Approval of a final site plan by the Planning Commission and City Council. 4. Hennepin County approval of the improvements to the 71 Avenue/Brooklyn Boulevard signalized intersection. 5. City approval of a street improvement project to 71 Avenue. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by t3' the City Council of the City of Brooklyn Center that Application No. 2010 -005 submitted by Welsh Construction, LLC be approved based upon of the following considerations: 1. The Planned Unit Development proposal is compatible with the standards o p p p p p� ses and intent of the Planned Unit Development section of the City's Zoning Ordinance. RESOLUTION NO. 2010 -72 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. 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 interior structure and parking setbacks and location of standard drainage and utility easements along interior side lot lines. 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 development 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. 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. � C Aril 12 2010 Date Mayor ATTEST: City Clerk The motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was duly seconded by member Tim Roche and upon vote being taken thereon, the following voted in favor thereof: Tim Willson, Kay Lasman, Tim Roche, Dan Ryan, and Mark Yelich ;.; and the following voted against the same: none; whereupon said resolution was declared duly passed and adopted.
