WHEREAS, Planning Commission Application No. 2002-006 submitted by Westbrook Development, Inc. proposes rezoning from C-2 (Commerce) and R-1 (One Family Residence) to PUD/C-2 of a 5.6 acre site located to the northeast quadrant of 69"' Avenue North and Brooklyn Boulevard; and WHEREAS, the proposal comprehends the rezoning of the above mentioned property and development plan approval for a 34,228 sq. ft., four building mixed use commercial/retail development on the above mentioned site. Said development proposal includes a 3,960 sq. ft. Super America convenience store/gas station/car wash on the proposed Lot 1; a 4,230 sq. ft. restaurant, retail or office building on the proposed Lot 2; a 21,500 sq. ft. multi-tenant commercial building on the proposed Lot 3; and a 4,538 sq. ft. Culver's Restaurant on the proposed Lot 4; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a duly called public hearing on May 30, 2002, when a staff report and public testimony regarding the rezoning and site and building plan were received; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission recommended approval of Application No. 2002-006 by adopting Planning Commission Resolution No. 2002-02 on May 30, 2002; and WHEREAS, THE City Council considered Application No. 2002-006 at its June 10, 2002 meeting; and WHEREAS, the City Council has considered this Planned Unit Development request 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 of the City's Zoning Ordinance, 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. 2002-006 submitted by Westbrook Development, Inc. be approved in light of the following considerations: 1. The Planned Unit Development 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. 2002-75 3. The utilization of the property as proposed under this Planned Unit Development rezoning is considered a reasonable use of the property and will conform with city ordinance standards except for allowing a less than 15 ft. greenstrip along the Brooklyn Boulevard and 70' Avenue North rights of way in the location of a proposed convenience store/gas station/car wash; and to allow parking and a portion of a drive lane to encroach in a 35 ft. buffer area located along the east side of the site. These modifications from the C-2 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. 6. In light of the above considerations, it is believed that the guidelines for evaluating re-zonings 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.
