NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Brooklyn Center that Application No. 2005-015 submitted by the Luther Company Limited Partnership be approved based upon of the following considerations: 1. The Planned Unit Development proposal is compatible with the standards, purposes and intent of the Planned Unit Development section of the City's Zoning Ordinance. 2. The Planned Unit Development proposal will allow for the utilization of 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. RESOLUTION NO. 2005-156 3. The utilization of the property as proposed under the Planned Unit Development Rezoning is considered a reasonable use of the property and will conform with ordinance standards except for allowing automobile repair to abut residential property, a less than 15 ft. green strip adjacent to Brooklyn Boulevard right of way and not requiring two parcels that are under common ownership and proposed for common use to be required to be replatted into a single lot. These modifications from the Zoning Ordinance standards are justified on the basis of the development being an appropriate redevelopment of this area and that they are offset or mitigated by various factors contained in the approved site plan. 4. The Planned Unit Development proposal is considered consistent with the recommendations of the City's Comprehensive Plan for this area of the city. 5. The Planned Unit Development proposal appears to be a good long range use of the existing land and this redevelopment can be considered an asset to the community. 1 6. Based upon 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 the proposal is, therefore, in the best interest of the community.
