RESOLUTION REQUESTING THE CHANGE IN PUBLIC USE OF LOT 1, BLOCK 2,
THOMAS CONSTRUCTION CO. 2ND ADDITION, HENNEPIN COUNTY, MINNESOTA
TO INCLUDE VARIOUS PUBLIC USES
WHEREAS, on January 18, 1980 the above captioned real estate was
conveyed to the City of Brooklyn Center by the Minnesota Department of Revenue
to be used exclusively for park and street purposes; and
WHEREAS, Evergreen Park lies directly to the west of the subject
parcel; and
WHEREAS, Evergreen School lies directly west of Evergreen Park; and
WHEREAS, the City's street equipment storage area lies directly to
the south of Evergreen School; and
WHEREAS, the street equipment storage area is scheduled for conversion
to a new water treatment plant; and
WHEREAS, it is necessary for the health, safety, welfare and convenience
of the public to construct soccer fields in an area adjacent to the Evergreen
III School property; and
WHEREAS, the only available space for soccer fields lies with Lot 1,
Block 2, Thomas Construction Co. 2nd Addition, which is a considerable distance
from the Evergreen School; and
WHEREAS, it would be substantially more beneficial to the public if the
proposed water treatment plant were shifted from the street equipment storage
area to the Thomas Construction Co. property and the soccer fields were built
on the street equipment storage area because of the convenience to those using
the soccer fields.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL of the City of
Brooklyn Center that the Mayor and City Manager are hereby authorized to make
application to the County of Hennepin requesting that the use designation on
Lot 1, Block 2, Thomas Construction Co. 2nd Addition be amended to include several
alternate public uses including park and street purposes, water treatment plant
purposes, and street and utility equipment storage area.
