AN URDINANCE RELATING T4 RENTAL DWELLINGS AND NON-C4NFOi2MING USES; AMENDING CITY CUD� SECTIUNS 12-9U1,12-902 AND 35-111 Mr. McCauley discussed that staff is suggesting some changes in the rental dwelling and zoning ordinances to streamline dealing with duplexes and/or two-family dwellings. There is a significant amount of units now nonconforming in the"Ciiy and staf�has found that the enforcement of the licensing provisions of Ghapter 12 relative to these properties has become extremely time consuming and often contentious. This item is on the agenda for two possible actions. One would be to introduce the propased ordinance for first readiiig and set second r�ading and public hearing on June 13, 2005; and the second would be to direct the Housing Commission to review and report on the ordi.nance prior to June 13, 2005. Councilmember Carmody expressed tha.t she would like to hold off on the first rea.ding have the Housing Commission review the ordinance, and then put this item on the June t3, 2005, a.genda for approval of first readin�. Co�u�.cilmember Niesen discussed tliat she would not be inclined to set a first read'uig without thoroughly debating this housing law. She believes tlus is an important issue and with tlie Council being the liighest autharity to deal with hausing issues, she would like to move ahead with holding off on seiting the first reading at this time. She asked that these ideas presented move forward to the meetin� with the Council and Coinmission Chairs and informed that she will be meeting with the Housing Commission in May to further discuss this issue since she has many concerns. Co�.u�.citxneinber Cannody suggested that Cotuacilmember Niesen prepare a merno of her concerns to present to the Housing Cominission in April so they have tiine to review her concerns and to discuss in May; and infonned that she would like to see the memo before it goes to the Housing Commission to make sure it would be samething that the Council agrees on. Mr. McCauley discussed that the text before tlie Council tllis evening does not change the policy on rental housing. It attempts to address people who are not subject ta the rental housing ordinance in the first instance. This would be an orderly mechanism that relates to establishing and maintaining proof of a ilonconformin� use. It does not relate to how you rent property or the rules of renting properiy, it is simply allowing an orderly mechanism for people to do that. With respect to the technical application of license fees, it clarifies that if soinebody applies for a license they do not get the entire fee back; they get the fee less what had been spent in terms of staff time up to that point. Councihn.ember N�sen questioned the sixty plus duple�:es and/or two-family dwellings that are nonconfamung. Mr. McCauley discussed that they were built at a time when the zoning would allow the construction of a two-family dwelling and/or duplex. Sonle of those areas were rezoned to R-1. When it was zoned R-1 they became n.onconforruing uses. Councilmembe�• Niesen discussed her properry that was built as a motlier-in-law apartment which she believes is very cammon in Minnesota and that she does not know why someone would come into her R-1 zoned house a��d ca11 it a duplex. She said that the City of Brooklyn Ceirter stands alon.e on this area and �nany other areas of the rental ordana�ice and that is why she u �ants to discuss this further with tlie Housing 4/13/2005 Page 2 of 2 Cammission. Councilmember Niesen questioned the following language proposed in the ordinance a�nendment: An awner of a duplex dwelling that is being occupied but is not being let for lease or rent is no`t� reqtdred fio secure a rental dwelling license provided such owner files with the City a certification, in a form provided by the City, that no rent or any other consideration is being pa.id, given or provided, directly or indirectly, by or on behalf of the occupants to the owner. The owner sha11 provide such additional information in support of such certification as may be required by the Complia�ice �fficial. She eapressed that she believes it is not acceptable to have govemment intrusion into people's lives. Mayor Kragness discussed the reason a license is being required is to help pay with staff's time having to inspect two units. Councilmember Niesen debated about that even being an issue. Councilmember Cazmody discussed that she believes this niatter would not be an appropriate discussion for the joint meeting with Commission Chairs. She suggested that the timeline be discussed with the Conunission Chairs; and that at this tiine the Council direct the Housing Conunission to review and report on i;�e ordinance prior to June 13, 2005. A niotian by Councilmember Carrnody, seconded by Councilmember Lasman to direct the Housing Cammissian to review and repoi-t on tlie ardinance prior ta June 13, 2005. Motion passed unanunously. Mr. LeFevere informed that this would also amend the zoning code and questioned if the Council would be referring this to the Planning Cammission. Mr. McCauley responded that this issue would be sent ta the Plannin Comnussian as welL g aii �i�nn5 r CITY OF BROOKLYN CENTER a s Notice is hereby given that a public hearing will be held on the day of 2005, at 7:00 p.m. at City Hall, 6301 Shingle Creek Pazkway, to consider an ordinance relating to rental housing and to non-conforming uses.

There is a provision in the ordinance regarding the licensing of two family dwellings, which in some cases allows the owner to apply for a Rental License Exemption eertificate. Section 35-111 also states that non-conforming duplex properties in the Rl district shall lose nonconforming use and must be brought into compliance with current code provisions if a two year'period elapses during which the owners do not apply for a license or file the certificate required by Section 12-901. There is no fee for this certificate and the property is not inspected. City records indicate that you own, or that you represent the ownership of, a two family dwelling in Brooklyn Center. If you qualify for the Rental License Exemption Certificate, it is necessary for you to complete the application form and return it to the city for processing. Your signature at the bottom of the application must be notarized. You will be required to verify the status of this property every two years when the Certificate renews. 1 If, however, you do not meet the qualifications for the Rental License Exemption Certificate, you must apply for the rental license, pay the license fee and schedule the required �inspection.

ROLL CALL Chair Tim Willson, Coxnmissioners Sean Rahn, Dianne Reem, and Tim Roche were present. Also present were Secretary to the Planning Commission/Planning and Zoning Specialist Ronald Warren, and Planning Commission Recording Secretary Rebecca Crass. Graydon Boeck, Rachel Lund and Rex Newman were absent and excused. APPROVAL OF MINUTES MARCH 10. 2005 There was a motion by Commissioner Reem, seconded by Commissioner Roche, to approve the minutes of the March 10, 2005 meeting as submitted. The motion passed. Comrnissioner Rahn abstained as he was not present at the meeting. CHA1R S EXPLANATION Chair Willson explained the Planning Commission's role as an advisory body. One of the Commission's functions is to hold public hearings. In the matters concerned in these hearings, the Commission makes recommendations to the City Council. The City Council makes all final decisions in these matters. DISCUSSION TTEM DRAFT ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 35 REGARDING PERMTTTED USES IN THE C1A SERVICE/OFFICE DISTRICT Mr. Warren stated that the subject being discussed is a draft ordinance amendment regarding permitted uses in the C1A Service/Office district. Generally, all zoning and siga ordinance amendments require review and comment by the Planning Commission with respect to those ordinances, before being submitted to the City Council for consideration. Mr. Warren explained that the proposed ordinance amendment is directly related to a project that has been considered for the vacant ClA zoned property located on Earle Brown Drive adjacent to the Earle Brown Heritage Center. For a number of yeazs the City has been concerned about the potential development of this site and the effect it might have on adjacent and adjoining properties. The City CounciUEDA has aggressively pursued the development of a hotel on this site since the time of the Calthorpe Smart Growth Study a number of yeazs ago that acknowledged the desirability of such a use in this area. The City acquired the property to control its development and discussions with potential developers have ensued to the point where 3-31-OS Page 1 a development agreement has been concluded between the EDA and Brooklyn Hotel Partners, LLC for a combination hoteUwater pazk development. Mr. Warren explained that the C1A district allows a variety of service and office uses with no zoning limitations on the height of a building. He added that the district is often referred to as a high rise service/office district as opposed to the C1 district that limits building heights to three stories. He noted that the hoteUwater park proposed would be consistent with the building height and bulk characteristics of surrounding properties. Mr. Warren added that amending the zoning ordinance to allow transient lodging and associated uses in the C1A zone would allow the use being proposed to take place and maintain consistency with the Comprehensive Plan. The developers of the hotel are in a position to move forward and amending the ordinance would a11ow the hotel development to take place and be consistent with the city's Comprehensive Plan. Chair �Villson stated the PUD process has helped the city put together developments when several parcels aze involved. Since this is only one parcel, is it correct to assume that this ordi.nance amendment would benefit parcels also zoned C1A located in the Opportunity Site and other locations. Mr. Warren responded that it would allow hotels and associated uses on any C1A zoned property; however, it would not a11ow these uses in the C1 zone. Commissioner Reem inquired about fihe height of other buildings located throughout the city. Mr. Warren pointed out the number of stories of various buildings in the city. Commissioner Roche asked about the city's Community Center being in competition with a hotel and water park. Mr. Warren responded that the two will be different facilities and should not be in competition since the hotel water pazk will be for hotel guests only and not open to the public. Further discussion ensued regarding the draft ordinance amendment. The Commission posed no objections to the ordinance aznendment. ACTION TO RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 35 OF THE CITY ORDINANCES REGARDING PERMITTED USES IN THE C 1 A SERVICE/OFFICE DISTRICT Commissioner Roche made a motion, seconded by Commissioner Rahn to recommend to the City Council an Ordinance Amending Chapter 35 of the City Ordinances Regarding Pemutted Uses in the C1A Service/Office District. Voting in favor: Chair Willson, Comrnissioners Rahn, Reem and Roche. The motion passed unanimously. DISCUSSION ITEM DRAFT ORDINANCE AIVIENDING CHAPTER 35 RELATING TO RENTAL DWELLINGS AND NON-CONFORMING USES Mr. Warren explained that this ordinance amendment was on the City Council's agenda and they referred the amendment to Chapter 12 to the Housing Commission for review and comment and the amendment to Chapter 35 to the Planning Comxnission for review and comment. Mr. Warren directed the Cominission to Chapter 35-111, Subdivision 5& 7, regarding nonconforming uses. 3-31-OS Page 2 He explained what constitutes a nonconfomung use and how a property can be `grandfathered' in creating a non-conforming use following a zoning change. Mr. Warren noted that the language that is to be added to Subdivision 5 is a manda.ted change by the State Legislature. This allows an exception to the prohibition for rebuilding following 50% destruction of a nonconforming use provided a building perxnit to rebuild is applied for within 180 days of when the property is daznaged. The City Attorney has advised that this language should be added to the Zoning Ordinance. Mr. Warren explained that the proposed Subdivision 7 is new language that would aclaiowledge that a nonconforming duplex in an Rl zone would lose its status if no rental license or certification is filed for a two yeaz period. Commissioner Rahn inquired if a non-confomling property were destroyed by more than 50 percent, would an owner be allowed to build a structure that is substantially larger that what existed prior to its destruction. Mr. Warren responded that generally the original footprint must be used and it cannot be altered, enlarged or rebuilt when a non-confornung use is destroyed. Mr. Warren further explained Chapter 35-111, Subdivision 7 regazding rental license requirements of nonconforming uses, specifically two faxnily homes in the Rl (One Faznily Dwelling) zone. He explained the history of tracking and establishing non-conforming two family homes when they exist in the R-1 zone. The Commission further discussed the ordinance amendment and asked about city requirements for licensing of single family homes. Mr. Warren briefly explained how the rental license program is administered and wha.t is required of a homeowner of a two family home when it is not actually being used as rental. He further explained the proposed amendment to Chapter 12 regazding certification of two family homes which would create an exemption from licensing requirements. Further discussion ensued regazding the draft ordinance amendment. The Commission posed no objections to the ordinance amendment. ACTION TO RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 35 OF THE CITY ORDINANCES REGARDING NON-CONFORMING DUPLEX PROPERTIES IN TI-� Rl ZONING DISTRICT. Commissioner Reem made a motion, seco�ded by Commissioner Rahn to recommend to the City Council an Ordinance Amending Chapter 35 of the City Ordinances Regarding Non-Conforming Duplex Properties in the R-1 Zoning District. Voting in favor: Chair Willson, Commissioners Rahn, Reem and Roche. The motion passed unanimously OTHER BUSINESS Chair Willson reminded the Commission that the next meetings of the Opportunity Site Task Force will be Apri16 and Apri113, 2005. 3-31-OS Page 3 Mr. Warren stated that there will be two business items for the Apri114, 2005, Planning Commission meeting. There was no other business. ADJOURNMENT There was a motion by Commissioner Reem, seconded by Commissioner Roche, to adjourn the Planning Commission meeting.
