LOC ATED AT 7216 BROOKLYN BOULEVARD AS PART OF 'I KE BROOKLYN
BOULEVARD REDEVEL PMENT PROGRAM
The City Manager advised the owner /occupancy of this single - family property has indicated
an interest in selling so no relocation costs will be involved.
The Community Development Director commented this property could become a focal point
as the entrance into Brooklyn Center, such as called for in the Brooklyn Boulevard
Streetscape Plan. He reviewed the property and potential funding. It was noted while this
property is not blighted in the usual sense of the term, its location is the primary negative
aspects
Commissioner Scott supported getting a market value for this property. She indicated she
does not support the property being used as the entryway into Brooklyn Center because it
is on the wrong side of the street and, perhaps, more of an exit point.
In response to Commissioner Rosene, the Community Development Director advised the
property owner may be interested in purchasing the house from the City and inoving it,
which would save demolition costs.
