RESOLUTION NO. 91 -62
ATTEST:
2. Many sites in the I -2 district lack sufficient
parking and greenstrips and do not meet required
setbacks.
3. The future upgrading of Highway 100 in the area to
freeway status will change the nature of the area
contained in the I -2 zoning district.
4. A planned unit development designation will give
the City and private property owners and developers
the flexibility to approach redevelopment in the I-
2 area of the City in a manner that will most
enhance the neighborhood as well as individual
properties.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED by the Brooklyn Center Planning
Advisory Commission to recommend to the City Council that the
Brooklyn Center Comprehensive Plan be revised to read as follows:
Area No. 18 on Figure 15 shall be expanded to include the
I -2 area north of the Soo Line tracks and west of France
Avenue North; and
No. 18 of Table 14 on page 98 of the Comprehensive Plan
regarding the Land Use Plan be changed from "Light
Industrial" to "Redevelopment as Planned Unit Development
and /or Light Industrial."
