs recovered through special assessments will be received in 2024, and are therefore included in the 2023 budget. The levy roll for administrative fines/citations totals $183,050. The levy roll for weed destruction totals $15,410. The levy roll for dead/diseased tree removal totals $27,157. Also, the levy roll for abatements totals $47,982.36. Mayor Graves moved, and Councilmember Jerzak seconded to open the Public Hearings concurrently. Motion passed unanimously. Carol L. explained he was speaking on behalf of her ill son. She and her family have always lived in Brooklyn Center. Her son leased his property through his ex-fiancé's mom and went to live with Carol L. The leasing agent isn't allowing the son to check in on the rental property. Since then, Carol L.'s son has been assessed with administrative and weed abatement. The leasing agent has been hiding the notices from Carol L.'s son. She asked the Council why Brooklyn Center and its Staff are being unhelpful. Ultimately, it is unfair for her son to be responsible for the abatements. Mayor Graves asked Carol L. to provide her contact information to Dr. Edwards. Carol L. noted she had left a voicemail for Mayor Graves that was unreturned. She thanked the Council for their time. Matt F. stated he has a special assessment for tall grass and an inoperable vehicle. The fine doubles if the violation isn't handled after the first violation. He explained he was having difficulty due to debt, and his house was foreclosed. The home was inherited from his mother after she passed. He acknowledged that he understood the initial citation and had been saving to address the concerns. However, doubling fines is burdensome, and his fines are around $9,000. Matt F. added an ex-girlfriend had left the inoperable car in his driveway. He has been unable to get in touch with her to obtain the title to do anything with the vehicle. He is still trying to find a solution to address the inoperable car. As for the grass, it has been maintained in recent months. Mayor Graves asked Matt F. to provide his contact information to the Staff. An attorney on behalf of Matt F. pointed out that the assessed amount tripled in 23 days. October 3, 2023, there was a fee of $3,000. The next citation was for $6,000; it is unclear if the total fee was $6,000 or $9,000. Mayor Graves asked if the tripling of the fine is a common practice. Mr. Anderson explained fees typically start at $125 or $300. A citation would follow two letters. After 30 days, the fee increases. The fees increase up to $2,000 per violation. 10/23/23 -8- DRAFT Mayor Graves asked for the Council to send a list of the fees and a Work Session to be scheduled to review the citation process. Mr. Anderson stated that the fines are part of the fee schedule, and the new fee schedule will be up for discussion before approval in the coming weeks. Councilmember Kragness asked if there is a way to stop the additional citations if the recipient contacts staff after receiving an earlier one to set up a payment plan. Mr. Anderson stated the citations aren't issued due to nonpayment, and there aren't any late fees. The citation is issued if the violation is still occurring. Staff typically grants extensions if requested. Alfreda stated she has heard concerns from other community members regarding the financial burden of the fees. COVID-19 has further crippled resident's financial capacity. Also, businesses have been unable to afford the required maintenance. People are calling Staff daily for help and not receiving any assistance. She asked if the City offers resources to help with the cost burden or if Staff could sit down with residents to explain the process and help. Councilmember Kragness moved, and Councilmember Jerzak seconded to close the concurrent Public Hearings. Motion passed unanimously. Mayor Graves pointed out the City has a program regarding home maintenance. She asked the Staff if there were other resources available. Mr. Anderson stated the City offers a grant program to help with home maintenance, but it has a long waiting list. Another program is where the City partners with an agency to offer a home repair loan with a lower interest rate. External organizations offer assistance such as handyman repairs. The information is all available on the City's website. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson moved, and Councilmember Jerzak seconded to adopt Resolution No. 2023-95, Certifying Special Assessments for Administrative citations to the Hennepin County Property Tax Rolls. Motion passed unanimously. Councilmember Jerzak moved, and Councilmember Butler seconded to adopt Resolution No. 2023-96, Certifying Special Assessments for Diseased Tree Removal Costs to the Hennepin County Property Tax Rolls. Motion passed unanimously. Councilmember Kragness moved, and Mayor Graves seconded to adopt Resolution No. 2023-97, Certifying Special Assessments for Weed Removal Costs to the Hennepin County Property Tax Rolls. Motion passed unanimously. 10/23/23 -9- DRAFT Councilmember Butler moved, and Councilmember Jerzak seconded to adopt Resolution No. 2023-98, Certifying Special Assessments for Abatements Costs to the Hennepin County Property Tax Rolls. Motion passed unanimously. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson asked for the City Council to be updated on conversations with Carol L. and Matt F. 8b. RESOLUTION NO. 2023-99; CERTIFYING SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS FOR DELINQUENT 2023 PUBLIC UTILITY SERVICE ACCOUNTS TO THE HENNEPIN COUNTY PROPERTY TAX ROLLS City Manager Reggie Edwards introduced the item and invited Director of Fiscal & Support Services Angela Holm to make the staff presentation. Director of Fiscal & Support Services Angela Holm explained that Minnesota law allows cities to recover costs of certain types of services through special property assessment. The City incurs costs of providing public utilities, typically recovered through user charges. If the user charges remain unpaid, the costs may be assessed to the property. A public hearing is required for the assessment. Ms. Holm pointed out that the City of Brooklyn Center certifies delinquent utility bills to Hennepin County annually. The certified bills become assessments on the property owner's property tax bill for the following year. Ms. Holm stated this process starts with a letter to the customer notifying them that their account is past due and that the amount will be certified against their property taxes. Bills of $400 or more are past due as of July 12, 2023. The letter details the process and the legal authority for certification. Recipients of this letter are advised they may dispute the charges at a public hearing. The public hearing's date, time, and location were published in the City's official newspaper. Customers who have not paid by the cut-off date in the letter, which is November 22, 2023, are included in the final assessment roll submitted to the County. Ms. Holm noted once the Council adopts an assessment roll, the owner has two options. First, the customer can pay the entire assessment amount without interest by November 22, 2023. Alternatively, the customer can pay the assessment with taxes in 2024 with interest accrued from December 1, 2023. The total principal and total interest is due in 2024. Current unpaid charges amount to $582,021.22. There are 597 unpaid accounts. Eighty-six percent of certifications are under $1,000. The amount is similar to the numbers in 2021. 2022 was much higher in terms of unpaid charges and accounts. Councilmember Jerzak moved, and Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson seconded to open the Public Hearing. 10/23/23 -10- DRAFT Motion passed unanimously. Melissa T. explained she has been facing economic issues since COVID-19 and is a single parent of children who are also struggling with financial and mental health issues. She asked if resources were available similar to those for heat utilities. Mayor Graves asked Melissa T. to provide her contact information to Staff for them to follow up. Devon W. asked if he could speak directly with Staff regarding his concerns. Mayor Graves asked the commenter to provide his contact information to Staff for them to follow up. Councilmember Jerzak moved, and Councilmember Kragness seconded to close the Public Hearing. Motion passed unanimously. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson moved, and Mayor Graves seconded to adopt Resolution No. 2023-99, Certifying Special Assessments for Delinquent Public Utility Service Accounts to the Hennepin County Property Tax Rolls. Motion passed unanimously. 8c. RESOLUTION NO. 2023-100; ORDERING IMPROVEMENTS AND AUTHORIZING PREPARATION OF PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS FOR IMPROVEMENT PROJECT NO. 2024-01, ORCHARD LANE EAST IMPROVEMENTS City Manager Reggie Edwards introduced the item and invited Director of Public Works Elizabeth Heyman to make the staff presentation. Director of Public Works Elizabeth Heyman introduced Principal Engineer Lydia Ener to continue the presentation. Principal Engineer Lydia Ener showed a slide with the process schedule thus far and an image of the project area. The projects include partial street reconstruction, which includes full-depth pavement replacement, miscellaneous repairs of concrete curb and gutter and driveway aprons, boulevard restoration, replacing catch basin castings as necessary within the project areas, and replacing or repairing catch basins and laterals where deteriorated or impacted by other utility work, replacing most of the main, along with the valves and hydrants, and lining of the sanitary sewer main, with spot replacements as necessary. Ms. Ener showed images of some of the streets. The pavement was last reconstructed in 1996. Roadway widths will remain at 30 feet. The curb was inspected, and there will be spot replacement as necessary. The existing storm sewer pipes are six to 12 inches and were constructed between 1956 and 1996. Xcel owns the existing lighting and exists at intersections and mid-blocks at approximately every 700 feet. 10/23/23 -11 - DRAFT Ms. Ener stated water main components were installed between 1956 and 1996, and existing pipes are six to 12 inches. Proposed improvements for the water main are replacing the older sections and hydrant and gate valve replacement. Ms. Ener noted that the sanitary sewer was installed between 1956 and 1996, and existing pipes are eight to 12 inches, with some larger collector pipes. Condition surveys were taken of sewers and manholes. The recommended sanitary sewer improvements include lining the main with spot replacements as necessary. Ms. Ener pointed out there will be some tree impacts from the project. The City's forester has reviewed the impacts. There will be removals of diseased trees and ash trees, some impacted by utility construction. Root cutting will be done where possible. Otherwise, there will be a one -to- one replacement of all removed trees. Ms. Ener added other impacts, including driveway impacts. Utility improvements and curb replacement will determine this. There will be saw-cutting for bituminous driveways and removal to the nearest joint for concrete. Also, sodding will be added to impacted areas. Ms. Ener explained to gather information from the public on the project before feasibility, a neighborhood open house was held on August 3, 2023. Invitations for the meeting were mailed to properties, and signboards were placed in the neighborhood before the meeting. The goal of the meeting was to provide project information to property owners and residents and gain input from the public on potential project upgrades. Each attendee was able to discuss how the project would impact their home. Some voiced concerns about driveway access during construction. Miscellaneous questions were asked about private utilities and the assessment process. All attendees seemed satisfied with having their questions answered, and many expressed interest in personal follow-up when construction begins. Ms. Ener stated in addition to the neighborhood meeting, surveys regarding the project and existing conditions were mailed to residents and made available online. Most survey responses indicated the properties had no flooding, sanitary, or water services issues. Overall, the resident responses did not favor additional sidewalks or street lighting. Ms. Ener pointed out that the second neighborhood meeting was scheduled for Thursday, October 19. Property owners were mailed invitations to the meeting. This meeting was a presentation style and provided additional information on action taken by the Council approving the Feasibility Report, the current progress of design, and will be an opportunity to provide more specific property impacts. In addition, the assessments included in the Feasibility Report were available to discuss with residents or answer questions. Questions were primarily on the assessment process, construction access, impacts, and timing. Ms. Ener stated the preliminary project is estimated to cost $11.8 million. About $1.5 million will come from assessments. The remaining funding is from utility fees and the street reconstruction plan. She noted corner lots are not assessed twice. 10/23/23 -12- DRAFT Ms. Ener stated that most properties fall under R1 and R2, and the assessment rate will be set at the November 13, 2023 meeting. The rate is based on the construction cost index. A typical R1 and R2 property will be assessed at approximately $4,015 per property. This was a 5.5 percent increase from the 2023 rate, accounting for $35 to $56 monthly payments. The interest rate will be 5.5 percent, based on the City bonding. Ms. Ener added R4, R5, R6, R7, commercial, and industrial properties costs are determined by project costs. The interest rate will be 5.5 percent, based on the City bonding. Ms. Ener pointed out options are to pay in full before September 30, 2024, pay in full or partial payment from October 1, 2024, to November 17, 2024, with interest starting on October 1, 2024, or to pay in installments with property taxes over a ten-year period starting in 2025, which would be with a 5.5 percent interest rate. Councilmember Butler asked what the City's responsibility is for the sod. Ms. Ener stated a sod letter will be sent to the homeowner with more information and best practices. The City is responsible for the first 30 days of the sod. There is an inspection of the sod at the end of the 30 days to ensure the installation was done correctly. Mayor Graves noted Brooklyn Boulevard looks very terrible due to the dead sod. She asked who was responsible for that sod. Ms. Ener offered for Staff to look into the warrant period. Ms. Heyman noted Brooklyn Boulevard is a County road. The City did take on maintenance responsibilities with the reconstruction project. She offered for Staff to look into options. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson asked if someone could pay a partial amount and then choose to have the rest added to the tax roll. Ms. Ener confirmed that was correct. The partial payment option is new to the process. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson asked what the previous interest rate was. Ms. Ener stated the previous interest rate was 3.5 percent. Councilmember Jerzak moved, and Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson seconded to open the Public Hearing. Motion passed unanimously. Adam stated everyone would like a copy of the presentation to review. He asked if the assessment could be higher than the $4,015 projection. Ms. Ener stated it is a conservative assessment so that it won't exceed $4,015. Once the amount is set, it won't be changed based on bids received or market conditions. She added she would add the presentation to the project website. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson asked for the presentation to be added to the City website. Ms. Ener stated the project website is within the City website. Councilmember Lawrence- Anderson asked for information on accessing the project website to be included in future 10/23/23 -13- DRAFT notification letters. Ms. Ener stated the letters have and will continue to have a QR code to access the project website. Councilmember Jerzak read an email from concerned parties, Carl and Morgan K., as they could not attend the Council meeting. They disagreed with assessments for basic City infrastructure as the tax dollars should already be allotted for such critical updates. They pointed to poor financial planning and urged the Council to find funding within the budget. Mayor Graves asked for the presentation to be sent to Carl and Morgan K. Councilmember Jerzak moved, and Councilmember Kragness seconded to close the Public Hearing. Mayor Graves moved, and Councilmember Jerzak seconded to adopt Resolution No. 2023-100, Ordering the Orchard Lane East Improvements, Improvement Project No. 2024-01, and Authorizing Preparation of Project Plans and Specifications. Motion passed unanimously. RECESS AND RECONVENE Mayor Graves called for a short recess at 8:13 p.m. The meeting reconvened at 8:22 p.m. 9. PLANNING COMMISSION ITEMS 9a. RESOLUTION FOR PLANNING COMMISSION APPLICATION NO. 2023-006, SUBMITTED BY AWC HOLDINGS LLC, FOR CONVERSION OF AN EXISTING TWO-TENANT BUILDING TO AN APPROXIMATELY 10,200-SQUARE FOOT RESTAURANT AND BAR (NIGHTCLUB) WITH 704-SQUARE FOOT OUTDOOR PATIO (5927 JOHN MARTIN DRIVE) Dr. Edwards introduced the item and invited Planner and Zoning Administrator Ginny McIntosh to continue the staff presentation. City Planner Ginny McIntosh reviewed a request for review and consideration of a proposal to convert the existing New King Buffet and former Tires Plus located at 5927 John Martin Drive into an approximately 10,200-square-foot restaurant and bar with approximately 1,200-square foot outdoor patio. The applicant is associated with Jambo Africa, a restaurant and bar located at 1601 Freeway Boulevard in Brooklyn Center, specializing in African cuisine. Their narrative notes that they will transfer "all restaurant operations from the current location, 1601 Freeway Blvd, to the new location, 5927 John Martin Drive." Ms. McIntosh showed images of the site. The site is approximately 1.36 acres and is currently zoned for transit-oriented development. Ms. McIntosh stated the property received site and building plan approval in 1979 under Planning 10/23/23 -14- DRAFT Commission Application No. 79035 for what was originally a Berger Brothers sporting goods shop. As originally contemplated, the building was to primarily serve as an approximately 8,820- square-foot retail shop, with approximately 1,425-square-foot feet of storage area. At the time, the Subject Property was zoned C2 (Commerce) District, which allowed for retail uses and contemplated 85 on-site parking spaces for the retail store. Ms. McIntosh noted that in 1991, the formerly single-use retail building received a proposal to convert into a two-tenant building when Tires Plus auto shop expressed interest in locating on the Subject Property and following the closure of Berger Brothers. Tires Plus ultimately took approximately 3,700 square feet of the property's west side, with the remaining 6,500 square feet available for a new user. The current Property Owner, Lin Shuang LLC, purchased the property in 2007. Tires Plus closed its location at the site last year, and the property was listed for sale shortly after that. Ms. McIntosh stated the property is centrally located within the City's designated approximately 80-acre Opportunity Site. A draft Opportunity Site Master Plan has been underway for several years, and the plans are to move toward a final adoption by the end of this year. In July 2021, the City of Brooklyn Center City Council adopted an Infrastructure Framework for the Opportunity Site, intended to serve as a proactive, guiding document focused on four core components within the 80-acre Opportunity Site. While the framework is intended to help inform decision-making, it was also designed to provide certain flexibilities dependent upon market conditions. Ms. McIntosh noted in 2022 that the City Council approved an approximately 16-acre Phase I redevelopment of the Opportunity Site under Planning Commission Application No. 2022-003— this phase is located south of the property. A proposed Garden Street is contemplated to run approximately between the property and 5939 John Martin Drive, which is owned by the City's Economic Development Authority (EDA), and south through additional lands owned by the City's EDA before connecting to a proposed public roadway extension approved as part of Phase I. Ms. McIntosh pointed out that the Infrastructure Framework specifically denotes John Martin Drive, which the Subject Property fronts, as a future "Main Street." While dependent on market conditions and receptivity of existing landowners, the Infrastructure Framework calls out a potential future road running near the driveway curb cut, which serves both the Subject Property and 5939 John Martin Drive, which the EDA owns. Ms. McIntosh stated that Staff initially met with the applicant in July 2023, when the building reflected a restaurant and bar use. Conversion triggers a Major Site and Building Plan Amendment process under Section 35-7605 because there would be a 25 percent or greater change in the floor area of the structure. Ms. McIntosh noted the Staff had a follow-up meeting with the applicant to discuss the application and planned submittal materials. Following the submittal of plans, City Staff determined the building to be a nightclub use, which requires a CUP. On August 16, 2023, the applicant's architect confirmed the use and began the CUP process. 10/23/23 -15- DRAFT Ms. McIntosh stated on September 9, 2023, Staff formally requested the applicant apply for a parking variance, address concerns and revisions, and a 60-day application extension. Staff received the variance application, fee, and supplemental information on September 13, 2023. On September 14, 2023, a public hearing was held for the building plan and CUP, but there was a request to continue the public hearing to October 12. Proper publishing was completed for the public hearing, which was held on October 12, 2023. Ms. McIntosh stated that the applicant outlines in their narrative that they would remodel the approximately 10,200-square-foot building for a restaurant and bar with a nightclub. There are no plans to alter the exterior of the building other than the removal of an existing loading door on the south elevation and the existing overhead bay doors used previously by Tires Plus on the west elevation, but those would be replaced with glass. This elevation would also feature an approximately 1,200-square-foot outdoor patio that would project approximately 17 feet out and be located just under 8 feet from the property line shared with 5939 John Martin Drive, which the City's EDA owns. Ms. McIntosh pointed out that access to the Subject Property is limited to the single shared curb cut located off John Martin Drive. As proposed, the existing curb cut and parking layout would remain. The only area proposed for modification, which would impact the existing site circulation, is the west elevation where the bay doors to the former Tires Plus are located. Installing the permanent patio would ultimately shift any vehicular traffic onto neighboring 5939 John Martin Drive, which the City's EDA owns. City Code outlines a minimum of 24 feet in width for drive aisles accommodating two-way traffic, and a minimum of 20 feet is required under the Minnesota Fire Code for fire access. Ms. McIntosh noted that determining the use and overall business function is crucial as it informs peak parking demands. Section 35-5502 (Off-Street Parking Requirements) provides that "off- street parking and loading spaces shall be provided in all multi-family residential, mixed-use, commercial, and industrial districts in accordance with the requirements of this Unified Development Ordinance." City Staff relayed concerns early on as to whether all minimum parking needs would be met on-site given the use and size of the establishment, and the applicant inquired about potential options for parking off-site, including surrounding EDA-owned property. Ms. McIntosh stated there are provisions within the City Code that allow for a development to reduce the required off-street parking spaces by up to fifty percent when it can be demonstrated in a parking-traffic study and prepared consistent with City standards and through the use of transit or demand management programs, noted unique characteristics, etc. A parking traffic study was not provided as part of the submittal. Section 35-5503 allows for a portion of required parking spaces to be located on an adjacent property if the parking area complies with the standards and as authorized in accordance with the approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP). Although shared parking is encouraged in instances where it may be mutually beneficial for multiple users, the City Code requires a burden of proof for a reduction in the total number of parking spaces. Ms. McIntosh added the property is surrounded on three sides by City EDA-owned property (5939 and 5915 John Martin Drive and approximately 5.5 acres of 5910 Shingle Creek Parkway). 10/23/23 -16- DRAFT HealthPartners Dental Clinic is located to the south; however, most of its on-site parking is located on yet another City EDA-owned property at 5900 Shingle Creek Parkway via a driveway and parking easement. Ms. McIntosh noted the applicant inquired as to whether off-site parking might be an option at the strip mall located to the northwest of the site and located at 6000 and 6050 Shingle Creek Parkway; however, these properties are part of a Reciprocal Easement Agreement with the neighboring former Target, located at 6100 Shingle Creek Parkway and also owned by the City's EDA. Said agreement provides shared parking and access between parcels with most parking on the Target site. Ms. McIntosh explained, as proposed, that no alterations would be made to the existing parking lot other than select re-striping. The submitted plans denote 80 available on-site parking spaces on the Subject Property. The original site and building plan approvals, as contemplated under Planning Commission Application No. 79035, identified 85 parking spaces; however, it appears five parking spaces were removed to accommodate a trash enclosure located at the southeast corner of the building and intended for the current restaurant use. Ms. McIntosh noted that City staff and the applicant disagreed regarding determining minimum parking needs for the Subject Property. The applicant's architect had operated under the assumption that the entirety of the use would have parking calculated assuming an "Assembly" calculation, which would assume a minimum of one parking space for every three seats per person, including any staff. In reviewing the provided occupancy load calculations for the space, a maximum occupant load of 240 persons would indeed require a minimum of 80 parking spaces; however, the occupant load numbers were adjusted with respect to the dining, patio, and dance floor areas to calculate occupancy based off the provided layout of the tables and seating, as opposed to the occupant load as calculated under Minnesota Building Code. Ms. McIntosh concluded assuming 80 on-site parking spaces, City staff ultimately determined that the property is likely deficient by 74 parking spaces and would, therefore, require a parking variance. A site plan is provided; however, no dimensions include parking space dimensions, drive aisle widths and alterations. As noted in the Assistant City Engineer's memo, it also appears that ADA parking is insufficient. Should additional ADA loading spaces be required, this may increase the overall parking deficiency. Ms. McIntosh pointed out that the photometric plan was submitted with the application submittal; however, the originally provided plan does not provide the detailing necessary to determine whether it meets the code provisions outlined under Section 35-5400. In response to a request for revised plans, the applicant provided an updated photometric plan and fixture specification on September 13, 2023. Ms. McIntosh noted that any photometric plan should demonstrate consistent illumination levels across the existing open-air parking lot and avoid pockets of very high or low illumination levels. Spot illuminations shall be provided to clearly demonstrate adherence to minimum and maximum illumination levels and uniformity, and a fixture schedule will be provided. 10/23/23 -17- DRAFT Ms. McIntosh added City staff had previously conveyed to the applicant that the existing pole and wall lighting on the property is non-conforming with respect to City Code requirements. Detail sheets were also requested of the applicant to demonstrate enhanced illumination overall primary building entrances or exits and any pedestrian pathways as outlined under Section 35-5401.m.2. Ms. McIntosh stated there are no plans to alter the exterior of the building except for adjustments to openings on the west and south elevations. As proposed and noted above, an existing loading dock door would be removed and patched to match the existing exterior. While the provided site plan notes this removal and patching, a detail sheet would be required for submittal as part of any building permit process. Ms. McIntosh pointed out that the west elevation currently features a series of garage bay doors that formerly served Tires Plus. As proposed, four garage bay doors would be removed and replaced with smaller, transom-style windows. The remaining sections below will be patched. Although this elevation notes the use of a "squared" concrete block to match the existing material, it appears the building material this elevation predominates is split rib or fluted concrete. City staff would request confirmation as it appears there is a squared or scored concrete block located in the section of the south elevation of the building. Ms. McIntosh explained that the remaining two garage bay doors would be replaced with operable glass doors leading out onto a proposed 1,200-square-foot outdoor patio. Said an eight-foot-high fence would surround the patio. City staff question the functionality of the proposed outdoor patio, as it appears the only access would be via the garage door. Additional safety concerns were raised in the letter addressed to the applicant on September 9, 2023, regarding the identified gates for exiting, as they would open out onto the parking lot and drive aisles. Ms. McIntosh stated the project submittal includes a landscape plan and detail sheet; however, no inventory of existing plantings and species or types was provided, and City staff could not conduct a full review. City Staff did make a formal request to the applicant for this additional information as part of a letter dated September 9, 2023. City staff provided the applicant with copies of the original and last revised landscape plans on file, as included with the preceding Planning Commission and City approvals on record from 1979 and 1991. Ms. McIntosh explained following a review of these plantings, which were all outlined on the original 1979 landscape plan schedule, Cit y staff requested the applicant replace the Japanese green leaf barberry with an alternate shrub, as the Minnesota DNR notes "Japanese Barberry" as a restricted planting with the propagation and sale of its numerous cultivars, including green barberry, noted as prohibited within the State of Minnesota. Ms. McIntosh added no specific signage requests were made as part of the Application submittal. Any new signage would be required to comply with the provisions outlined within Section 35- 6000. Ms. McIntosh stated James Soltis, Assistant City Engineer, reviewed the submitted site plan and provided a memorandum dated September 5, 2023. The memo was most recently revised on 10/23/23 -18- DRAFT October 5, 2023. There were questions regarding MN ADA compliance, potential impacts on the overall site circulation, and safety considerations for safely exiting the patio. Ms. McIntosh added Building Official Dan Grinsteinner conducted a cursory review of the proposal and worked with City staff to determine outlined and expected occupancy loads for the building and patio and with respect to the minimum required parking. A fire sprinkler and monitoring system is required for installation and must be maintained at all times, and sufficient fire hydrants shall be provided. Additional detailing will be required to provide access to a fire sprinkler room or wall connections. Ms. McIntosh pointed out City staff requests that, as part of any construction set review and in advance of any permit release, a CPTED (Crime Prevention through Environmental Design) review be completed by City staff. Ms. McIntosh stated they need to coordinate with the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MCPA) to address the abandonment of flammable interceptors and any potential regulations for conversion of use. City staff noted open permitting for above-ground tanks, per the MPCA website. Ms. McIntosh reiterated when City staff initially met with the applicant, where it was conveyed that the applicant intended to open a restaurant and bar at the property; however, the applicant's architect has come to agree with City staff's interpretation that there was a "nightclub" component and clarifying that, under building code, restaurants and nightclubs were in the same occupancy type category. They further agreed to apply for a Conditional Use Permit. Ms. McIntosh explained Conditional Use Permits, as outlined under Section 35-7700, are those uses that have been identified because of their nature, operation, location, special requirements or characteristics, and that may only be allowed in a particular zoning district after submittal of an application, review, and recommendation by the Planning Commission, and approval by the City Council. The Conditional Use Permit process regulates the location, magnitude, and design of conditional uses consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and this Unified Development Ordinance's regulations, purposes, and procedures. Ms. McIntosh pointed out that to qualify for a CUP, the conditional must be in accordance with the general objectives, or with any specific objective, of the City's Comprehensive Plan and this UDO. The site is within Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) and meets the objectives. Ms. McIntosh stated that the establishment, maintenance, or operation of the conditional use must promote and enhance the general public welfare and will not harm or endanger the public health, safety, morals, or comfort of other establishments. Similarly, the conditional use can not be detrimental to the use and enjoyment of other property in the immediate vicinity for the purposes already permitted, nor substantially diminish and impair property values within the neighborhood. Ms. McIntosh added that the CUP requires that the use will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of surrounding property for uses permitted in the district. Adequate measures must be taken to provide ingress, egress, and parking to minimize street traffic 10/23/23 -19- DRAFT congestion. Impacts such as noise, hours of activity, and exterior light must be sufficiently addressed to mitigate adverse impacts on nearby uses. Lastly, the conditional use must confirm the applicable regulations of the district. Ms. McIntosh explained variances may only be granted when the applicant for the variance establishes that there are practical difficulties in complying with the zoning ordinance. Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Section 462.357, subdivision 6, the City Council may only approve a variance where "practical difficulties" exist regarding strict compliance with the City's Unified Development Ordinance (UDO), and each criterion is satisfied. Ms. McIntosh pointed out that the criteria include that the variance is in harmony with the general purposes and intent of the City's Unified Development Ordinance, is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, the property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted by this Unified Development Ordinance, the plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to the property not created by the landowner, variance if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality. Ms. McIntosh noted the public hearing notice was published in the Sun Post on August 31, 2023, for the site and building plan and conditional use permit requests and September 28, 2023, for the variance requests. Mail notifications were sent to taxpayers and physical properties within 350 feet of the property. The public hearing notice was also published on the City website as a link. Ms. McIntosh stated, based on the findings and given the request by City staff in a letter to the applicant dated September 9, 2023, to apply for a parking variance, provision of additional information and revised plans, and the requested application extension. Ms. McIntosh pointed out that the applicant and project supporters were present at the October 12, 2023, public hearing. City staff did not receive other public comments. The Planning Commission engaged in a lengthy discussion of the proposed use. First, there was concern about aligning the proposed use with the City's Opportunity Site plans and adopted Infrastructure Framework, as the property is centrally located within the designated area. General inquiries were presented as to whether the applicant is on the same page with where the City is headed and if the applicant considered other locations. The Planning Commission expressed concerns about the proposed use already being technically beyond capacity and the inability for future expansion. Ms. McIntosh stated next that there were concerns about ADA parking deficiencies, as identified by Staff, and the justification for using Uber and Lyft to offset parking needs. There weren't details about where the services would be staged. Although Staff noted the 58-spot parking space deficiency, it was later determined the provided site plan falls short of minimum ADA-required parking. MN Accessibility Code requires a minimum of four ADA spaces rather than the two spaces presented. Ultimately, this results in a deficiency of 59 spots to accommodate a shared ADA loading space. Ms. McIntosh added the Planning Commission had concerns about snow removal and storage plans for the property, given the property is built out. The winter months would only exacerbate 10/23/23 -20- DRAFT the parking deficiencies. Also, there was a lack of any proposed investment into the exterior of the existing building other than some wall patching and two glass garage doors. The building is more than 40 years old, and there needs to be consideration for the accelerated deterioration of the building in the last few years. Ms. McIntosh stated safety concerns related to the egress and the proposed outdoor patio. Commissioner comments referenced past instances of restaurants and nightclubs where stampeding occurred during an emergency and if proper egress was provided. The Commission made inquiries to Staff as to whether they were comfortable with the plans. Ms. McIntosh noted there were inquiries on categorizing the "nightclub" use and whether the proposed use would confirm the City's noise regulations. Questions were also raised about the two glass doors needing to remain open to allow patio access. Ms. McIntosh pointed out the Planning Commission had concerns about the overall business operations and considerations for trash, safety, security, and sufficient lighting. Lastly, the Commissioners asked the City Attorney how tedious a revocation process would be for a CUP. Ms. McIntosh stated following the close of the public hearing, the Planning Commission elected to recommend (3-2) City Council approval of the requested site and building plan, DUP, and parking variance. Ms. McIntosh stated there are three options for the Council to consider. First is approval of the variance, CUP, and site and building plan. Second is the approval of the variance but denial of the CUP and site and building plan. Lastly, the Council can deny all components. Mayor Graves asked why the process was different than normal. City Attorney Jason Hill stated that the Staff wanted to avoid the need to prepare a resolution of approval and a resolution of denial, particularly in these instances where it is a tight vote. Also, to avoid any indication of what the Council would do, a decision has been made beforehand. He noted he had done a similar process in other cities not unique to Brooklyn Center. The Planning Commission will hold a public hearing and make a recommendation. The Council may direct Staff to prepare the appropriate resolution as long as the application is will within the 60-day time frame or the extension. The Council has already discussed the item and decided it will return to the next agenda as a consent item. There may be other language that needs to be added to the resolution. In short, the alternative process is for efficiency and clarity. Mr. Hill stated he recommends this process from now on for Planning Commission items. Mr. Hill stated the reason for the variances first is if the variance is denied, then the Conditional Use and Site and Building Plan become mute. If you don’t grant the variance, you won’t comply with the City Code for both of those. If you deny the variance, the other two items also go away. Mayor Graves asked what would happen alternatively with option number two. Mr. Hill stated denying the CUP and site and building plan would trigger a variance to be denied. Mr. Hill stated there are three applications for the Council to consider. There is a difference between the second 10/23/23 -21- DRAFT and third options for creating a record and for legal purposes, although the outcome is similar. Mayor Graves stated that options two and three are the same. Mayor Graves stated options two and three are basically the same thing. Mr. Hill stated they are not, and they are actually quite different. Mr. Hill stated there are three applications that you are looking at: A request for a Variance, a Request for a Conditional Use Permit, and a Request for a Site and Building Plan. You can approve or deny any of those. However, they are all contingent on each other. Councilmember Butler stated the Planning Commission approved the item with a 3-2 vote. It is a little unnerving as a City Council member as it is a new process, and we haven’t done this with other applications that have come before the Council. She added a lot of the comments that were extracted from the Planning Commission were negative comments. Some Commissioners voted for this, and where are the positive comments? She stated she felt like the Staff was preparing the Council for what Staff wanted to be done and not giving the applicant a fair shake. She asked if we worked with the applicant to get the application in a better place and what the rush was. Ms. McIntosh stated that the Staff first became aware of the project when the applicant was applying for a plumbing permit. The first initial discussion took place in July 2023. Through that discussion, Initially, it was proposed as a restaurant and bar use, which triggered a site and building plan requirement. Once Staff reviewed the interior layout of the site, it turned more into a nightclub use, the CUP process was triggered. Throughout that process, Staff was trying to pull additional information from the applicant. Specifically, what is the business plan operation? Staff cannot assume how this business is going to function. Ms. McIntosh pointed out during this discussion process the applicant reduced the patio's size, improving the parking deficiency. There isn't room to add more parking unless a trash enclosure is removed, allowing for five more spots. Ms. McIntosh agreed she shared the concerns of the Planning Commission, but she also shared the consistently positive comments during the public hearing. There is a lot of reliance on Staff figuring out issues along the way. For example, the lighting plan is lacking, but Staff would work with the applicant to bring the lighting in alignment with the code. Ms. McIntosh added it is extremely unusual to have such a close vote. Councilmember Jerzak summarized his previous professional experience working with the applicant and the building owner. He requested that he abstain from the vote in the interest of fairness. Mr. Hill stated there is no legal or financial obligation for Councilmember Jerzak to abstain from the vote, but it is his prerogative to abstain. Councilmember Jerzak confirmed he would abstain from the vote and the discussion. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson asked what the purpose of the glass door was. Ms. McIntosh stated the glass garage door is for patio access. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson stated the door is concerning due to the climate of Minnesota. 10/23/23 -22- DRAFT Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson pointed out two Commissioners were absent. Ms. McIntosh pointed out six Commissioners were present throughout the discussion, but only five were present for the vote. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson asked if the item could be returned to the Planning Commission to allow for a full commission vote. Mr. Hill stated it is not recommended the item be returned to the Planning Commission meeting. Still, the Council can table the item for further consideration by the Council. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson would like to review the Planning Commission recording to understand the discussion better. She asked how many restrooms are in the facility. Ms. McIntosh stated the bathrooms must meet Code requirements for the proper capacity. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson stated she is typically in favor of promoting businesses. Still, she had concerns about the proposal's alignment with the Opportunity Site, similar to the concern expressed by the Planning Commission. Councilmember Kragness asked if the Staff recommendation was in line with the vote of the Planning Commission. Mayor Graves stated that the Staff is not making a clear recommendation. Councilmember Kragess asked if all the items needed to be figured out were completed. Ms. McIntosh indicated they have not been completed. She noted that photometric plans and landscape plans are typically missing. Staff pointed out that the Conditional Use Permit for the nightclub use will open until 2 a.m., providing sufficient lighting for the front entrance space, the patio, and the back entrance space, which should be listed as conditions of approval. Mayor Graves asked what the issues are with the lighting. Ms. McIntosh stated two photometric plans have been submitted, but the Staff has not seen this type of photometric before. Therefore, the Staff doesn't understand the lighting plan well. Additionally, there are newer lighting requirements in Brooklyn Center due to recent Code changes. It calls out consistent and even lighting—a certain number of footcandles for entrances and exits for commercial and residential properties. This is a safety precaution as well. Mayor Graves moved, and Councilmember Butler seconded to Mayor Graves moved, and Councilmember Butler seconded to direct Staff to prepare a resolu- tion approving a variance as outlined in Planning Commission Application No. 2023-006 for the 59-space parking deficiency associated with the conversion of an existing two-tenant building to an approximately 10,200-square foot restaurant and bar (nightclub) with 704-square foot outdoor patio at 5927 John Martin Drive, and subject to the outlined conditions of approval. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson pointed out she doesn't want to interfere with the vision of the Opportunity Site. 10/23/23 -23- DRAFT Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson voted against the same. Councilmember Jerzak abstained from the vote. Motion passed. 10. COUNCIL CONSIDERATION ITEMS 10a. RESOLUTION APPROVING AN AMENDMENT TO THE COMMERCIAL LEASE AGREEMENT WITH PHU BIA LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1350B SHINGLE CREEK CROSSING Dr. Edwards introduced the item and invited Community Development Director Jesse Anderson to make the staff presentation. Mr. Anderson stated that 1350B Shingle Creek Crossing was a vacant shell space the City constructed when the municipal liquor store was built. The shell space is intended to provide brick- and-mortar space for small business owners while maintaining commercial affordability in Brooklyn Center. The EDA has approved a $70,000 commercial buildout loan to Phu Bia Produce LLC with the condition of executing a lease agreement between Phu Bia Produce LLC and the City of Brooklyn Center. The project scope included new flooring, painted walls, a walk-in cooler, and a brand-new bathroom. Before Phu Bia, the shell space was empty and under-utilized. Mr. Anderson stated the City of Brooklyn Center charges a base rate of fifteen dollars a square foot. The gross rent area is 3,500. The monthly rent collected from Phu Bia Produce LLC is $4,375, and the rent payment is due on the first of each month. Rent payments were to start on August 1, 2022. In lieu of no buildout allowance on the shell space, six and a half months were granted to Phu Bia Produce LLC to support cash flow and minimize startup expenses. Mr. Anderson pointed out Phu Bia faced many challenges relating to the store opening, including equipment availability, contractor issues, and limited knowledge of navigating the health department and city processes. Phu Bia recently received its certificate of occupancy and is now ordering products for its store. They have had difficulty paying rent and loan payments without an operating business. Now that they are close to opening, they anticipate being able to pay for their loan and lease going forward. Mr. Anderson noted as of October 17, Phu Bia has a lease with the City in which the business owes $65,625 in back rent and $2,250 in late fees. They also have a loan with the City and have paid $6,105 towards their loan. The past-due balance on the loan is $6,956.40. During a recent discussion with Mai Y Lor, the business owner, she stated she did not have the funds to pay the back rent and past-due loan payments. Also, Ms. Lor does not foresee the ability to add any additional money as a mitigation plan to the monthly expenses in the near future. However, she stated she would be able to start paying rent and the loan payments beginning November 1, 2023. Therefore, Staff has prepared a resolution modifying the loan and lease, stating their loan and lease payment would resume on November 1, 2023. The loan is not as far behind as their lease. It is a smaller dollar amount, and they did make a payment. Mr. Anderson stated alternative actions against the lease would include a 15-day notice of default, 10/23/23 -24- DRAFT and if not cured, the City can declare the lease terminated. The City could then immediately possess the premises, including personal property, equipment and fixtures. The City could commence an eviction action if the tenant remains on the premises. Also, the City could bring suit against the lessee for the amounts owed. Councilmember Jerzak stated he understands all the delays, some of them out of control of the business owner, but has several concerns about it being an ongoing business, and the word that comes to mind is a fragile business. There isn’t a lot of room for error. Also, I am concerned that they anticipate being able to pay the rent, and although there is no guarantee for any of us and hope that we are not prolonging the inevitable. If we forego the $65,000 that goes into the Revolving Loan Fund that provides loans to small businesses in the City. He stated it would be unfair to forego this amount of money as they are in a for-profit business. Councilmember Jerzak pointed out there has been staff turnover, and there may be an issue with the City not intervening sooner or offering more resources to the business. He cited issues with requirements due to the proximity to the Walmart building and the covenants of other like businesses. Has this been ironed out? This building is attached to the liquor store and was business to ultimately offset expenses for the new store because the money goes into the General Fund. Ultimately, it is a non-performing asset for the City. The business owner indicated there is no room to move this forbearance to the lease to make up some kind of payment so the City could get its money back. But if she is not open to that, he would have to make a hard decision to vote no. He stated he doesn’t like carve-outs, meaning separate agreements every time. The business owner entered into a good faith legal agreement, and what are our expectations for anyone else with one? Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson asked what the build was for the shell. Dr. Edwards stated the shell was an opportunity for micro-enterprise businesses at that time. It was part of a plan to subsidize startup businesses. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson stated that the shell was built to offset the costs of building the liquor store under Mayor Wilson. Mayor Graves noted her agreement with Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson stated she is uncomfortable forgiving $65,000 of taxpayer money. Dr. Edwards clarified subsidizing startup micro BIPOC businesses doesn't mean the revenue won't benefit the prior construction costs of the Liquor Store. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson stated we were creating a significant investment in our Liquor Stores, and while we were at this, we tacked on another building where we could rent it and make money. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson noted she would consider a forbearance but not outright forgiveness. Councilmember Butler noted her agreement with Dr. Edwards ' recollection of the purpose of the shell building. It seems like the City is setting the business up for failure, and it would be 10/23/23 -25- DRAFT irresponsible of the City to move forward with the current tenant and try to get some revenue from that space. It sounds like we have tried to work with them for a while without success. Councilmember Kragness pointed out there is no ensured positive outcome if the City retains the current tenant, which concerns her. Councilmember Jerzak asked if the business can stop investing more money. He doesn’t want to set them out for failure, and rather than going any farther, perhaps there is a negotiated settlement of exiting the lease amicable to both parties. Mr. Anderson stated there are products on the shelves, but he isn't sure what they can or cannot get out of purchasing. The owner also has a sign permit and has purchased coolers. Mayor Graves agreed this is a difficult issue, and she received a number of emotional calls from the owner several months ago. The mayor has discussed the issues with Staff a little. There may have been some issues with language barriers and understanding the business opening process. There were also issues where the owner was taken advantage of throughout the construction process by third parties. She indicated she felt bad because she was very excited about the space and the opportunity for the City. Mayor Graves stated the shell space is a great idea and a wonderful opportunity for the City to promote small businesses. She added the City can do more to better support small businesses, such as Phu Bia, and noted Brooklyn Center had lost Staff, which could have helped in the situation. Councilmember Jerzak moved, and Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson seconded not to adopt a resolution approving an amendment to the commercial lease agreement with Phu Bia limited liability company for property located at 1350B Shingle Creek Crossing and enter into negotiations to make good on the outstanding debt. Motion passed unanimously. 10b. RESOLUTION DIRECTING THE ADOPTION OF TRAFFIC STOP AND CONSENT SEARCH POLICIES FOR THE BROOKLYN CENTER POLICE DEPARTMENT Dr. Edwards introduced the item and invited the Director of the Office of Community Prevention, Health and Safety, LaToya Turk and Police Chief Kellace McDaniel to make the staff presentation. Ms. Turk explained in May 2021, the City Council of the City of Brooklyn Center adopted Resolution No. 2021-73, a resolution adopting the Daunte Wright and Kobe Dimock-Heisler Community Safety and Violence Prevention Act . Since February 28, 2022, the Implementation Committee has conducted regular meetings and worked with experts to gather data and consider City Code amendments, ordinances, resolutions, policies, and guidelines concerning public health- oriented approaches to community safety. In September 2022, the Committee developed and prepared policy recommendations regarding traffic stops and consent searches. 10/23/23 -26- DRAFT Ms. Turk pointed out that in June 2023, Staff made recommendations to the City Council regarding traffic stops and consent searches based upon a review of the recommendations made earlier by the Implementation Committee. Following the Staff's presentation, the Council directed Staff to bring back a resolution adopting a policy for traffic stops and consent searches based upon Council discussion consensus during the June meeting. Ms. Turk stated it was the consensus of Staff to separate traffic stops and consent searches in the subject matter. Also, it was determined that regulation for traffic stops and consent searches was controlled by policy rather than ordinance. Ms. Turk noted the traffic stop policy states law enforcement officers will use alternative traffic enforcement for original causes as the sole reason for minimum and moderate safety risk traffic stops. However, officers may stop a vehicle for original causes as the sole reason alone that they are high-risk traffic stops. Chief McDaniel showed a table of traffic stop safety ratings. He stated when the police department was given this exercise, he and the Commanders put them in categories and talked about the minimum, moderate, and maximum safety ratings. Chief McDaniel stated it is difficult for a Chief to tell his officers not to enforce certain State laws, as this policy would force him to do. He added he does discipline every day based on the actions of the officers. He would continue the presentation, but he is not comfortable implementing these policies. He added there are ways to do a teaching aspect for alternative traffic enforcement, but the ultimate training of law enforcement is to keep the community safe. Mr. Hill stated that based on findings and studies conducted by the Committee and City staff, the recommended regulation of the initiation of traffic stops and consent searches is in accordance with the goals of the Daunte Wright and Kobe Dimock-Heisler Community Safety and Violence Prevention Act. The regulations should be enacted through the adoption of policies rather than ordinances, and standalone policies should be incorporated into the Brooklyn Center Police Department Policy Manual. In order to allow for training and education timing, the effective policy date would begin in March 2024. The proposed resolution also requires the Council to make any amendments to the policy. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson stated she would like Chief McDaniel to be present when the Council meets with the Implementation Committee. She explained she supports most of the components, but a joint conversation with all parties is required for negotiations. She would like the City Council, Implementation Committee, Community, and Police Department. The Implementation Committee has worked very hard, and she wants to make sure the policies are properly written and implemented. Councilmember Jerzak noted his agreement with Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson. He noted his preference to table the item until the Council meets with the Implementation Committee and to allow the Council to better understand the concerns of the Police Chief. 10/23/23 -27- DRAFT Councilmember Jerzak pointed out he would prefer the restrictions be made at the State level to allow for consistency in conduct by all law enforcement agencies. Councilmember Butler stated she isn't opposed to allowing Councilmembers more time to consider the recommendation, though it is disappointing to hear that some Councilmembers aren't ready to implement the recommendation. She noted her appreciation of the comments made by Chief Kellace. Brooklyn Center has the opportunity to reimagine what public safety looks like. At the start of the process, the City was praised for its innovation, but it has failed to come to fruition thus far. Growing pains are expected, but the Council must make the tough calls. The process has already taken too long. Councilmember Kragness stated she isn't comfortable with the recommendations due to the hesitancy noted by Chief McDaniel. She added that she has empathy for the community but does not want to be forced into making a decision that she doesn't feel is the right decision. Councilmember Jerzak asked if the Council could have a consensus on a hard date of when the decision is going to be made. The process has taken a long time, and the Council needs to respect the Implementation Committee. Mayor Graves stated the present meeting was meant to be the hard date for a decision. Mayor Graves pointed out there are some things the Council isn't going to agree upon. Similarly, the community likely has a very different perspective on policies than law enforcement does. She explained how the consent decree was implemented in Minneapolis. She would like to see a pretextual stop policy more similar to the one created in Minneapolis in conjunction with the Department of Human Rights. Mayor Graves read a quote from the Stanford Law Review regarding pretextual stops and racial profiling. Pretextual stops are not a violation of the Fourth Amendment. Data shows a statistically significant disparity in pretextual stops between White people and BIPOC. However, the burden of proof is on the victim to show that law enforcement targeted someone based on race rather than traffic violations. Mayor Graves asked if it is generally safer for someone with a broken taillight to drive around or for someone to potentially be racially profiled. She stated she and her loved ones have experienced racial profiling. The City has the opportunity to do better. Mayor Graves stated some law enforcement may be hesitant, but that is to be expected when people are told to do something they are not used to. It seems as though the argument may be about power and control rather than safety. Mayor Graves read the Fourth Amendment aloud. The presentation by Staff was a compromise between multiple parties. The policy prohibits people from being harassed, and it doesn't prohibit law enforcement from enforcing actual safety concerns. 10/23/23 -28- DRAFT Mayor Graves read another quote about warrants, probable cause, and consent to expose one's privacy. Many people do not know they have a Constitutional right to deny consent searches. Consent searches are very likely to be coerced. Probable cause gives permission for law enforcement to search based on the likelihood of productivity. Consent searches have no well- founded justifications for a search. Law enforcement should be promoting the Fourth Amendment rather than trying to get around it. Mayor Graves stated she isn't going to call for a vote because it doesn't sound like the policy will pass based on the previous comments of the Council. It is unlikely that law enforcement will compromise more than they already have. The Staff's presentation is the product of countless conversations among Staff, Council, and community members. Dr. Edwards noted the consensus of the Council was to not take a vote. He suggested tabling the item until after the Council has an opportunity to meet with the Implementation Committee. Mayor Graves pointed out the community is clear on its preference. The lack of clarity is due to law enforcement's support of the policy. She stated the Council needs to speak directly with law enforcement leadership. Dr. Edwards stated that Staff can vet the policy more and bring it back to the Council, but the Staff feels it has already completed that step. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson stated she wants to be present in the room where the discussions are happening because she is a decision-maker. Councilmember Jerzak noted his agreement with the comments of Councilmember Lawrence- Anderson. He stated he was taken aback by the comments made by Chief Kellace during that evening's meeting. Councilmember Jerzak pointed out he has no desire to kill the policy, but he needs to hear the concerns of law enforcement directly. Mayor Graves pointed out she has consistently kept her door open to meet with law enforcement. She hasn't felt welcome to do the same with law enforcement. The matter is meant to improve safety for all and not be adversarial. Dr. Edwards stated there is a process for the Council to engage with the various Departments, which is for the Council to make requests of Staff and for Staff to return to the Council with the request completed. He offered to facilitate a conversation between the Council and all relevant Staff. He would gather the availability of the Staff and Implementation Committee and return to the Council with potential meeting dates. He pointed out the entire Council won't be back together again until mid-December. Mayor Graves requested the meeting have proper representation from law enforcement leadership. Mayor Graves moved, and Councilmember Butler seconded to table consideration of a resolution adopting traffic stop and consent search policies for the Brooklyn Center police department. 10/23/23 -29- DRAFT Motion passed unanimously. 11. COUNCIL REPORT None. 12. ADJOURNMENT Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson moved, and Mayor Graves seconded the adjournment of the City Council meeting at 10:00 p.m. Motion passed unanimously. 11/13/23 -1- DRAFT MINUTES OF THE PROCEEDINGS OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BROOKLYN CENTER IN THE COUNTY OF HENNEPIN AND THE STATE OF MINNESOTA STUDY SESSION NOVEMBER 13, 2023 CITY HALL – COUNCIL CHAMBERS CALL TO ORDER The Brooklyn Center City Council met in a Study Session called to order by Mayor Pro Tem Marquita Butler at 6:03 p.m. ROLL CALL Mayor Pro Tem Marquita Butler and Councilmembers Kris Lawrence-Anderson, Dan Jerzak, and Teneshia Kragness. Mayor April Graves was absent. Also present were City Manager Reggie Edwards, Assistant City Manager/City Clerk Barb Suciu, and City Attorney Jason Hill. CITY COUNCIL DISCUSSION OF AGENDA ITEMS AND QUESTIONS Mayor Pro Tem Butler asked if there were any questions regarding the agenda or agenda items. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson requested the removal of Regular Session Consent Agenda Item 6a—approval of Minutes from the agenda for further review. Councilmember Jerzak requested Consent Agenda Item 6c. Resolution Regarding Planning Commission Application No. 2023-006, Submitted by AWC Holdings LLC, for Conversion of an Existing Two-Tenant Building to an Approximately 10,200-square restaurant and Bar (Nightclub) and 704-square outdoor Patio (5927 John Martin Drive), be removed from the Consent Agenda and added to Planning Commission Items as 9b. Resolution Regarding Planning Commission Application No. 2023-006, Submitted by AWC Holdings LLC, for Conversion of an Existing Two-Tenant Building to an Approximately 10,200-square restaurant and Bar (Nightclub) and 704-square outdoor Patio (5927 John Martin Drive). MISCELLANEOUS Councilmember Jerzak noted his disagreement with correspondence received from Phu Bia. He doesn’t believe the Council wanted Staff to negotiate a payment plan. Even if that were true, the Council should have reviewed any payment plan before agreeing. City Manager Reggie Edwards stated the motion before the Council was to amend the lease 11/13/23 -2- DRAFT agreement to waive the $65,000. The Council was opposed to amending the agreement or waiving the $65,000. Then, staff determined a payment plan was the best option to get the $65,000. The Council didn’t want the business to fail or to receive a payment of less than $65,000. Councilmember Kragness stated the business previously said they couldn’t come up with any more money. She asked if the $65,000 was paid. Dr. Edwards explained staff worked with the business to pay the $65,000 over time. Councilmember Kragness asked why the Council didn’t have an opportunity to approve the payment plan. Dr. Edwards stated the Council denied amending the agreement or waiving the $65,000. The Council asked staff to obtain a method to receive $65,000, and there wasn’t a policy issue to bring back to the Council. Instead, staff completed the direction of the Council. Councilmember Jerzak stated he made the original motion, and it was clear. He understood that a legal process would begin if the loan were to default. There is no sense in going after personal guarantees. His expectation was for Phu Bia to be treated like any other business. He asked if the Council was misled to believe the business owner couldn’t afford additional monthly payments. Dr. Edwards stated he listened to the recording of the meeting in question. The motion made by Councilmember Jerzak was specific not to forgive the past due amount and directed staff to reach an agreement with the business owner. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson stated her perspective was that the debt would not be forgiven, and the eviction process was to begin. She wants the Council to be involved in whatever payment plan is in place. She asked how the business could afford a payment plan suddenly. Councilmember Jerzak noted his agreement with Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson. He hoped for the default to be cured and avoid any punitive action. Councilmember Kragness stated she is concerned for the business and doesn’t want the City to set them up to fail. The owner indicated they couldn’t afford additional payments, and she didn’t want to encourage the owner to pour more money into a failing business. Councilmember Jerzak explained that although he stands by what he said, he would consider the payment plan if the Council could review the plan. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson stated she wants the Council to review the payment plan structure. It was concerning that the business was allowed to default in the amount of $65,000 under the supervision of staff. Dr. Edwards suggested staff return to the Council with the payment plan and its details. He requested that the Council allow staff to do the work they are directed to do. 11/13/23 -3- DRAFT Mayor Pro Tem Butler explained the Council seemed to be on the same page, but she understands how Dr. Edwards could have come to his conclusion. She wants the business to thrive but also to recoup the money. It is unlikely the City would see the money through an eviction process. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson stated because the Council was uninformed about missing payments for several months, they must be involved in the payment plan process. The staff didn’t perform adequately. Councilmember Kragness added if there was potential for a payment plan with the business, it should have been done before the issue was brought to the Council for a vote. The Council believed all other options besides eviction had been exhausted. Councilmember Jerzak noted his agreement with Councilmember Kragness. He insisted on the implementation of the consensus of the Council. Mayor Pro Tem Butler stated the Council wants the Council to approve the payment plan during a public meeting formally and then regular updates on the payment plan. Councilmember Kragness stated the process is abnormal because the ball was dropped multiple times in the process already. Dr. Edwards stated the business likely felt pressure to consider alternative options they hadn’t considered after the Council wasn’t willing to forgive the loan. It doesn’t mean the Staff wasn’t diligent in their responsibilities. Councilmember Kragness added the business may have come off as disingenuous. It was the consensus of the Council to approve the payment plan during a public meeting and then regular updates on the payment plan. Councilmember Jerzak stated he is confused about the staff’s ability to make recommendations with variable reasoning. The Council needs to rely on staff’s recommendations due to their expertise. He referenced waiving the necessary 59 parking spaces from a development project. He asked for clarity on why Staff cannot make recommendations. Dr. Edwards explained staff doesn’t generally provide recommendations. It is their role to provide options and related pros and cons. The staff doesn’t want to bias the procedure in any way to allow the Council to make a decision based on neutral presentations. If the Council asks for recommendations, staff may return to the Council with an additional presentation as appropriate. Dr. Edwards added that staff tries to avoid political spaces as it isn’t their role. Dr. Edwards stated the options related to the parking spots were presented as a way to improve the development process. They wanted the Council to be aware of all options. City Attorney Jason Hill noted any application received by the City will ultimately be brought up 11/13/23 -4- DRAFT to the Council. The Planning Commission has a legal obligation to make a recommendation to the Council for items they review. The staff has to bring the item to the Council, whether or not they support the application. Planning Commission items are initially presented to the Council in an informational format before requiring a final yes or no vote. It allows for more discussion and questions to be addressed. The informational formatted item usually results in the Council directing Staff to prepare a resolution approving or denying the application. If unanimous, the resolution may be added to the Consent Agenda. Otherwise, it would be on the Regular Session agenda for discussion. Councilmember Jerzak stated the item was on the Consent Agenda. Mr. Hill stated it was not a Consent Agenda item. Councilmember Jerzak stated he is still befuddled with the new process and wishes it was explained more fully to the Council. As for the parking variance, approving the request would set an inappropriate precedent. The lack of parking would ultimately lead to police issues. There were other issues with the application as well. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson noted her appreciation that the Staff doesn’t want to bias the Council. However, the City hired professionals in their respective fields, and the Council expects to hear their professional recommendations. She has been on the Council for 11 years, and Staff has always given their input when asked. Therefore, she requested Consent Agenda Item 6c. Resolution regarding Planning Commission Application No. 2023-006, Submitted by AWC Holdings LLC, for Conversion of an Existing Two-Tenant Building to an Approximately 10,200-square restaurant and Bar (Nightclub) and 704-square outdoor Patio (5927 John Martin Drive) be removed from the Consent Agenda. They are added to Planning Commission Items as 9b. Resolution regarding Planning Commission Application No. 2023-006, Submitted by AWC Holdings LLC, for Conversion of an Existing Two-Tenant Building to an Approximately 10,200- square restaurant and Bar (Nightclub) and 704-square outdoor Patio (5927 John Martin Drive). Councilmember Kragness agreed she relies on the expertise of Staff in the voting process. Staff should disclose any potential issues to the Council during presentations. Mayor Pro Tem Butler agreed she didn’t appreciate how the item was handled in the previous meeting. If staff is going to change processes on how they handle presentations, it should first be discussed in a Work Session. ADJOURNMENT Mayor Pro Tem Butler adjourned the Study Session at 6:34 p.m. 11/13/23 -1- DRAFT MINUTES OF THE PROCEEDINGS OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BROOKLYN CENTER IN THE COUNTY OF HENNEPIN AND THE STATE OF MINNESOTA REGULAR SESSION NOVEMBER 13, 2023 CITY HALL – COUNCIL CHAMBERS 1. INFORMAL OPEN FORUM WITH CITY COUNCIL CALL TO ORDER INFORMAL OPEN FORUM The Brooklyn Center City Council met in an Informal Open Forum called to order by Mayor Pro Tem Butler at 6:45 p.m. ROLL CALL Mayor Pro Tem Marquita Butler and Councilmembers Lawrence-Anderson, Dan Jerzak, and Teneshia Kragness. Mayor April Graves was absent. Also present were City Manager Reggie Edwards, Director of Fiscal & Support Services Angela Holm, Community Development Director Jesse Anderson, Planner and Zoning Administrator Ginny McIntosh, Director of the Office of Community Prevention, Health and Safety LaToya Turk, Assistant City Manager/City Clerk Barb Suciu, and City Attorney Jason Hill. Mayor Pro Tem Butler opened the meeting for the Informal Open Forum. Isaac C. introduced himself as Director of Governmental Affairs for the National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals. He stated there are 100 chapters throughout the United States, and he is part of the Twin Cities chapter. They champion homeownership for Hispanic folks throughout the Metro area. Participants do not need to be Spanish-speaking or Latinx to be part of the chapter. Instead, they are looking for allies and partners that support the mission. He shared statistics about the growing Hispanic homeownership group. He shared copies of the report with the Council. The Council should consider the statistics when making housing policy and development decisions. Family and economic prosperity are highly valued in the Latinx community, which makes the community so powerful. Carol L. pointed out she previously spoke to the Council regarding 5936 Fremont Avenue North, which belongs to her son. There were issues with the signed leasing agent, and her son has received fines due to the leasing agent’s negligence. He has already had to pay for the rental license independently, and additional charges are added to the property taxes. Her son is working two jobs with open abscesses on his back to afford the additional charges. The leasing agent has been fired, but her son has to work on some repairs to the property before he can make any money on it, be it through a sale or renting. Jeff L. explained he tried to attend the public meeting on November 9, 2023. However, he was denied entrance by intervenors. He was brought to a separate room with a TV to view the meeting, 11/13/23 -2- DRAFT but the audio and visual components were poor. The behavior of the intervenors was appalling and aggressive. One of the intervenors wore a face mask and refused to identify himself. The intervenors did not promote a safe environment. Jeff L. stated he thinks the City violated open meeting laws. He asked if the City employed the intervenors. He asked who gave them the authority to keep people out of an open meeting. He asked who was responsible for overseeing the intervenors. He asked how much the City is paying the intervenors. The intervenors should not be allowed to serve in such a capacity. Jeff L. pointed out that the City already has limited financial resources, and they should not embark on social experiments with taxpayer money. He read statistics on the property taxes paid in various suburbs, and Brooklyn Center was the highest. Jeff L. added it is inappropriate for the Council to direct law enforcement to violate State and Federal laws. Julie B. noted she asked for accommodations for the open forum as standing at the podium isn’t a healthy option for her. She thanked Dr. Edwards for his assistance. She offered extra seeds from her garden. Julie B. explained she wrote a letter to the Council but wanted it to be reflected on the record. She read the letter from her phone. The letter was regarding November 9, 2023. She thanked staff and the Council for creating a safe space for the participants to discuss and get to the heart of the issue. The work has been difficult and scary. She has had to hire private security to attend public meetings with her, and she has had to put her daughter in safe houses since participating in the Implementation Committee. Julie B. acknowledged she asked for no media to be present at the meeting and for intervenors to be present at the meeting to help her feel safer. People trying to force themselves into the meeting was frightening. If her daughter had been present, it would have also been frightening for her. Many community members have been approached and made to feel unsafe in the community, including in their own homes. Overall, it was one of the first meetings she had attended in the City that she felt safer. Mayor Pro Tem Butler noted it was 7:02 p.m., but an individual has been waiting to comment since the beginning of the Informal Open Forum. She asked if the Council was comfortable extending the time to allow the commenter to speak. The Council agreed. Alfreda D. pointed out there is a difference in how different Staff are received by the Council when presenting, particularly Black Staff members. The disrespect is clear to the greater community. She asked if the Council has any accountability measures to address the disrespect issue. Alfreda D. added she attended a recent Council meeting on behalf of Jambo Africa. A certain Councilmember abstained from the vote. She stated she has a video recording from a few years ago of the same Councilmember vowing to get Jambo Africa shut down and prevent them from 11/13/23 -3- DRAFT conducting business in the City. The City will be sued if the Councilmember votes against Jambo Africa’s application. Councilmember Kragness moved, and Councilmember Jerzak seconded to close the Informal Open Forum at 7:02 p.m. Motion passed unanimously. 2. INVOCATION Mayor Pro Tem Butler acknowledged veterans and their service to the Country. The Veteran’s Day event was well-received, though she could not attend. Mayor Pro Tem Butler pointed out it is Native American Heritage Month. She read a statement about Native American history. All year long, the origin of the United States should be considered. She read a quote from Indigenous leader Sharice Davids, “Strong alliances can thrive even where disagreements exist, but they cannot thrive where free and open communication is shut down.” 3. CALL TO ORDER REGULAR BUSINESS MEETING The Brooklyn Center City Council met in a Regular Session called to order by Mayor Pro Tem Butler at 7:04 p.m. 4. ROLL CALL Mayor Pro Tem Marquita Butler and Councilmembers Lawrence-Anderson, Dan Jerzak, and Teneshia Kragness. Mayor April Graves was absent.

PRESENTATIONS/PROCLAMATIONS/RECOGNITIONS/DONATIONS 7a. 2024 RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS CITY COUNCIL PRESENTATION City Manager Reggie Edwards introduced the item and invited the Office of Community 11/13/23 -7- DRAFT Prevention, Health and Safety Director LaToya Turk to continue the Staff presentation.

The focus is to honor Brooklyn Center community members who make the City a wonderful place to live and work. Ms. Turk noted the additional nomination options, enhanced media promotion, community engagement efforts, communications efforts, and additional invitations significantly increased the number of nominations received by the City.

PLANNING COMMISSION APPLICATION NO. 2023-007, SUBMITTED BY 7100 BROOKLYN BLVD LLC, FOR CONVERSION OF A FORMER CREDIT UNION AND OFFICE BUILDING INTO A 17-UNIT MULTI-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL BUILDING AND RELATED IMPROVEMENTS (7100 BROOKLYN BOULEVARD) Dr. Edwards introduced the item and invited City Planner and Zoning Administrator Ginny McIntosh to continue the Staff presentation. Planner and Zoning Administrator Ginny McIntosh explained 7100 Brooklyn Blvd. LLC is requesting review and consideration of a proposal to convert a former credit union and office building located at 7100 Brooklyn Boulevard into a 17-unit multi-family residential building. According to Hennepin County records, the property was sold to the current owner in March 2023. Section 35-7605 that a significant amendment to an approved site and building plan shall be 11/13/23 -10- DRAFT triggered under specific outlined scenarios, including a “20 percent or greater change in the number of residential units.” A review of a significant amendment under the City’s Unified Development Ordinance shall follow the procedure for issuing a new site and building plan approval. This threshold is triggered as the proposal would result in a 100-percent change in the number of residential units. Ms. McIntosh showed images of the site and the views from the site. At one point, the property was the Brooklyn Center City Hall. In 1985, there was approval for a site and building plan and a special use permit for construction of a two-phase office building development. The second building was never built. True mixed-use districts were not in place until the adoption of the City’s UDO, but the former code did allow for limited non-residential uses within its higher-density multi-family residential districts. Ms. McIntosh stated the office uses were limited to lower intensity C1 uses such as financial, employment, legal offices, and medical offices. The general sense was that limited office uses were permitted through special use permits where their intensities would not conflict with multi-family residential users. The subject property was rezoned in January 2023 for multi-family residential and commercial uses. Ms. McIntosh pointed out City Staff worked with the former owner and new owner in early 2023 to prepare an access easement and utility facilities agreement to ensure the City had access to the stormwater pond. Ms. McIntosh stated the proposed 17-unit multi-family residential building would have limited alterations to the property's exterior. The proposal falls within density allowances and is actually on the lower end. The proposal is in line with the City’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan. The unit mix would include five studios, 11 one-bedroom, and one two-bedroom. She showed an image of the site and building plan. Ms. McIntosh stated the proposed conversion from the existing office building use to multi-family residential would result in limited impacts on the existing exterior areas of the Subject Property. Although there are plans to remove an existing standalone ATM located at the western edge of the property, re-stripe and remove certain parking within the surface parking lot, and install a new, expanded trash enclosure along the eastern edge of the property, almost all work would be contained to the interior of the building. Ms. McIntosh added there are no plans to alter the existing curb cut, which is located off the east side of Brooklyn Boulevard and provides full vehicular access to and from the Subject Property. Similarly, there are no significant plans to alter the existing surface parking lot and circulation, given that most work would be contained to the interior of the former office building. Ms. McIntosh pointed out a multi-use trail currently runs parallel to the property line of the Subject Property and along Brooklyn Boulevard. The 723 Metro Transit bus line provides service at stops just off the property, with service by the 761 line to the north. Following communication with City Staff, the applicant revised their plans to incorporate a bike rack to the east side of the building. 11/13/23 -11 - DRAFT Ms. McIntosh stated the property appears to have 64 parking spaces available to date, although some of the parking spaces appear too narrow for parking purposes. As proposed, the applicant intends to remove five parking spaces located just outside the doors located on the east side of the building to allow for the turning movements necessary for a garbage truck and the bike rack and an additional five parking spaces at the northeast end of the parking lot to accommodate the new trash enclosure. The City’s Unified Development Ordinance, as outlined under Section 35-5506, notes a maximum provision of two parking spaces per dwelling unit in multi-family residential situations. Assuming 17 dwelling units, a maximum of 34 parking spaces is required per Code. Ms. McIntosh noted that the submitted plans denote a total impervious surface coverage of 76 percent, which falls below the City’s newly outlined maximum impervious coverage of 80 percent for Neighborhood Mixed- Use District properties. As the property is non-conforming with respect to setback regulations and parking lot placement as outlined under the Neighborhood-Mixed Use District provisions, City Staff would welcome future opportunities to provide residents with additional outdoor amenity space. Ms. McIntosh pointed out, as demonstrated in the submitted plans, that the minimum drive aisle widths and dimensional standards outlined within Section 35-5504 appear to be met. To manage parking and as part of the plan updates, the Applicant also intends to provide dedicated parking space for each unit and to manage parking. Ms. McIntosh explained that an original photometric plan submitted as part of the October 12, 2023 report contained a number of deficiencies with the lighting requirements as outlined under the City Code for open-air parking lots, fixture types, and illumination levels concerning the neighboring uses. In response to City Staff comments, the applicant worked with a different lighting contractor to revise the lighting plans per City Code requirements. Any and all lighting and fixtures shall comply with City Code provisions as outlined under Section 35 -5400. The revised plans generally fall within the allowable open-air parking lot illumination levels permitted under the City Code. Similarly, the proposed light poles are noted as 20 feet in height, which falls within the maximum allowable pole heights, and the wall fixtures have since been revised from wall packs, which are not permitted except for service/loading areas, to LED wall sconces. Ms. McIntosh added that the illumination levels along the building have also since been reduced following City Staff concerns regarding excessive lighting and potentially negative impacts on abutting single-family residential properties. Given the proximity of single -family residential to the north, it is important that any and all lighting limits glare and light spill into the backyards of these properties. Although the wall fixtures generally meet the minimum illumination levels for primary entrances and exits, City Staff requests additional illumination levels for the lighting over the exit door located on the north elevation. Ms. McIntosh noted an existing trash enclosure is located on the east side of the Subject Property; however, the applicant proposes to replace and relocate the trash area further to the east, towards the edge of the parking lot. The existing trash enclosure would be removed, and the area would be re-purposed for snow storage. When City staff first met with the applicant, concerns were raised about a garbage truck’s ability to navigate this area as it appeared there were no areas to turn 11/13/23 -12- DRAFT around. This would have required a garbage truck to pick up trash at the eastern edge of the parking lot and navigate in reverse back towards the Brooklyn Boulevard entrance before turning around. Ms. McIntosh stated city staff requested the applicant provide a turning diagram showing that a typical garbage truck could make the turning movements. Following this, the applicant’s team revised the site plan to make alterations to the east portion of the parking lot and removed the parking located just outside the east doors to allow for maneuvering. A turning movements diagram was provided that demonstrates the ability of a 30-foot-long truck to navigate the trash enclosure and parking lot area. city staff had previously requested striping and signage to ensure no one parked or obstructed this area; the civil plans have since been revised to indicate a paint ed access aisle with white cross-hatching. Ms. McIntosh explained that the new, expanded trash enclosure would be constructed of brick or stone to match the existing brick building and with precast concrete caps. The enclosure appears to feature wooden, opaque doors. Although no measurements are provided, the new trash enclosure should be located at least five feet off the interior property line. All ground-mounted equipment over 30 inches in height or greater than 12 cubic feet shall be effectively screened from public view. Similarly, roof-mounted equipment shall be screened from view through parapets, wall/ fencing materials, or paint compatible and complementary to the building. Ms. McIntosh pointed out that city staff noted clear visibility to the neighboring single-family residential to the north in visiting the Subject Property. Although the City approvals noted under Planning Commission Application No. 85011 acknowledged an existing cedar hedge along the north and east property lines as an appropriate method of screening from the residential uses, it was also stipulated that replacement screening would be required were it to fail. Ms. McIntosh stated although there is an existing chain link fence in place, city staff requested the applicant revise the screening along the north property line to comply with the City’s sc reening standards and specifically to minimize the negative impacts of vehicle lights shining into single- family residential yards as they navigate the parking lot. Following the Planning Commission and public hearing on October 12, 2023, the applicant requested city staff allow for the revision of plans to address comments made by Brooklyn United Methodist Church for a privacy fence along the northern property line and to address City Staff comments. Ms. McIntosh stated there are no plans to alter the ex terior of the building, except for some identified tuckpointing required on the existing brick exterior. A new engineered canopy would be installed over a proposed exterior mailbox area outside the main doors to match the existing main entry canopy. City Code requires no less than 60 percent face brick, natural or colored stone, pre- colored or factory stained or stained on-site textured pre-cast concrete panels, textured concrete block, stucco, glass, fiberglass, or similar materials. Although this requirement appears to have been met, city staff requests a rendering with a schedule breakdown of building materials by percent. Ms. McIntosh pointed out a previously approved landscape plan on file for the Subject Property, approved in 1985 under Planning Commission Application No. 85011; City Staff requested the applicant work off this plan as a baseline. It should be noted that the approved landscape plan 11/13/23 -13- DRAFT contemplated the two-phase development; therefore, certain plantings contemplated in the original 1985 plan were never installed. Ms. McIntosh noted that the applicant provided a preliminary plan schedule and landscape plan, which was reviewed as part of the October 12, 2023 report. At the time, City Staff noted that, while Green Ash trees are native to Minnesota, they have generally been overplanted and are becoming less and less familiar with the presence of Emerald Ash Borer in the State. City Staff requests the applicant determine if there are any opportunities to treat the trees, given their deteriorating condition. If not, city staff requests the applicant work with a City-approved certified arborist to remove the trees to minimize the spread of Emerald Ash Borer. Ms. McIntosh explained the applicant has since revised the landscape plans to incorporate ten additional Isanti Redosier Dogwoods. An underground irrigation system must be installed in all landscaped areas to help facilitate site maintenance, as noted in the 1985 approvals. The submitted landscape plan identifies existing turf and irrigation lines intended to remain and new drip irrigation to be installed around the building foundation planting areas. Ms. McIntosh added that in reviewing the submitted initial landscape plans, city staff noted that a considerable area along the northern property line was proposed to install wood mulch, which is considered a temporary ground cover. Although edging can be utilized to help contain the mulch, city staff expressed concern with the proximity of this area to the City’s stormwater pond and that a portion of this area is intended for snow storage. With this in mind, city staff requested the applicant identify alternative landscaping measures for this area. The applicant has since revised the landscape plans to reflect the installation of rock mulch in those areas surrounding the trash enclosure and snow storage areas before transitioning to wood mulch along the property line area. Ms. McIntosh stated the applicant requested reuse of the existing sign cabinet at the top of the building and facing Brooklyn Boulevard, which is approximately 61 square feet. Any new signage would be required to comply with the provisions outlined within Section 35-6000 of the City Code. Although the sign size appears to exceed the City’s maximum wall size provisions for multiple family dwelling units, Section 35-6300 stipulates that “nonconformities will generally be permitted to continue under the provisions of this Code;” therefore, it is interpreted that a replacement panel would be permitted. Should the wall sign be majorly altered or the cabinets replaced in the future, the sign would be required to comply with City Code requirements. Ms. McIntosh confirmed engineering reviewed plans and provided a memo dated October 4, 2023. Existing comments still stand. The applicant will need to revise parking signage as part of ADA compliance and obtain any potential permitting from Hennepin County. Ms. McIntosh added the Building Official conducted a cursory review on October 9, 2023. The applicant must comply with comments as part of any permitting. A fire sprinkler and monitoring system is required for installation, ADA regulations must be met concerning any building or site improvements, a SAC determination shall be submitted to the Metropolitan Council, and approvals from the Hennepin County Health Department must be approved. Ms. McIntosh noted a CPTED review is to be completed by city staff, and a rental license must be 11/13/23 -14- DRAFT applied for and maintained prior to any occupancy. Ms. McIntosh pointed out that a public hearing notice was published in the Brooklyn Center Sun Post and mail notifications were sent to all physical addresses within 350 feet of the subject property. Ms. McIntosh noted on October 4, 2023, city staff received a voicemail from a business owner located within the Boulevard Plaza office condominiums, located just south of the Subject Property. On October 6, 2023, city staff received a letter with an attached petition of signatures from 31 individuals operating out of the Boulevard Plaza office condominiums. The letter outlined various concerns, such as changing the area's environment to a residential area rather than a business district, safety concerns, increased traffic, dumping concerns, and privacy concerns. Ms. McIntosh stated on October 11, 2023, city staff received an email from the representation of Brooklyn United Methodist Church, who indicated a “vested interest in the housing proposal because our parking lot abuts the property in question.” They inquired about the proposal and requested the installation of a privacy fence between the subject property and the overflow lot. A follow-up email was sent to city staff following the public hearing. Ms. McIntosh noted that Pham-Vang Optometry, who initially signed the petition letter presented by the Boulevard Plaza office condominiums, submitted a separate letter of petition following the public hearing on October 13, 2023. Ms. McIntosh stated the Planning Commission posing questions regarding the availability of outdoor amenity space, safety and security within the building, the types of tenants likely to occupy the building, the availability of on-site management, and opportunities to address concerns addressed by neighboring property owners. Following the close of the public hearing, the Planning Commission recommended denying the requested site and building plan with a 3-2 vote. Ms. McIntosh added that the Housing Commission reviewed the proposal at their October 17, 2023, meeting and generally favored the proposed conversation. They cited housing diversity and choice as part of the support. They had questions regarding how neighboring business owners' grievances might be addressed. Ms. McIntosh explained overall, the proposal generally meets the minimum requirements outlined under the City’s Unified Development Ordinance and Section 35-7604. There are two proposed options before the Council. The first option is a motion to direct staff to prepare a resolution approving the site and building plan (major amendment) as outlined in Planning Commission Application No. 2023-007, which would convert a former credit union and office building to a 17-unit multi-family residential building, subject to the outlined conditions of approval. The second option is to direct Staff to prepare a resolution denying the site and building plan (major amendment) as outlined in Planning Commission Application No. 2023-007 with outlined findings of fact. Ms. McIntosh offered to answer any questions of the City Council regarding the request. 11/13/23 -15- DRAFT Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson asked why the Planning Commission voted in the way they did. Ms. McIntosh stated she tried to get clarity from the Planning Commission. There were some concerns about the form and fit of the building and an amenity space. There were also questions about building code, which isn’t under the purview of the Planning Commission. Any building code issues would be resolved as part of the approval process. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson noted she attended the Planning Commission meeting, and the Commission primarily appeared neutral on the topic. Councilmember Jerzak pointed out there seems to be extensive opposition to the project, as seen by the Planning Commission vote and community feedback. He asked where the opposition came from. Ms. McIntosh stated the letter from the neighboring office expressed that this area was a business district and was not a residential area. The new zoning does allow for the use. Other concerns mentioned included safety, increased traffic, dumping, and privacy concerns. The applicant tried to address most of the issues. However, many of the concerns are not within the scope of the Planning Commission review or land use review. Councilmember Jerzak asked if the City was approached regarding a conversion prior to a purchase. Ms. McIntosh stated the former owner did engage with city staff in January 2023. Staff walked through the new owner about potential space uses, including a multi-family or office use. Councilmember Jerzak asked what the new owner’s initial plan for the space was. Ms. McIntosh stated the new owner didn’t indicate a specific preference until after purchasing the building. Councilmember Kragness asked about the longevity of the businesses who wrote the opposition letters. Ms. McIntosh stated the writer of the initial office letter has been in the space for about 24 years. She stated she is unaware of the length of the other unit occupants’ use of the space. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson stated she would like to hear the perspectives of her colleagues. Councilmember Jerzak stated he is inclined to vote in line with the Planning Commission and the opposition letters. He added it doesn’t seem to be a good fit for the area. However, he is open to approving the application if the other Councilmembers support it. Mayor Pro Tem Butler noted parking is a concern because of its proximity to Brooklyn Boulevard. Councilmember Kragness noted her agreement with Mayor Pro Tem Butler. She added she doesn’t want there to be an adverse impact on the long-term business owners in the area. She asked if there is a better location for the plan. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson moved, and Councilmember Jerzak seconded to direct staff to prepare a resolution denying the site and building plan (major amendment) as outlined in Planning Commission Application No. 2023-007 with outlined findings of fact. Motion passed unanimously. 11/13/23 -16- DRAFT 9b. RESOLUTION REGARDING PLANNING COMMISSION APPLICATION NO. 2023-006, SUBMITTED BY AWC HOLDINGS LLC, FOR CONVERSION OF AN EXISTING TWO-TENANT BUILDING TO AN APPROXIMATELY 10,200- SQUARE FOOT RESTAURANT AND BAR (NIGHTCLUB) AND 704-SQUARE FOOT OUTDOOR PATIO (5927 JOHN MARTIN DRIVE) Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson stated she has concerns about the parking variance. Dr. Edwards introduced the item and invited Planner and Zoning Administrator Ginny McIntosh to respond to any additional questions. Ms. McIntosh explained on October 23, 2023, the City Council made a motion to direct staff to prepare a resolution approving a variance as outlined in Planning Commission Application No. 2023-006 for a 59-parking space deficiency associated with related site and building plan and conditional use permit requests that would allow for the conversion of an existing two-tenant building to an approximately 10,200-square foot restaurant and bar (nightclub) with 704-square foot outdoor patio at 5927 John Martin Drive, and subject to outlined conditions of approval. Ms. McIntosh stated variances have a higher level of scrutiny, and it is rare to bring variances to Councils due to the height of the criteria standard. Ultimately, the owner cannot be the reason for the variance. They are generally due to topological considerations. Councilmember Jerzak stated a thriving business needs all possible parking spaces. Any parking issues would overflow to the Police Department. Also, he doesn’t want to set a precedent. Mayor Pro Tem Butler asked what the Council committed to in the previous vote. City Attorney Jason Hill explained City Council made a motion to direct staff to prepare a resolution approving a variance, but it wasn’t an approval in and of itself. If the resolution failed, it would then be deemed a denial per the Statute. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson added she is concerned about the proposed site and its conflict with the Opportunity Site, similar to her comments at the previous meeting. Councilmember Jerzak noted his agreement with Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson. Councilmember Kragness added she supports the project but not the location. Mr. Hill recommended Councilmember Jerzak clarify why he abstained from the previous vote but is now voting on the matter. Councilmember Jerzak stated he is not abstaining from the vote because of the policy precedent approving the application would set. He previously abstained due to his past role working for the City. 11/13/23 -17- DRAFT Mayor Pro Tem Butler added there needs to be a motion and a second for the item regardless of how Councilmembers are going to vote on the item. Mayor Pro Tem Butler moved, and Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson seconded to adopt a Resolution regarding Planning Commission Application No. 2023-006, submitted by AWC Holdings LLC, for approval of a variance for a 59-space parking deficiency and conditional use permit that would allow for the conversion of an existing two-tenant building to an approximately 10,200-square foot restaurant and bar (nightclub) with 704-square foot outdoor patio at 5927 John Martin Drive, based on the submitted findings fact, and as amended by the conditions of approval in the Resolution. Mayor Pro Tem Butler stated the Council previously agreed to move forward with the application approval, so she wants to continue with the approval. Councilmembers Kragness, Lawrence-Anderson, and Jerzak voted against the same. Motion failed. Dr. Edwards asked if the Council needs to direct staff to write a resolution of denial. Mr. Hill stated Statute only requires that Councilmembers dictate the reason for the denial, which has been done. 10. COUNCIL CONSIDERATION ITEMS 10a. FOLLOW UP FROM SPECIAL ASSESSMENT HEARING FOR PROPOSED SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS FOR ADMINISTRATIVE FINES/CITATION COSTS Dr. Edwards introduced the item and invited Community Development Director Jesse Anderson to make the staff presentation. Mr. Anderson explained at the City Council Meeting on October 23, 2023, that two properties appealed the Administrative Fines/Citation Costs during the Special Assessment Hearing. City Council asked staff to bring back information regarding the properties to the November 13, 2023 City Council meeting. Properties 5936 Fremont Ave N and 5520 James Ave N appealed and attached are the summaries for both properties. Mr. Anderson stated for 5936 Fremont Ave N; staff found the property during a proactive code enforcement sweep of the City due to property code violations. It was determined to be an unlicensed rental property due to visits to the property. Staff conducted 14 inspections over ten months. Five administrative citations were issued totaling $6,100, all of which were for renting without a license. The owner's mom brought this item up due to medical issues of the owner. The owner leased his property through a leasing agent, but the agent didn’t allow the son to check in on the rental property. Mr. Anderson noted for 5520 James Ave N, the appellant stated that the other occupants left their inoperable vehicles at the property, and he could not get the vehicles towed. He also stated that he didn't check his mail due to the overwhelming amount of mail he was receiving. Due to his financial situation, he cannot pay the citation amounts. 11/13/23 -18- DRAFT Mr. Anderson pointed out that the City became aware of the property due to a complaint regarding inoperable vehicles and a fallen tree. Staff conducted 14 inspections over five months. Staff spoke with the resident twice to discuss the violations and made multiple additional attempts. Seven administrative citations were issued, and $3,125 has been assessed to the property taxes. Citations were for inoperable vehicles, accumulated junk and materials, a fallen tree, and a broken garage door. He showed images of the property, showing it is now in compliance. Mr. Anderson stated the recommended action for 5936 Fremont Ave N is to dismiss $4,000 and specially assess $2,100 plus the $40 certification fee to the property tax rolls. The owner has applied for a rental license. Mr. Anderson stated the recommended action for 5520 James Ave N is to dismiss $6,000 and specially assess $3,000 plus the $40 certification fee to the property tax rolls. The property is currently in compliance. Mr. Anderson added that no action is needed if the City Council would prefer not to reduce the citations. If the City Council prefers to adjust the amount of the reduction, the resolution can be amended with the motion to approve. Councilmember Jerzak stated this is a difficult topic. He asked why prosecution for renting without a license wasn’t sought out. He explained it is a non-biased third-party. As for the other property, he asked why an occupied abatement wasn’t completed; it would be a suitable alternative response. Both situations have a mental health component; he asked if the City’s social worker was included in the manner. The fines will be prohibitive and promote displacement. The City didn’t do well in either situation. Mr. Anderson stated a prosecution effort is typically done after a $2,000 citation, which wasn’t reached in either scenario. As for an occupied abatement, some of the issues could have been fixed through that process. Councilmember Kragness asked if a property owner can respond to mail notices to work out a payment plan or alternative resolution. Mr. Anderson stated there can be a hearing officer appointed upon request of the property owner via appeal. That typically results in waiving the fines and a “probationary” period for the property owner to maintain compliance. Staff does try to be flexible with time frames based on the circumstances of the property owner. Mayor Pro Tem Butler moved, and Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson seconded to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 2023-105; reducing the certified special assessments for certain properties for administrative fines and citation costs from the Hennepin County Tax Rolls. Councilmember Jerzak stated the City needs to do better going forward. He thanked staff for their work to find a compromise. Motion passed unanimously. 11/13/23 -19- DRAFT 10b. RESOLUTION NO. 2023-106; APPROVING THE GRANT ADMINISTRATION POLICY Dr. Edwards introduced the item and invited Director of Fiscal & Support Services Angela Holm to make the staff presentation. Ms. Holm explained the City Council requested a Grant Administration Policy be established. This was initially given to staff and was later referred to the Finance Commission for completion. The Fiscal and Support Services Department wants to promote accurate financial reporting and clear policies. Ms. Holm pointed out staff plans to seek out more grants, which requires a grant policy to ensure best practices and that the City is being responsible stewards of the money. Work has been completed to develop, implement, and maintain meaningful grant oversight for the City, EDA, and HRA. The goal is to have a uniform method of applying for and managing grants. Uniform Guidance is applicable to Federal Funds. Procedures represent an implementation of the policy. Ms. Holm stated The Finance Commission members met in early 2023 to discuss the request and determine the most efficient way to complete the task. City staff had obtained sample grant policies from other local municipalities as well as municipalities in other states. It was determined that each member of the Commission would review one of the policies, and the group would reconvene to discuss the components of their respective policies that best represented the City’s priorities. The group attempted to reconvene several times but struggled to secure the necessary quorum to take official action. Ms. Holm noted one policy that was received by the group was from the City of Bloomington, MN. This policy was a portion of Bloomington’s larger comprehensive financial policy. It had been vetted by their legal counsel and their City Council. There were many components that aligned well with Brooklyn Center ’s priorities. Due to not having a quorum for multiple meetings, city staff elected to proceed forward with a version of the Grant Administration Policy and presented it to the City Council on May 22, 2023. Ms. Holm explained highlights of the policy include the Council approving all grant awards, all awards requiring a resolution to Council approving grant acceptance and required budget adjustments, grant awards will be subject to the City’s purchasing policy, all grant documentation will be stored electronically in accordance with the City’s Document Retention Policy, and a grant fund will not be disbursed until a fully executed agreement has been received. Ms. Holm added departmental grant administrators are the main contact for each grant. Grant review will occur periodically to ensure funds are sufficient or will be fully expended within the grant timelines. A final close-out memo will be prepared by the proper department. Also, the Finance Director will confirm the grant closeout and submit any closing documentation to the granting entity. Ms. Holm stated there was further discussion about the policy following its submission to the Council. There is a proposed revision on page five. It currently reads , “Ensure that grant-funded 11/13/23 -20- DRAFT personnel are on a contract basis.” The proposed change is to “ensure that grant-funded personnel will be on a contract basis whenever possible.” The hope is to avoid putting strong restrictions on grant-funded positions. For example, a contract basis for full-time firefighters may not be appropriate. However, the City would still like to seek out funding to support the growth of the Fire Department. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson stated she prefers the original language on page five. She suggested it read, “ensure that grant-funded personnel are on a contract basis unless there is proper approval by the Council.” She explained the “whenever possible” portion is vague, and she doesn’t support it. Councilmember Jerzak noted his agreement with Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson. He explained his distaste for contracted positions being forced onto the levy. Mayor Pro Tem Butler asked if it is feasible for all grants to come before the Council due to the amount of grants that are applied for. Dr. Edwards stated there aren’t many grants that pay for staffing, so it is not burdensome to staff. Councilmember Jerzak suggested there be more foresight to build capacity when considering grants and preparing for transitions after the funding subsides. Councilmember Kragness stated the policy gives the responsibility back to the Council to determine the sustainability of grant funding. It isn’t fair for staff to be hired on a contractual basis without fully understanding the implications, except for Police and Fire. She noted her agreement with the wording suggestion made by Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson pointed out that the Council has been in the dark about previous grant application efforts. It sounds like the proposed policy ultimately goes back to the Purchasing Policy to determine the grant amounts brought before the Council. It would be tedious for every grant to go before the Council, but she wants to know about substantial grants and their implications. She encouraged the Finance Commission to meet to review the Purchasing Policy. Councilmember Kragness stated some members of the Finance Commission discussed the Purchasing Policy and the Grant Policy was written completely separately from the Purchasing Policy to decrease staff burden and tedious oversight. The proposed Grant Policy is a good balance of various considerations. There wasn’t a quorum, but a consensus among the present Finance Commission. Councilmember Jerzak asked for the Purchasing Policy to be revisited in a coming Work Session. Dr. Edwards stated staff wouldn’t be able to write a new policy at present due to staffing levels. He suggested the policy be rewritten in the Spring. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson suggested a Work Session before the Spring for the Council to provide input regarding what they want to see in the Purchasing Policy in preparation for staff capacity to be available for a thorough rewrite. Dr. Edwards confirmed that the staff could facilitate conversations regarding the Purchasing Policy with the Council. 11/13/23 -21- DRAFT There was consensus by the Council to have Work Sessions regarding the Purchasing Policy before Spring 2024. Councilmember Kragness added that the Finance Commission needs to be complete and tasked with reviewing the Purchasing Policy within the same timeline. Councilmember Jerzak moved, and Councilmember Kragness seconded to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 2023-106, a Resolution adopting the Grant Administration Policy located in the City Code of Policies, Financial Policies Section 2.25, with the language amendment suggested by Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson. Motion passed unanimously. Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson reiterated her language amendment was for page five to say, “ensure that grant-funded personnel are on a contract-basis unless approved by the City Council.” 11. COUNCIL REPORT Council Report was not considered due to the late hour. 12. ADJOURNMENT Mayor Pro Tem Butler moved, and Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson seconded adjournment of the City Council meeting at 8:56 p.m. Motion passed unanimously. 11/13/23 -1- DRAFT MINUTES OF THE PROCEEDINGS OF THE CITY COUNCIL/ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY OF THE CITY OF BROOKLYN CENTER IN THE COUNTY OF HENNEPIN AND THE STATE OF MINNESOTA WORK SESSION NOVEMBER 13, 2023 CITY HALL – COUNCIL CHAMBERS CALL TO ORDER The Brooklyn Center City Council/Economic Development Authority (EDA) met in Work Session called to order by Mayor/President Pro Tem Marquita Butler at 8:56 p.m. ROLL CALL Mayor/President Pro Tem Marquita Butler and Councilmembers/Commissioners Kris Lawrence- Anderson, Dan Jerzak, and Teneshia Kragness. Mayor/President April Graves was absent. Also present were City Manager Reggie Edwards, Fire Chief Todd Berg, Fiscal and Support Services Director Angela Holm, Assistant City Manager/City Clerk Barb Suciu. FIRE TRUCK PURCHASE PLAN Dr. Edwards introduced the item and invited Fire Chief Todd Berg to continue the staff presentation. Fire Chief Todd Berg stated fire trucks are the most expensive vehicle in the City’s fleet. The hope is to receive feedback from the City Council/EDA regarding the fire truck replacement plan. Currently, there are four fire engines, all of which need to be replaced in the next few years. Because of emission regulations, the motors of the trucks will be increasing by approximately $80,000 to $100,000 by 2026. Chief Berg explained the current fleet replacement schedule replaces fire engines on a 20-year rotation and aerials on a 25-year rotation. Currently, Engine 2 is 21-years-old, Engine 6 is 16- years-old, Engine 5 is seven-years-old. Ladder 4 is 16 years old and Tower 3 is two years old. The last truck was auctioned after its replacement, but it only fetched $7,900. Chief Berg pointed out that fire engines currently cost $1 to $1.3 million and offer technology and safety improvements. The lead time is 24 to 48 months, depending on the manufacturer. The trucks that are 20 years or older have little to no value. Engine 5 is valued at $100,000 to $150,000. Ladder 4 has a value of $450,000. The costs of new trucks have increased by upwards of 25 percent each year. Chief Berg added the item is being brought before the City Council/EDA to avoid the motor emission increase that will come with the newer fire truck chassis due to huge annual increases. 11/13/23 -2- DRAFT The Central Garage Replacement Funds have not kept up with the increases over the long lives of the fire trucks. Chief Berg stated as the trucks age, there are more and more repair costs while the resale value decreases. For example, one of the heavily used engines has averaged $15,000 a year in wear and tear repair charges in each of the last three years. If the City acts now, the Fire Department can have two similar fire trucks built and delivered within 24 months. The cost of each truck would be $1 to $1.3 million. Chief Berg explained if the replacement plan is reduced from 20 or so years to 12 to 15 years, one truck could be eliminated from the fleet. There would have to be a purchase of an additional pickup truck for the fire fleet in order to have enough seats to get firefighters to the scene. It would be a savings of $1 million or more. The City could bond for three new engines in 2024 and receive two engines in 2026 with the third arriving in 2028. This will impact the General Fund of the Fire Department by an additional $61,000 annually for replacement charges, not including the lower costs for maintenance and increase in resale value after 12 years. Chief Berg stated another option is to bond for two new engines in 2024 to receive them in 2026. This will impact the General Fund of the Fire Department by an additional $89,500 annually for replacement charges, not including the lower costs for maintenance and increase in resale value after 12 years. Ms. Holm stated an option for funding is internal funding. The current replacement funding has not kept up with the increasing prices. Central Garage charges will have to be increased to adequately fund replacement needs. There is a shorter time frame to accumulate the required funds. Internal funding will require increased revenues to cover the costs, and the most likely source is the property tax levy. There would also have to be deferred replacement for other equipment. Ms. Holm noted another option is through external funding. For example, equipment certificates operate like bond issuance and have a term of five or ten years. The total cost is dependent on interest rates and the amount of financing needed. The certificates can be issued separately or in conjunction with other bonds. The City will be bonding in 2024 for a street reconstruction project. The debt levy would be increased to make the payments. Replacement costs would be reset and adjusted to accommodate future purchases. Ms. Holm added Staff plans to follow up the conversation with a long-term proposal for a fire truck replacement strategy with the City Council/EDA in a few months. She explained the documents provided to the City Council/EDA. Councilmember/Commissioner Kragness asked if the trucks were paid for in advance. Chief Berg stated there are discounts for prepayment. Councilmember/Commissioner Kragness stated the certificate option doesn’t seem to fit as it operates for five or ten years whereas the replacement schedule recommended is 12 to 15 years. 11/13/23 -3- DRAFT Ms. Holm stated there is a possibility of alternative certificate schedules, though the City typically bonds on a ten-year schedule. Councilmember/Commissioner Kragness recommended finding the peak spot for a truck value is to save the most money. Councilmember/Commissioner Kragness asked if the $61,000 in savings is per truck or per year. Chief Berg stated the $61,000 mentioned is the yearly cost with the certificate for all three trucks. Councilmember/Commissioner Jerzak noted Staff seems to prefer the first option. He asked how the levy would be impacted. He asked if the fire truck could be delivered sooner than the approximate 24-month timeline. Chief Berg stated the truck could be done sooner, depending on the capacity of the manufacturer. Lowering the replacement years would ultimately save the City money. It allows for stronger cost estimates and planning. Councilmember/Commissioner Kragness noted her agreement with Chief Berg’s assessment that lowering the replacement years would ultimately save the City money as it allows for stronger cost estimates and planning.

The BCCS mission is,“To become a justice-centered school community who fuels the unique genius of each student”.Furthermore,BCCS is a Full-Service Community Schools district,with wellness and equity as foundational pillars.The City of Brooklyn Center pedestrian initiative is an important component of ensuring that all BCCS students have access to learning to safely navigate the neighborhood streets and trails,as well as increasing the amount of outdoor physical activity students receive during and outside of the school day. Pedestrian and biking access and safety is an important topic in Brooklyn Center Community Schools District.The district has engaged in Safe Routes To Schools (SRTS)programming for over a decade.Central to this programming includes partnering with the City of Brooklyn Center,Brooklyn Center Police Department,Minnesota Department of Transportation,Three Rivers Parks District,and Minnesota Bike Alliance.As the district continues to expand pedestrian and biking opportunities for all students,the need for updated city infrastructure has been identified for safer access for students,families,staand community members. Examples of pedestrian and bike programming in BCCS schools are numerous.The district has hosted Minnesota Bike Alliance threetimestooer the Walk,Bike,Fun curriculum training for our sta,partners and community organizations,and has more dates scheduled during the 2023-24 school year.BCCS procured its own bike fleet in the spring of 2023 and students use the bikes in Physical Education classes,during family and community engagement events,during Out of School Time programs and more.The district hosts Walk and Roll to School Day events at the schools in the spring and fall,with close to 100%of the middle and high school students participating in activities at the May,2023 event.All elementary and middle school students had access to pedestrian and bike safety lessons at the start of the 2023-24 school year.In addition,with safer infrastructure and greater access, the City of Brooklyn Center holds multiple city and county trails that oer the potential for BCCS students and community members to explore. We are a community school district who holds strong and sound beliefs in creating equitable access for marginalized and silencedgroupsofpeople.I truly believe that this application for the Met Council pedestrian grant will move our community forward in our pursuits.I am in full support of this application and implore you to choose the City of Brooklyn Center for this grant.Our young people and our community need and deserve it.

The proposed site and building plan is inconsistent with the use and character of surrounding properties, which are primarily business and commercial in nature; and 2. Due to its location, the proposed site and building plan is insufficient with regard to providing safe conditions for pedestrians and motor vehicle ways. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, based upon consideration of the record in this matter, including the standards set forth in Section 35-7604 (Site and Building Plan Criteria) of the City Code, the recommendation of the Planning Commission, staff reports, public testimony, written submissions, and the goals and objectives of the City’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan, are as follows: 1.

November 27, 2023 Date Mayor ATTEST: City Clerk The motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was duly seconded by member and upon vote being taken thereon, the following voted in favor thereof: and the following voted against the same: whereupon said resolution was declared duly passed and adopted. Council Regular Meeng DATE:11/13/2023 TO:City Council FROM:Dr. Reggie Edwards, City Manager THROUGH:Jesse Anderson, Community Development Director BY:Ginny McIntosh, City Planner and Zoning Administrator SUBJECT:Planning Commission Applicaon No. 2023-007, Submied by 7100 Brooklyn Blvd LLC, for Conversion of a Former Credit Union and Office Building into a 17-Unit Mul-Family Residenal Building and Related Improvements (7100 Brooklyn Boulevard) Requested Council Acon: City Council is being asked to consider two alternatives regarding Planning Commission Application No. 2023-007: 1. Approval of Site and Building Plan (Major Amendment) for 7100 Brooklyn Boulevard Moon to direct staff to prepare a resoluon approving the site and building plan (major amendment) as outlined in Planning Commission Applicaon No. 2023-007, which would convert a former credit union and office building to a 17-unit mul-family residenal building, subject to the outlined condions of approval. 2. Approval of Site and Building Plan (Major Amendment) for 7100 Brooklyn Boulevard Moon to direct staff to prepare a resoluon denying the site and building plan (major amendment) as outlined in Planning Commission Applicaon No. 2023-007 with outlined findings of fact. Background: 7100 Brooklyn Blvd LLC (“the Applicant”) is requesng review and consideraon of a proposal that would convert a former credit union and office building located at 7100 Brooklyn Boulevard (“the Subject Property”), into a 17-unit mul-family residenal building. The Subject Property was sold to the Property Owner and Applicant in March 2023 per Hennepin County records. Secon 35-7605 (Amendments) provides that a major amendment to an approved site and building plan shall be triggered under certain outlined scenarios, including a, “20 percent or greater change in the number of residenal units.” A review of a major amendment under the City’s Unified Development Ordinance shall follow the procedure set forth for the issuance of a new site and building plan approval. As the proposal would result in a 100-percent change in the number of residenal units, this threshold is triggered. A public hearing noce for the site and building plan request was published in the Brooklyn Center Sun Post on September 28, 2023. Mail noficaons were mailed to all physical addresses and tax payers within 350 feet of the Subject Property and the noce posted to the City of Brooklyn Center’s website. The Planning Commission held a public hearing and reviewed the applicaon request at their meeng on October 12, 2023. In advance of the public hearing, City staff received communicaon from the neighboring Brooklyn United Methodist Church, who owns an overflow parking lot to the north of the Subject Property (PID: 27-119-21-32-0004) and a peon comprised of signatures from 31 individuals operang out of the Boulevard Plaza office condominiums located to the south of the Subject Property. The author of the peon leer, Jeanee Tuzinski, was also present virtually during the hearing and spoke against the project, expressing that this area was a business district and was not a residenal area. She noted that, despite there being 50 or so parking spaces on-site, the credit union only ever used 15 or 20 parking spaces at most and it (Subject Property) was essenally vacant. Later in the hearing, she noted that the proposal was, “a good concept and I like it, just not there.” Tom Foster, Trustee Chair for Brooklyn United Methodist Church, was also present at the meeng and indicated that the only concern they had was a request to extend a privacy fence between the Church and Subject properes and towards Brooklyn Boulevard due to pedestrian traffic and dumpings on their overflow lot. He indicated that, following the presentaon provided by City staff and the noted occupancy within the building, the use likely won’t be as large of an issue as previously thought, but they sll desired the fence. Resident Diane Sannes inquired on the number of residents who could potenally occupy each of the units and where the residents might recreate. Addional quesons were raised regarding the City’s stormwater pond and the ability to fence the area and the number of vehicles parked on the Subject Property. She also noted a damaged transformer (later confirmed to be a phone company pedestal) located just off of the Subject Property in the right-of-way and general blight around the property. Representaon of the Applicant and Property Owner were present and addressed quesons posed by the Planning Commission, provided an overview of the building code requirements necessary to convert the building, and expressed an overall willingness to work with the City to meet City Code requirements for the proposed use. As part of the public hearing process, the Planning Commissioners entered into a dialogue regarding the project and concerns idenfied in the submied peon leers. The following quesons were posed by the Planning Commissioners: 1. Availability for outdoor amenity space (e.g. grilling areas) 2. Safety and security within the building 3. The types of tenants likely to occupy the building (e.g. families, single occupants), unit mix, and proposed rents 4. Availability of on-site management and general quesons regarding property owner 5. Opportunies to address concerns addressed by the neighboring property owners and opons for a fence adjacent to the Brooklyn United Methodist Church overflow lot and along the City stormwater pond Following close of the public hearing, the Planning Commission elected to recommend (3-2) City Council denial of the requested site and building plan (major amendment) for the Subject Property located at 7100 Brooklyn Boulevard and as contemplated under Planning Commission Applicaon No. 2023-007. Following the October 12, 2023 Planning Commission meeng, the Applicant requested addional me to address the concerns idenfied by Brooklyn United Methodist Church and Boulevard Plaza Office Condominiums and make revisions to their plans in advance of City Council review. Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Secon 15.99, subdivision 3.f, City staff requested a 60-day extension to the applicaon review to allow the addional me necessary for the Applicant to respond to the concerns presented by the neighboring property owners and for City staff to review the presented revisions. The staff report has been updated to reflect these updates, which include some minor modificaons to the east poron of the parking lot, the addion of bike racks, and the extension of privacy fencing along the northern property line. The photometric plan has also been updated per City staff comment, and the Applicant provided responses following the Planning Commission meeng to address concerns outlined by those present at the public hearing. Although the Applicant expressed a willingness to install a fence along the eastern property line and adjacent to the City’s stormwater pond, there are numerous easements running through this area and there were addional complexies in that the City requires access to the area for ongoing maintenance and repair of the pond area. The Applicant inquired on whether fencing along the southern property line (Boulevard Plaza Office Condominiums) was a possibility; however, City staff expressed concerns with potenally boxing owners in given the limited separaon between the Subject Property, neighboring Boulevard Plaza, and their exterior mechanical equipment. Following the public hearing, Pham-Vang Optometry, who was one of the 31 peoners from the Boulevard Plaza Office Condominiums, submied a separate peon leer. Addional email communicaon was received from Brooklyn United Methodist Church in which Tom Foster noted that they were, “surprised with the disapproval of the proposal.” It was further reiterated that they would like to keep the request for the privacy fence and inquired on the next steps for review with City Council. These communicaons have been included for the record under Exhibit F in the updated staff report. The City of Brooklyn Center Housing Commission received informaon regarding the proposal at their meeng on October 17, 2023 and were generally in favor of the proposed conversion of the former Spire (Electrus) Credit Union building to 17-units of mul-family residenal and cited housing diversity and choice as part of their support of the proposal. Addional comments were outlined regarding how the neighboring business owner ’s grievances might be addressed, as well as general quesons regarding the former building’s use and ADA accessibility. An addional request was made to review the meeng minutes and recording of the Planning Commission meeng on October 12, 2023. City staff has also been in communicaon with the Applicant and Property Owner regarding vehicles stored on the Subject Property and their removal. The Applicant noted that they were unaware at the me that the storing of vehicles was not permied in the district the Subject Property is located within and have since removed vehicles from the property. A copy of the Planning Commission Report for Planning Commission Applicaon No. 2023-007, originally dated October 12, 2023, and last updated for the City Council meeng on November 13, 2023 meeng, is included. City staff requests City Council review and consideraon of the provided materials and the recommended adopon of a moon that would direct City staff to prepare a resoluon for final acon and adopon at the November 27, 2023 City Council meeng.

Subject Property Location. Requested Action 7100 Brooklyn Blvd LLC (“the Applicant”) is requesting review and consideration of a proposal that would convert a former credit union and office building located at 7100 Brooklyn Boulevard (“the Subject Property”), into a 17-unit multi-family residential building—refer to Exhibit A. The Subject Property was sold to the Property Owner and Applicant in March 2023 per Hennepin County records. Section 35-7605 (Amendments) provides that a major amendment to an approved site and building plan shall be triggered under certain outlined scenarios, including a, “20 percent or greater change in the number of residential units.” A review of a major amendment under the City’s Unified Development Ordinance shall follow the procedure set forth for the issuance of a new site and building plan approval. As the proposal would result in a 100-percent change in the number of residential units, this threshold is triggered. A public hearing notice for the site and building plan request was published in the Brooklyn Center Sun •Application Filed: 09/12/2023 •Review Period (60-day) Deadline: 11/11/2023 •Extension Declared: Yes •Extended Review Period Deadline: 01/10/2024 App. No. 2023-007 PC 10/12/2023 | Revised CC 11/13/2023 Page 2 Post on September 28, 2023 (Exhibit B). Mail notifications were mailed to all physical addresses and tax payers within 350 feet of the Subject Property and the notice posted to the City of Brooklyn Center’s website. Existing Conditions Image 1. Existing Site Conditions at Subject Property. App. No. 2023-007 PC 10/12/2023 | Revised CC 11/13/2023 Page 3 Background The Subject Property appears to have originally been home to the City of Brooklyn Center City Hall offices before relocation to its current address of 6301 Shingle Creek Parkway. In 1985, under Planning Commission Application No. 85011 (Exhibit C), requests for site and building plan and special use permit approvals were requested by then Applicant Uhde/Nelson, Inc. to allow for the construction of two office buildings of approximately 21,180-square feet total. This was intended to be a two-phase proposal in which access to the sites were to have been via a single driveway off Brooklyn Boulevard, which was where the old City Hall entrance was located. The first and larger phase (west), which was ultimately constructed, was a two-story, approximately 14,000-square foot office building that was noted for occupancy by Edina Realty and slated for 70 parking spaces. The second phase (east), which was never constructed, was earmarked for a smaller two-story, approximately 7,000-square foot office building with 44 parking spaces. At that time, the Subject Property was collectively zoned R5 (Multiple Family Residence) District, which allowed for limited “office uses” as special uses in the R5 District. Although true mixed-use districts were not in place until adoption of the City’s Unified Development Ordinance in January 2023, the preceding zoning code did allow for limited non-residential uses within its higher density multi-family residential districts through issuance of a special use permit. Special uses at that time and within these districts included nursing homes, religious uses, public and private elementary and secondary schools, and “certain service-office uses” which were demonstrated to be compatible to and of comparable intensity to permitted R5 district land uses. These office uses were subject to what were then the C1 (Service/Office) District provisions and further restricted in that not all C1 District uses were permitted. An example of this would be the adjacent Boulevard Plaza office condominiums development, which was zoned R3 (Multiple Family Residence) District up until January of this year. This development, like the Subject Property, would’ve been limited to low intensity office uses such as financial, employment, and legal offices, and medical, dental, and chiropractic offices. It can be inferred from the former zoning code provisions that these office uses were specifically permitted through issuance of a special use permit as their intensities and general operations/hours would have minimal impacts on those uses which were permitted within the district (i.e. multi-family residential). With the adoption of the new Unified Development Ordinance in 2023, which includes the City’s zoning provisions, the Subject Property, along with a number of other properties fronting Brooklyn Boulevard, were re-zoned to the new Neighborhood Mixed-Used District designations of MX-N1 and MX-N2. With City approval of the two-phase commercial development in 1985, which included the Subject Property, the Subject Property and neighboring parcel to the east, which is unaddressed, were re-platted to 7100 Corporate Plaza Addition, and re-platted again to 7100 Corporate Plaza 2nd Addition. Certain shared access and signage provisions were recorded as part of these approvals given that the second phase would’ve been landlocked and without direct right-of-way access. In January 2023, and as part of the pending sale, City staff worked with the former property owner and the proposed buyer (Applicant) of the Subject Property to prepare an access easement and utility facilities agreement to ensure the City had a perpetual easement in place for access to certain drainage and utility easements running through the Subject Property and to the City’s stormwater pond, which is located where the second phase would have been located. This storage and treatment pond not only serves the App. No. 2023-007 PC 10/12/2023 | Revised CC 11/13/2023 Page 4 Subject Property, but the southern half of the City’s Woodbine neighborhood. City staff also worked through the termination of a Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, Restrictions and Maintenance Agreement for a private road intended for the second phase, which was never constructed, and a License Agreement for certain signage to be located on the Subject Property, which was no longer necessary. The Applicant initially entered into formal communication with City staff regarding plans to submit a Planning Commission application in June 2023. Although initial plans were submitted in July 2023 to City staff, a letter of incomplete was provided to the Applicant on July 24, 2023 as certain information, including project background information, civil and landscape plans, were not provided. It was at this time that City staff asked for revisions to the application materials, and requested a pre-application meeting to walk through the materials in advance of the upcoming Planning Commission application deadlines. City staff met with the Applicant and development team on August 15, 2023 to discuss the required plans and information for the proposal. A revised submittal was provided to City staff on September 12, 2023. Although the staff report was originally dated for the October 12, 2023 Planning Commission meeting, this staff report has since been updated to reflect revised architectural (October 25, 2023), civil (October 25, 2023), photometric (October 25, 2023), and landscaping (October 25, 2023) plans. The Applicant has also provided a series of responses to concerns raised regarding the Subject Property proposal at the October 12, 2023 Planning Commission meeting—refer to Exhibit A.

Section 35-4103 (Allowed Use Table) of the City’s Unified Development Ordinance allows for “multiple family dwellings” as a permitted use within the City’s Neighborhood Mixed-Use (MX-N2) District, subject to City Council approval of a site and building plan and in conformance with the City’s density requirements for the aforementioned district (15-31 dwelling units per acre), requirements with respect App. No. 2023-007 PC 10/12/2023 | Revised CC 11/13/2023 Page 5 to the site (e.g. parking, landscaping, photometric, screening), and as provided for within the City’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan. Table 1. Excerpt of Section 35-4103 (Allowed Use Table) and Proposed Use of Subject Property. The submitted proposal contemplates a conversion of the building to a 17-unit multi-family residential building, which is in conformance with the MX-N2 District’s density allowances for the 0.99-acre Subject Property. As proposed, the proposed redevelopment would be on the lower end of density permitted within the City’s MX-N Districts. This is reinforced through the City’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan, which denotes the Subject Property’s future land use designation as “Neighborhood Mixed-Use (N-MU)” and again, allows for a density range of 15.01 to 31 dwelling units per acre (DU/Ac.). A unit mix is provided in the architectural plan set, which indicates the following: Main Floor Unit # Unit Type Square Feet (SF) 101 2-Bedroom 706 102 1-Bedroom 686 103 Studio 495 104 Studio 466 105 1-Bedroom 482 106 1-Bedroom 476 107 1-Bedroom 677 Second Floor Unit # Unit Type Square Feet 201 1-Bedroom 617 202 1-Bedroom 344 203 1-Bedroom 342 204 1-Bedroom 344 205 Studio 302 206 Studio 428 207 1-Bedroom 531 208 Studio 252 209 1-Bedroom 395 210 1-Bedroom 414 Table 2. Unit Mix Breakdown for the Subject Property. App. No. 2023-007 PC 10/12/2023 | Revised CC 11/13/2023 Page 6 In reviewing the above table, City staff noted that the Applicant should verify unit types and sizes, as it appeared some of the 1-bedroom units are smaller than proposed studio units. As proposed, community amenities within and on the Subject Property would be fairly minimal. A shared laundry room is provided for on the main level and a private residence party room with small kitchenette space is located in the basement level—this space was formerly used as a training room for the former user, Electrus (Spire) Credit Union. The civil plans have been updated to incorporate a bike rack to the east end of the property. Image 2. Revised Site Plan for Subject Property (October 25, 2023). Site Design As proposed, the proposed conversion from the existing office building use to multi-family residential would result in limited impacts to the existing exterior areas of the Subject Property. Although there are plans to remove an existing standalone ATM located at western edge of the property, re-stripe and remove certain parking within the surface parking lot, and install a new, expanded trash enclosure along the eastern edge of the property, almost all work would be contained to the interior of the building. Traffic | Access |Circulation | Connection There are no plans to alter the existing curb cut, which is located off the east side of Brooklyn Boulevard and provides full vehicular access to and from the Subject Property. Similarly, there are no major plans to alter the existing surface parking lot and circulation given that the majority of work would be contained to the interior of the former office building. A multi-use trail currently runs parallel to the property line of the Subject Property and along Brooklyn Boulevard. The 723 (local) Metro Transit bus line provides service at stops located just off the Subject Property, with service by the 761 (express) line located to the north. Following communication with City staff, the Applicant revised their plans to incorporate a bike rack to the east side of the building. App. No. 2023-007 PC 10/12/2023 | Revised CC 11/13/2023 Page 7 Image 3. Existing Access, Parking, and Circulation on Subject Property. Parking The Subject Property appears to have 64 parking spaces available to date, although some of the parking spaces appear too narrow for parking purposes. As proposed, the Applicant intends to remove five (5) parking spaces located just outside the doors located on the east side of the building to allow for the turning movements necessary for a garbage truck and the bike rack and an additional five (5) parking spaces at the northeast end of the parking lot to accommodate the new trash enclosure. The City’s Unified Development Ordinance, as outlined under Section 35-5506 (Required Parking Spaces), notes a maximum provision of two (2) parking spaces per dwelling unit in multi-family residential situations. Assuming 17 dwelling units, a maximum of 34 parking spaces is required per Code. Even with the removal of parking spaces, the Applicant intends to provide 52 on-site parking spaces. Although this results in a surplus of approximately 18 parking spaces, City staff did not push for the removal of existing impervious to fall within Code requirements to provide additional green or amenity space as there are other potential implications to consider with respect to Watershed rules. As it stands, the submitted plans denote a total impervious surface coverage of 76-percent, which falls below the City’s newly outlined maximum impervious coverage of 80-percent for Neighborhood Mixed- Use District properties. As the Subject Property is non-conforming with respect to setback regulations and parking lot placement as outlined under the Neighborhood-Mixed Use District provisions, City staff would welcome future opportunities to provide residents with additional outdoor amenity space. As is demonstrated in the submitted plans, the minimum drive aisle widths and dimensional standards outlined within Section 35-5504 (Parking Space Standards) appear to be met. In order to manage parking and as part of the plan updates, the Applicant also intends to provided dedicated parking space (numbering) for each of the units and as a means to manage parking. App. No. 2023-007 PC 10/12/2023 | Revised CC 11/13/2023 Page 8 Lighting Image 4. Revised Photometric Plan for the Subject Property (October 25, 2023). An original photometric plan submitted as part of the October 12, 2023 report contained a number of deficiencies with the lighting requirements as outlined under City Code for open air parking lots, fixture types, and illumination levels with respect to the neighboring uses. In response to City staff comments, the Applicant worked with a different lighting contractor to revise the lighting plans per City Code requirements. Any and all lighting and fixtures shall comply with City Code provisions as outlined under Section 35-5400 (Exterior Lighting). The revised plans appear to generally fall within the allowable open- air parking lot illumination levels permitted under City Code. Similarly, the proposed light poles are noted as 20 feet in height, which falls within the maximum allowable pole heights, and the wall fixtures have since been revised from wall-packs, which are not permitted except for service/loading areas, to LED wall sconces. The illumination levels along the building have also since been reduced following City staff concerns regarding excessive lighting levels and potentially negative impacts on abutting single family residential properties. Given the proximity of single-family residential to the north, it is important that any and all lighting limits glare and light spill into the backyards of these properties. Although the wall fixtures appear to generally meet the minimum illumination levels for primary entrances and exits, City staff requests additional illumination levels be provided for the lighting over the exit door located on the north elevation. Trash | Screening An existing trash enclosure is located on the east side of the Subject Property; however, the Applicant proposes to replace and relocate the trash area further to the east, towards the edge of the parking lot. The existing trash enclosure would be removed and the area would be re-purposed for snow storage. When City staff first met with the Applicant, concerns were raised as to a garbage truck’s ability to App. No. 2023-007 PC 10/12/2023 | Revised CC 11/13/2023 Page 9 navigate this area as it appeared there were no areas to turn around. This would have required a garbage truck to pick up trash at the eastern edge of the parking lot and navigate in reverse all the way back (west) towards the Brooklyn Boulevard entrance before turning around. Image 5. Turning Movement Diagram for Subject Property. City staff requested the Applicant provide a turning diagram showing that the turning movements could be made by a typical garbage truck. Following this, the Applicant’s team revised the site plan to make alterations to the east portion of the parking lot and removed the parking located just outside the east doors to allow for maneuvering. A turning movements diagram (Sheet C6—Exhibit A and Image 5 above) was provided that demonstrates the ability for a 30-foot long truck to navigate the trash enclosure and parking lot area. City staff had previously requested striping and signage to ensure no one parked or obstructed this area—the civil plans have since been revised to indicate a painted access aisle with white cross hatching. As proposed, the new, expanded trash enclosure would be constructed of brick or stone to match the existing brick building and with precast concrete caps. The enclosure appears to feature wooden, opaque doors. Although no measurements are provided, the new trash enclosure should be located a minimum of five (5) feet off the interior property line. All ground mounted equipment over 30-inches in height or greater than 12-cubic feet (e.g., transformers, mechanical) shall be effectively screened from public view. Similarly, roof-mounted equipment shall also be screened from view through use of parapets, wall/ fencing materials, or paint compatible and complementary to the building. In visiting the Subject Property, City staff noted clear visibility to the neighboring single-family residential to the north—refer to Image 6 below. Although the City approvals noted under Planning Commission Application No. 85011 acknowledged an existing cedar hedge along the north and east property lines as an appropriate method of screening from the residential uses, it was also stipulated that replacement screening would be required were it to fail. App. No. 2023-007 PC 10/12/2023 | Revised CC 11/13/2023 Page 10 Image 6. Existing Parking Lot (Eastern) at Subject Property and Visibility of Single-Family Residential | Revised Fencing. Although there is an existing chain link fence in place, City staff requested the Applicant revise the screening along the north property line to comply with the City’s screening standards and specifically to minimize the negative impacts of vehicle lights shining into single-family residential yards as they navigate the parking lot—these provisions are addressed under Section 35-5608 (Screening). In reviewing the originally submitted preliminary landscape plan, a new section of 6-foot cedar fence was provided for along the north end of the east parking lot. City staff requested the fence be located outside the identified easement running along the northern property line. Following the Planning Commission and public hearing on October 12, 2023, the Applicant requested City staff allow for the revision of plans to address comments made by Brooklyn United Methodist Church for a privacy fence along the northern property line and to address City staff comments. Although concerns were also raised regarding the City holding pond, which is to the east of the Subject Property, there are a number of easements running through the Subject Property and the City has an agreement with the Subject Property ownership for continued and unrestricted access to the holding pond via the Subject Property for ongoing maintenance and repair of the pond. This presented challenges and constraints with respect to the type of fencing required and minimum clear access requirements for equipment. The revised plans now reflect a 6-foot cedar fence running almost the entire length of the northern property line. In communication with the Applicant, City staff requested a buffer from the above ground equipment (e.g. transformers) located off Brooklyn Boulevard as Xcel Energy has minimum buffer requirements for equipment walls and doors and to comply with maximum height provisions in the front yard area. Architectural Materials There are no plans to alter the exterior of the building, with the exception of some identified tuckpointing required on the existing brick exterior. A new engineered canopy would be installed over a proposed exterior mailbox area located outside the main doors and to match the existing main entry canopy—refer to Image 7 below. City Code requires no less than 60-percent face brick, natural or colored stone, pre-colored or factory stained or stained on site textured pre-cast concrete panels, textured concrete block, stucco, glass, App. No. 2023-007 PC 10/12/2023 | Revised CC 11/13/2023 Page 11 fiberglass, or similar materials. Although this requirement appears to have been met, City staff requests a rendering with a schedule breakdown of building materials by percent—this is both for compliance and for record-keeping purposes. Image 7. Subject Property Exterior with Proposed Minor Alterations and Maintenance. Landscaping As there is a previously approved landscape plan on file for the Subject Property, approved in 1985 under Planning Commission Application No. 85011, City staff requested the Applicant work off this plan as a baseline. It should be noted that the approved landscape plan contemplated the two-phase development; therefore, there are certain plantings contemplated in the original 1985 plan that were never installed. The 1985 plans noted a provision for 13 deciduous trees (i.e. Japanese White Birch, Pin Oak, Green Seedless Ash), 15 Evergreens/Conifers (i.e. Colorado Green Spruce), 190 deciduous shrubs (i.e. Red- twigged Dogwood, Goldflame Spirea, Lilacs), and 29 Evergreen Shrubs (i.e. Mugho Pines, Moppet Junipers, Mint Julep Junipers). Although difficult to read, it appears certain ornamental trees, including Canada Red Cherry and Red Splendor Crab, were to be planted. The Applicant provided a preliminary plan schedule and landscape plan, which was reviewed as part of the October 12, 2023 report. At the time, City staff noted that, while Green Ash trees are native to Minnesota, they have generally been overplanted and with the presence of Emerald Ash Borer in the state, are becoming less and less common. The provided Field Tree Inventory Log (Table 4—below) denotes a five (5) Green Ash trees present on the Subject Property that are identified as in “poor condition” and noted with “EAB” (Emerald Ash Borer). City staff requests the Applicant determine if there are any opportunities to treat the trees given their deteriorating condition. If not, City staff requests the Applicant work with a City approved certified arborist to remove the trees in a manner that minimizes the spread of Emerald Ash Borer. In addition, select Hackberry and Siberian Elms were noted as in poor condition as well. These trees, if removed, would ultimately require replacement of similar type. The City’s new provisions surrounding landscaping stress that no more than 40-percent of the total trees should be of the same species—this is to promote species diversity and resilience. Additionally, landscape vegetation should emphasize native and resilient plant types where possible. App. No. 2023-007 PC 10/12/2023 | Revised CC 11/13/2023 Page 12 The Applicant has since revised the landscape plans (October 25, 2023) to incorporate 10 additional Isanti Redosier Dogwoods (shrubs). An underground irrigation system is required for install in all landscaped areas to help facilitate site maintenance and was noted in the 1985 approvals—this requirement still stands today and any new areas of landscaping or areas with damaged or missing landscaping would require replacement. The submitted landscape plan identifies existing turf and irrigation lines intended to remain as well as new drip irrigation to be installed around the building foundation planting areas. In reviewing the originally submitted landscape plans, City staff noted a considerable area along the northern property line was proposed for the installation of wood mulch, which is considered a temporary ground cover. Although edging can be utilized to help contain the mulch, City staff expressed concern with the proximity of this area to the City’s stormwater pond and the fact that a portion of this area is intended for snow storage. With this in mind, City staff requested the Applicant identify alternative landscaping measures for this area. The Applicant has since revised the landscape plans to reflect the installation of rock mulch in those areas surrounding the trash enclosure and snow storage areas before transitioning to wood mulch along the property line area. This is generally acceptable to City staff. Table 3. Revised Preliminary Plant Schedule for the Subject Property. App. No. 2023-007 PC 10/12/2023 | Revised CC 11/13/2023 Page 13 Table 4. Submitted Field Tree Inventory Log for the Subject Property. Signs The Applicant requested reuse of the existing sign cabinet located at the top of the building and facing Brooklyn Boulevard, which is approximately 61-square feet in size. Any new signage would be required to comply with the provisions outlined within Section 35-6000 (Signs) of the City Code. Although the sign size appears to exceed the City’s maximum wall size provisions for multiple family dwelling units, Section 35-6300 (Nonconforming Signs) stipulates that, “nonconformities will generally be permitted to continue under the provisions of this Code;” therefore, it is interpreted that a replacement panel would be permitted. Should the wall sign be majorly altered or the cabinets replaced in the future, the sign would be required to comply with City Code requirements. Engineering Review James Soltis, Assistant City Engineer, reviewed the submitted plans and provided a memorandum dated October 4, 2023 (Exhibit D). Although a review of the revised plan sets was conducted, all conditions outlined in the October 4, 2023 memo are still applicable. The memo requests alterations to the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) identification signage locations. Further, the proposed sidewalks do not appear to meet ADA regulations with respect to grading and will require revision to meet Section 406 of the 2020 Minnesota Accessibility Code provisions for landings and ramps. The Applicant will also be required to obtain permits from Hennepin County for any potential work in the right-of-way (Brooklyn Boulevard). Building and Fire Review Building Official Dan Grinsteinner conducted a cursory review in a memorandum dated October 9, 2023 (Exhibit E) of the proposal for the Subject Property and indicated that fire sprinkler and monitoring systems are required by code and are required to be maintained at all times. Given the proposed conversion, select sprinkler heads and systems may need to be relocated as part of the multi-family buildout. The Applicant will also need to meet any minimum ADA requirements for any exterior and interior building improvements, and prior to the issuance of building permits, a SAC determination shall be submitted to App. No. 2023-007 PC 10/12/2023 | Revised CC 11/13/2023 Page 14 the Metropolitan Council given the change of use. Any associated fees shall be paid at time of permit issuance. Although the work appears to be minimal, the Applicant should coordinate with the Hennepin County Health Department to ensure no approvals are necessary for the private residence party room located in the basement level. All building plans are subject to review and approval by the Building Official with respect to applicable codes prior to the issuance of permits. CPTED Review City staff requests that as part of any construction set review and in advance of any permit release, a CPTED (Crime Prevention through Environmental Design) review be completed by City staff. Further, the Property Owner (Applicant) will be required to apply for and maintain a rental license with the City of Brooklyn Center, and in advance of any occupancy. Other Considerations | Public Comment (to date) As mentioned in the beginning of the report, a public hearing notice was published in the Brooklyn Center Sun Post, and mail notifications sent to all physical addresses within 350 feet of the Subject Property. On October 4, 2023 City staff received a voicemail from a business owner located within the Boulevard Plaza office condominiums, located just south of the Subject Property. On October 6, 2023, City staff received a letter with an attached petition comprised of signatures from 31 individuals operating out of the Boulevard Plaza office condominiums. The aforementioned letter is included for the record as Exhibit F— it should be noted that City staff has redacted the email addresses and phone numbers on the petition. The letter provided outlines a variety of concerns, including but not limited to: •Changing the environment of the area to one of a residential area rather than business district; •Ongoing and continued safety concerns; •Ongoing and increased traffic (both foot and vehicle); •Dumping concerns; and •Privacy concerns On October 11, 2023 City staff received an email from representation of Brooklyn United Methodist Church, who indicated a, “vested interest in the housing proposal because our parking lot abuts the property in question.” They inquired on the proposal and requested installation of a privacy fence between the Subject Property and the overflow lot. A follow-up email was sent to City staff following the public hearing. Pham-Vang Optometry, who initially signed the petition letter presented by the Boulevard Plaza office condominiums submitted a separate letter of petition following the public hearing on October 13, 2023. These letters have been included as part of Exhibit F.

The site is 1.00 acres. The site is currently occupied by a building and vehicle parking lot. There are commercial properties to the south and residences to the north of the property. The lot to the east contains a stormwater pond. Currently, the majority of the stormwater on-site drains via surface flow to a catch basin at the northeast corner of the parking lot and then outlets to the pond to the east. A portion of the site drains via surface flow to a catch basin at the northwest corner of the parking lot which outlets to storm sewer in the street. A small portion of the site drains directly to the adjacent properties to the north and a small portion of the site drains directly to the street. The existing drainage conditions are shown in Figure 1. The proposed improvements include a larger trash enclosure and additional sidewalk. The existing trash enclosure and a portion of the existing parking near the northeast corner of the lot will be removed for the new trash enclosure, which will result in less overall impervious area for the site. The proposed drainage pattern of the site will remain the same. Figure 2 shows the proposed drainage conditions. 2.0 Design Considerations The City of Brooklyn Center (City) and the Shingle Creek Watershed Management Commission (SCWMC) dictate the rate, volume, and water quality requirements for this site. Since this is a redevelopment project resulting in less proposed impervious area than existing conditions, the City and SCWMC requirements are met. See Table 3.1 below for impervious area calculations. 3.0 Impervious Area Table 3.1 – Impervious Area Calculations Discharge Point Existing (sf) Proposed (sf) CB East 24,183 24,021 CB West 7,674 7,634 North Property 186 186 Street 1,029 1,029 Total 33,072 32,870 As shown in the table above, the proposed impervious area is less than the existing impervious area.

The parking lot already has a lot of extraneous, unauthorized use. We are concerned that converting this property could increase overflow parking by residents and visitors. Is there adequate parking space available on the property for the expected occupancy? BUMC would be willing to have a discussion on the lease or sale of a section of our parking lot. Safety is a grave concern. With increased movement in and out of the housing area, and Brooklyn Blvd. being a very busy street, has the City considered increased accident potential. In conjunction with safety, will the City see a need for any additional streetlights in this area? 2 If approved, we request that the developer construct a privacy fence between the two properties. Our BUMC board of trustees would expect to be involved in the design and placement of this fence.

We understand that it can move forward to the City Counsel. Are there steps they will be required to take prior to presenting to the City Counsel? Since the Chair recommended that a fence would be in the best interest of both parties, will it go forward as a requirement or just a recommendation? I'd surmise that the owners will want to continue pursing approval. Will we be notified if and when this will be presented? We want to make sure our request for a privacy fence stays in the package.

The intent of the shell space was to provide brick and mortar space for small business owners while maintaining commercial affordable in Brooklyn Center. The EDA has approved a $70,000 commercial build out loan to Phu Bia Produce LLC with the condion of execung a lease agreement between Phu Bia Produce LLC and City of Brooklyn Center. The project scope consisted of new flooring, painted walls, walk in cooler, a brand new bathroom. Prior to Phu Bia, the shell space was empty and under-ulize. City of Brooklyn Center is charging a base rate of fieen dollars ($15) a square feet. Gross rent area is three thousand five hundred (3,500). Monthly rent collected from Phu Bia Produce LLC is four thousand three hundred and seventy five dollars ($4,375). Rent payment is due the first of each month. Rent payments were to start on August 1, 2022. In lieu of no build out allowance on the shell space, six and a half months were granted to Phu Bia Produce LLC in order to support cashflow and minimize start up expenses. Phu Bia was not able to open according to schedule due to equipment availability at that me, contractor issues, limited knowledge of navigang health department and city process. Phu Bia recently received their cerficate of occupancy and is now ordering products to their store. They've built out the empty shell space that the City owned and received a cerficate of of occupancy. Without an operang business they have had a hard me paying rent and loan payments. Now that they are close to opening they ancipate being able to pay for their loan and lease going forward. However, as of October 17, they owe $65,625 in back rent, $2,250 in late fees. They did make a payment of $6,105 towards there loan. The past due balance on the loan is $6,956.40. Aer recent discussion with Mai Y Lor, they have stated that they do not have the funds to pay the back rent and past due loan payments. Also, she does not foresee the ability to add any addional monthly expenses in the near future. Therefore, staff have prepared a resoluons modifying the loan and lease in order to address the past due balance. If the items is approved they are to start making lease payments on November 1, 2023. Further, City staff spoke with the City Aorney regarding acons that could be taken if the Council would prefer to not amend the lease and loan. According to the City Aorney, the following are potenal acons that the City could take if there was no amendment. The lessee is in default for not paying rent. The City would provide at least 15 days-noce of default, and if not cured, the City can declare the lease terminated. The noce should include noce that personal property, equipment and fixtures must also be removed without damaging the premises. The City can immediately take possession of the premises, including personal property, equipment and fixtures. The City can commence an evicon acon if the tenant remains on the premises. The City can bring suit against the lessee for amounts owed. The City can immediately make the premises ready for a new tenant, which includes removal of personal property, equipment and fixtures. If the City has to commence legal acon, the lessee may be required to pay the City’s aorney’s fees. With regard to the note and loan agreement, the City Aorneys recommendaon would be that the City move forward as follows: The borrower is charged a default interest rate of 10% and the enre principal amount outstanding, accrued interest and any other charges due are immediately due and payable, without noce, at the opon of the EDA. The first acon would be a demand leer to the borrower. The EDA has the right to take possession of the business equipment, as that is defined in the Uniform Commercial Code. The EDA can take other legal acon to procure payment. 11/16/23, 2:17 PM Coversheet https://brooklyncenter.novusagenda.com/agendapublic/CoverSheet.aspx?ItemID=4782&MeetingID=611 2/2 The EDA can cancel the agreement.

Commissioner Jerzak stated he doesn’t see the extension as beneficial as it may encourage the owner to spend more money on the venture. 10/23/23 -2- DRAFT Commissioner Kragness noted the owner has already indicated they are unable to pay additional monthly payments. Mr. Anderson stated the monthly payment amount would stay the same, and the maturity date of the loan would be extended by eight months. The loan must be repaid whether or not it is extended by the EDA. Commissioner Kragness asked why the measure wasn’t taken earlier. Mr. Anderson stated Staff was working with the owner to help them open. Commissioner Lawrence-Anderson asked if the measure would force a bankruptcy. Mr. Anderson stated he was unsure. If they cancel the lease and evict them, he is unsure if they will be able to make loan payments. Commissioner Jerzak stated if the City is going to enter into negotiations with the owner, he would be more than willing to extend the loan. He stated he didn’t want the owner to dig the hole any further. There is no sense in going after someone when they are down. Commissioner Lawrence-Anderson suggested tabling the item for Staff to have a conversation with the owner to see what her preference would be.

The intent of the shell space was to provide brick and mortar space for small business owners while maintaining commercial affordable in Brooklyn Center. The EDA has approved a $70,000 commercial build out loan to Phu Bia Produce LLC with the condion of execung a lease agreement between Phu Bia Produce LLC and City of Brooklyn Center. The project scope consisted of new flooring, painted walls, walk in cooler, a brand new bathroom. Prior to Phu Bia, the shell space was empty and under-ulize. City of Brooklyn Center is charging a base rate of fieen dollars ($15) a square feet. Gross rent area is three thousand five hundred (3,500). Monthly rent collected from Phu Bia Produce LLC is four thousand three hundred and seventy five dollars ($4,375). Rent payment is due the first of each month. Rent payments were to start on August 1, 2022. In lieu of no build out allowance on the shell space, six and a half months were granted to Phu Bia Produce LLC in order to support cashflow and minimize start up expenses. Phu Bia was not able to open according to schedule due to equipment availability at that me, contractor issues, limited knowledge of navigang health department and city process. Phu Bia recently received their cerficate of occupancy and is now ordering products to their store. They've built out the empty shell space that the City owned and received a cerficate of of occupancy. Without an operang business they have had a hard me paying rent and loan payments. Now that they are close to opening they ancipate being able to pay for their loan and lease going forward. However, as of October 17, they owe $65,625 in back rent, $2,250 in late fees. They did make a payment of $6,105 towards there loan. The past due balance on the loan is $6,956.40. Aer recent discussion with Mai Y Lor, they have stated that they do not have the funds to pay the back rent and past due loan payments. Also, she does not foresee the ability to add any addional monthly expenses in the near future. Therefore, staff have prepared a resoluons modifying the loan and lease in order to address the past due balance. If the items is approved they are to start making lease payments on November 1, 2023. Further, City staff spoke with the City Aorney regarding acons that could be taken if the Council would prefer to not amend the lease and loan. According to the City Aorney, the following are potenal acons that the City could take if there was no amendment. The lessee is in default for not paying rent. The City would provide at least 15 days-noce of default, and if not cured, the City can declare the lease terminated. The noce should include noce that personal property, equipment and fixtures must also be removed without damaging the premises. The City can immediately take possession of the premises, including personal property, equipment and fixtures. The City can commence an evicon acon if the tenant remains on the premises. The City can bring suit against the lessee for amounts owed. The City can immediately make the premises ready for a new tenant, which includes removal of personal property, equipment and fixtures. If the City has to commence legal acon, the lessee may be required to pay the City’s aorney’s fees. With regard to the note and loan agreement, the City Aorneys recommendaon would be that the City move forward as follows: The borrower is charged a default interest rate of 10% and the enre principal amount outstanding, accrued interest and any other charges due are immediately due and payable, without noce, at the opon of the EDA. The first acon would be a demand leer to the borrower. The EDA has the right to take possession of the business equipment, as that is defined in the Uniform Commercial Code. The EDA can take other legal acon to procure payment. 11/16/23, 2:17 PM Coversheet https://brooklyncenter.novusagenda.com/agendapublic/CoverSheet.aspx?ItemID=4782&MeetingID=611 2/2 The EDA can cancel the agreement.
