WHEREAS, the City Council considered Application No. 98005 at their March 12, 1998
meeting; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has considered this rezoning and site and building plan
requests in light of all testimony received, the guidelines for evaluating rezonings contained in
Section 35-208 of the City's zoning ordinance, the provisions of the Planned Unit Development
ordinance contained in Section 35-355, the City's Comprehensive Plan and the Planning
Commission's recommendation.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Brooklyn
Center that Application No. 98005 submitted by Extended Stay America, Inc. be approved in light
of the following considerations:
1. The rezoning and Planned Unit Development proposal are compatible with the
standards, purposes and intent of the Planned Unit Development section of the City's
zoning ordinance.
2. The rezoning and Planned Unit Development proposal will allow for the utilization of
Resolution No.
the land in question in a manner which is compatible with, complimentary to and of
comparable intensity to adjacent land uses as well as those permitted on surrounding
land.
3. The utilization of the property as proposed under this rezoning and site and building
plan will conform with city ordinance standards and is considered a reasonable use of
the property .
4. The rezoning and Planned Unit Development proposal are considered compatible with
the recommendations of the City's Comprehensive Plan for this area of the city.
5. The rezoning and site and building plan appear to be a good long range use of the
existing land and an asset to the community.
6. In light of the above considerations, it is believed that the guidelines for evaluating
rezonings as contained in Section 35-208 of the City's zoning ordinance are met and
that the proposal is, therefore, in the best interest of the community.
