The Director of Planning & Inspection stated that the g ara e would be three feet g from the new lot line, but that three feet is a required setback for a garage. Councilmember Hawes inquired if the applicant has agreed with the recommended utility easements. The Director of Planning & Inspection responded affirmatively. Councilmember Theis noted that the shape of the lot would be quite irregular, and inquired if all the setbacks could be met with this irregular size.

He added that there may be surplus property y p ert from the highway P P de department, that Y p t could be purchased which could change the setback requirement on the west side. Councilmember Hawes inquired if this decision would have any bearing on River 11 -10 -86 -4- I Ridge Park, The Director of Planning & Inspection stated that the issue being looked at by the ad hoc committee would be confined to the east side of Lyndale Avenue.

He noted that this park would not have hockey facilities and for that reason there would not be as much maintenance. There was a motion by Councilmember Scott and seconded by Councilmember Theis to concur with the recommendation from the Park & Recreation Commission and to flood the skating rink at Freeway Park. The motion passed unanimously. AGREEMENT FOR THE DISPOSITION OF THE DUOOS BROTHERS AMERICAN LEGION POST NO. 630 LIQUOR LICENSE CASE The City Manager briefly reviewed the agreement which had been negotiated with the American Legion Post. Mayor Nyquist stated that he did not understand why the City would want to revoke their license and then encourage reapplication for a 1987 license. The City Attorney stated that it is very important for the Y Y Y P revocation to occur because it would give the Council more leverage for the next license. He stated that if the American Legion Post intends to apply for a new license, they would have to remove certain people from their management scheme in order for the police department to approve the license. He added that the revocation allows the staff and Council to have more input on the new management. He noted that the main focus and source of the problem is the current management staff. Councilmember Lhotka inquired if the Police Department would continue to make investigations whenever a change was made in the management staff. The City Manager responded affirmatively. Councilmember Lhotka stated that there appeared to be a lack of concern on the American Legion Post's part since they were not present at the meeting this evening. The City Attorney stated that it had been agreed that the Legion Post would not be present this evening to create a demonstration. Councilmember Scott stated that she was greatly concerned with the short amount of time that the Legion Post could actually be closed. She noted that it would be possible for the Post to be selling by January 1. The City Attorney stated that even if the Council did approve a 1987 license for the Legion Post, they could set a beginning date other than the first of January. Mayor Nyquist inquired why the City would want to wait until December 25 to revoke the license if the violations were that clear. The City Attorney stated that the periods starting December 25 would most likely be the busiest time of the year for the Post and affect them most. He added that the Council did not have to approve this agreement and that the date could be changed. Councilmember Scott stated that she did not want to have any additional money or time spent on investigation to speed up the process for the 1987 license. The City Manager stated that City staff always requests 30 days in which to do an investigation of this type, and that the Police Department would not neglect other duties to finish this investigation early. Councilmember Lhotka stated that he felt it was important that the Legion Post understand the Council's position and the severity of the violation. Councilmember Theis inquired if there would be anyway the City could be assured that the old management would not be operating the establishment under the guise of a new management. The City Attorney stated that if the Legion Club does 11 -10 -86 -7- submit a 1987 application it must be treated as a totally new license. He stated that the Council would have to be tough and deny the license if the Council were unhappy with the management staff. He added that the club has a history of having a management staff who has taken over simply because no one else wants it. The City Manager stated that there are also some very good people who are members of the Club and hopefully they will step forward and take over the management. Councilmember Scott stated that she would not be happy if, after being given another chance, the Legion Club has violation problems again. Councilmember Theis stated there would be one way to solve that problem and that would be to not renew the license. There was a motion by Councilmember Lhotka and seconded by Councilmember Theis to approve the agreement for the disposition of the Duoos Brothers American Legion Post No. 630 liquor license case. The motion passed unanimously. ADJOURNMENT There was a motion by Councilmember Scott and seconded by Councilmember Hawes to adjourn the meeting. The motion passed unanimously.

Brooklyn Center n 6301 Shingle Creek Parkway Brooklyn Center, Minnesota 55430 n„� 1986 b , November 21, 1986 Earle Brown Days TO: The Honorable Mayor Dean Nyquist Members of the City Council City Manager FROM: Phil Cohen, Chairman 75th Anniversary Committee SUBJECT: Final Committee Report With the Time Capsule ceremony that was held on Sunday, November 16th, the 75th Anniversary celebration of the City of Brooklyn Center has come to a grand and glorious close - if we do say so ourselves. The efforts of the 75th Committee conclude after planning done in 34 executive committee meetings and more than 40 subcommittee meetings. First, the Committee says a deep and sincere thanks to the Mayor, City Council and City staff for the great cooperation that made the work of the Committee a much easier task. What we noted as the celebration proceeded was the total involvement of the "community ". It was a unique chemistry that seemed to knit the total elements of this city together in this 75th year of Brooklyn Center. The fact that the City was also designated as an All- America City gave everything another boost that made the "community" feel good. When I refer to "community ", I offer in the context of the business community, the local government community (city and school districts) and the citizens of Brooklyn Center. The ability to raise the necessary funds to carry out the g rand events was certainly made much easier with the generous financial participation by the City. We thank you again for that. FINANCIAL REPORT AND FINAL CONTRIBUTION TO THE COMMITTEE: Please find attached the financial report submitted by Mike Nelson, Chairman of the budget committee. The November 14, 1986 balance is $21,382, with a few bills outstanding. This will be transferred to the Earle Brown Days Committee to be used for start up of the 1987 celebration. At the August 11th City Council meeting when we made the last report, we requested that the final contribution of $2,500 be deferred until a final audit was made to see if the contribution was needed. Based upon the financial report, the Committee recommends that the $2,500 final contribution by the City is not needed. Therefore, the City Council could now consider the action necessary to move the contribution from deferred to one of officially rescinding that amount.

All 1986 finallsts have been invited to make oral presentations In Ohio in mid-November at which time nine winners will be selected. Brooklyn Center is the only Minnesota finalist. The con- test drew 93 applications. "It would be trite to say that I'm excited," Mayor Dean Nyquist AWARD (Continued on Page 7) A ward • • • (Continued from Page 1) said. commenting on the selection. "1 almost jumped out of my chair when I got the call from New York." A comm liter made up of community volunteers produced the C Brooklyn enter application for the award after several weeks of deliberation. Its major thrust ultimately centered on three com- munity -hased projects: Brookwood, a special housing project for the elderly; the Peacemaker Center, a social services facility staffed by volunteers to provide a variety of support services to community residents: and the Brooklyn Center Mediation Pro - jecl, an alternative dispute resolution program offered through the Peacemaker Center. Earlier this year, Brooklyn Center received an award at the annual Mayor's conference in Anchorage, Alaska, for its achievements in development of a public - private partnership process in addressing problems of the youth. "It's great to he a part of a community In which our citizens are so progressive, warm, and caring." Nyquist said. A delegation is being selected to go to Ohio in November to make oral presentations. - Members of the Brooklyn Center All- America City Committee, in addition to Nyquist, are Jim Moffet, Ilealth Central Corpora- tion. chairman; Geralyn Barone, assistant to the city manager; Phil Cohen, former mayor; Barbara Jensen, Brooklyn Center Mediation Project; Lonni McCauley, Brooklyn Center Chamber of Commerce: the Rev.

NYQUIST CITY HALL Mayor CITY 6301 Shingle Creek Parkway Res: 533 -0774 of Brooklyn Center, MN 55430 s: 533 -7272 ][B:fR, 00 K LY N Telephone 612/561 -5440 CENTER OFFICE OF THE MAYOR November 16, 1986 Dear Fellow Citizens of the Year 2011: The optimistic person that I am, I have addressed you as Fellow Citizens because I plan to be with you - - -not as Mayor to be sure but as one of those fortunate enough to be a resident and citizen of Brooklyn Center. The 75th anniversary year of 1986 has been a very eventful and exciting one in our City. It has been particularly rewarding that the citizens of Brooklyn Center permitted me to be their mayor during these exciting days. The success of the City and the success of the 75th anniversary can best be summarized as PEOPLE. In reality, that's what it's all about. Throughout the past several years there has been an increased sense of cooperation and purpose from various segments of the community including individuals, the business community, the churches, the service organizations and clubs. They have come together in what could be viewed as a clima.c in this 75th anniversary year by capturing the honor of being named as an All- America City. But rather than refer to it as a climax, I prefer to think of it as a milestone. Thanks to the community leaders of 25 years ago, our community is a better community today than 25 years ago. I hope that the citizens of Brooklyn Center can echo that in the year 2011. And I'm confident that you will be able to do so. One of the interesting and exciting observations that I have made during this 75th anniversary year is that the discussion and emphasis has been primarily on the future rather than the past. All too often these kinds of celebrations dwell on the historical past rather than the (NOT PRINTED AT GOVERNMENT EXPENSE) Page 2 exciting potention and challenges of the future. Perhaps that's one of the factors that makes Brooklyn Center a unique and progressive City and that is consistent with the Apostle Paul's words in Philippians 3:13 -14: "...But I do concentrate on this: I leave the past behind and with hands outstretched to whatever lies ahead I go straight for the goal - - -my reward the honor of being called by God in Christ." (Phillips Translation) I trust that your centennial celebration in the year 2011 will exceed the excitement and meaningfulness of the 75th anniversary. And I hope that the Brooklyn Center of 2011 will be a better community than the Brooklyn Center of 1986 and that they will embrace the spirit of Phillipians 2:1 -4.

MINUTES OF THE PROCEEDINGS OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF BROOKLYN CENTER IN THE COUNTY OF HENNEPIN AND THE STATE OF MINNESOTA REGULAR SESSION NOVEMBER 13, 1986 CITY HALL CALL TO ORDER The Planning Commission met in regular session and was called to order by Chairman George Lucht at 7:30 p.m. ROLL CALL Chairman George Lucht, Commissioners Molly Malecki, Carl Sandstrom, Lowell Ainas, Wallace Bernards, and Ann Wallerstedt. Also present were Director of Planning and Inspection Ronald Warren, City Engineer Bo Spurrier, and Planner Gary Shallcross. Chairman Lucht noted that Commissioner Nelson had called to say he would be unable to attend and was excused. APPROVAL OF MINUTES - October 30, 1986 Commissioner Bernards asked whether a 5th condition had indeed been added to the approval of Application No. 86039• The Secretary and Chairman Lucht responded in the affirmative. Motion by Commissioner Ainas seconded by Commissioner Malecki to approve the minutes of the October 30, 1986 Planning Commission meeting as submitted. Voting in favor: Chairman Lucht, Commissioners Malecki, Ainas, Bernards and Wallerstedt. Voting against: none. Not voting: Commissioner Sandstrom. Following the Chairman's explanation, Chairman Lucht asked whether Mr. Ron Kladt, the applicant for Application No. 86041, was present. As there was no response, he asked the Secretary to introduce the next item of business. APPLICATION NO. 85004 (Cathy Rausch) The Secretary then introduced the second item on the Planning Commission's agenda, a request for an amendment to the special use permit approval for a home beauty shop at 3000 63rd Avenue North to allow a nonresident employee for two and one half years in order for Mrs. Rausch to obtain a shop manager's license. The Secretary reviewed the contents of the staff report (See Planning Commission Information Sheet for Application No. 85004 attached). The Secretary explained that the nonresident employee referred to in the application is the shop manager who must be present until Mrs. Rausch receives her shop manager's license. Commissioner Bernards asked whether another extension could be granted if the time acknowledged in this approval were not adequate. The Secretary responded in the affirmative, stating that there is no limit in the ordinance on the length of time for a nonresident employee, rather the conditions of the Special Use Permit limit this matter. Chairman Lucht asked the applicant whether she had anything to add. Mrs. Rausch answered in the negative. PUBLIC HEARING (Application No. 85004) Chairman Lucht then opened the meeting for a public hearing and asked whether anyone present wished to speak. Mrs. Wykrent, 3006 63rd Avenue North, stated that she was opposed to on- street parking. She stated that that was her only concern and that 11 -13 -86 _1_ r she had no other objection to the home occupation. The Secretary asked Mrs. Wykrent if she had experienced any problems with on- street parking in association with the home business. Mrs. Wykrent responded in the negative. She stated that she simply wanted to reiterate that concern. The Secretary acknowledged this concern and explained that there were no other changes to the home occupation t om recommended except g P the extension of the time for the nonresident employee. He stated that on- street parking would still be prohibited. Mrs. Ann Britton of 3001 63rd Avenue North also expressed the same concern that she was opposed to on- street parking. Chairman Lucht asked whether anyone present wished to speak. Hearing no one, he called for a motion to close the public hearing. CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING Motion by Commissioner Sandstrom seconded by Commissioner Ainas to close the public hearing. The motion passed unanimously. ACTION RECOMMENDING APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO APPLICATION NO. 85004 ( Cathy Rausch) Motion by Commissioner Sandstrom seconded by Commissioner Malecki to recommend approval of the amendment to condition #11 of Application No. 85004, in the following form: 11. Special use permit approval acknowledges the presence of one non- resident employee until July 11, 1989 for the purpose of the applicant working toward attaining a shop manager's license from the State Board of Cosmetology. At that time, the application shall be brought back to the City Council for review of the number of hours authorized in condition #4. Voting in favor: Chairman Lucht, Commissioners Malecki, Sandstrom, Bernards and Wallerstedt. Voting against: none. The motion passed. APPLICATION NO. 86041 (Ron Kladt) The Secretary introduced the next item of business, a request for special use permit approval to operate a suntan studio and conduct aerobic exercise classes in the office building at 6040 Earle Brown Drive. The Secretary reviewed the contents of the staff report (see Planning Commission Information Sheet for Application No. 86041 attached). Commissioner Bernards asked whether the Building Code would address noise concerns. He stated that the music used for the aerobics classes can often be audible in another room. The Planner brought the floor plan for the tenant space to Commissioner Bernards and showed him the location of the aerobics exercise room. He noted that it was adjacent to another tenant along one wall. Chairman Lucht then asked the applicant whether he had anything to add. Mr. Ron Kladt stated that the existing tenant space did not require any additional building improvements in order to conduct the classes. He acknowledged that sound transmission would be a concern and that the classes would be held for six months on a trial basis. He stated that if the landlord passed along any complaints regarding noise that the classes could either be shifted to evening hours or dropped altogether. 11 -13 -86 -2- Commissioner Malecki asked whether there would be facilities for showers, etc. Mr. Kladt answered that there would be no other facilities in the tenant space other than the suntan booths. PUBLIC HEARING (Application No. 86041) Chairman Lucht then opened the meeting for a public hearing and asked whether anyone present wished to speak regarding the application. Hearing no one, he called for a motion to close the public hearing. CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING Motion by Commissioner Sandstrom seconded by Commissioner Ainas to close the public hearing. The motion passed unanimously. ACTION RECOMMENDING APPROVAL OF APPLICATION NO. 86041 (Ron Kladt) Motion by Commissioner Ainas seconded by Commissioner Sandstrom to recommend approval of Application No. 86041, subject to the following conditions: 1. The operation shall be inspected on an annual basis by the City Sanitarian. Any compliance ordinance orders issued by the Sanitarian shall be promptly complied with. 2. The special use permit is subject to all applicable codes, ordinances and regulations and any violation thereof shall be grounds for revocation. 3. The special use permit is issued to the applicant as operator and is nontransferable. (This condition is not intended to apply to the sale of the existing operation, but to the introduction of an entirely new operation in the same space or to the expansion of some other use requiring special use permit approval). 4. Building plans are subject to review and approval by the Building Official with respect to applicable codes prior to the issuance of permits. Voting in favor: Chairman Lucht, Commissioners Ma.lecki, Sandstrom, Ainas, Bernards and Wallerstedt. Voting against: none. The motion passed. APPLICATION NO. 86040 (Hoyt Development) Chairman Lucht then moved to the next item of business, a request for site plan and special use permit approval to modify the existing parking lot at Palmer Lake Plaza (6850, 60, 70 Shingle Creek Parkway) and install an access drive from the site onto 69th Avenue North. The Secretary stated that the applicant had contacted the staff earlier about the possibility of tabling the application. He stated that the application was kept because the agenda's had been prepared and notices had been sent for a public hearing. He noted that there was no one present for the public hearing other than the applicant. He stated, therefore, that the Planning Commission could lay the matter over if it wished. Chairman Lucht then asked the applicant whether he had anything to add. Mr. Brad Hoyt stated that he had expected to address concerns that might be raised at the public hearing. Noting that no one was present concerning the application, he stated that there must not be many problems with it and stated that he would like to offer his reasons to the Planning Commission for the proposed access. Chairman Lucht asked the Secretary to present the staff report first. 11 -13 -86 -3- The Secretary reviewed the contents of the staff report (see Planning Commission Information Sheet for Application No. 86040 attached). The Secretary explained that a draft resolution for denial for Part B of the application had not been prepared because the staff expected the applicant to request the matter to be tabled. Chairman Lucht asked whether any residents got notices of the public hearing. The Secretary stated that notices would have gone to the residents at the townhouse development south of Shingle Creek Parkway. Chairman Lucht commented that notices would not have been sent, therefore, to residents north of 69th Avenue North. The Secretary agreed. Commissioner Wallerstedt asked for an explanation as to where the access would be relative to the bridge over Shingle Creek. The Secretary indicated on an overhead transparency the location of the proposed access approximately 450 ft. west of the Shingle Creek bridge. Commissioner Malecki asked whether there was a bike trail in that area. The City Engineer responded in the affirmative. The Secretary briefly explained the realignment of Shingle Creek Parkway which would become a through street with 69th Avenue west of the present intersection of Shingle Creek Parkway and 69th Avenue. He also explained that 69th Avenue North east of that intersection would "T" into the through street. Commissioner Wallerstedt stated that she agreed that there would be cut- through traffic going through the Palmer Lake Plaza parking lot from Shingle Creek Parkway to 69th if the new access were put in. The Secretary showed the access locations on the site plan. He also noted the access for trucks across from Xerxes Avenue. Chairman Lucht then called on the applicant to speak. Mr. Brad Hoyt of Hoyt Development explained to the Commission that the reason for the requested access onto 69th Avenue North was not because of the traffic congestion on Shingle Creek Parkway. He explained that the development at Palmer Lake Plaza is really three buildings, not one. He stated that the easterly building is an 18' high bulk warehouse with dock doors. The westerly wing, he explained, is an office /service wing with wholesale distributors and drive -in doors. The north wing, he stated, is an office building. He stated that the tenants who are in the office building, or wish to lease space in the office building, want to screen the service doors on the west side of the building. He also explained that office tenants do not want to drive by the truck entrance or the service area. He explained that the proposed berming in the westerly parking lot is to screen those service doors from the rest of the parking lot. Mr. Hoyt again stated that the request was not based on traffic concerns. He stated that the real, ignment of Shingle Creek Parkway in the future should actually reduce the number of trips onto 69th Avenue North since Shingle Creek Parkway will be a much easier route to take. Mr. Hoyt also stated that there would not likely be any truck traffic coming in the access of 69th since the loading dock area is served directly off Shingle Creek Parkway. Mr. Hoyt also stated that there must have been truck traffic from the City garage in the past that used 69th Avenue North. Mr. Hoyt pointed out that the lack of office occupancy in the building has resulted in a devaluation of the property and a reduction of taxes. He explained that the orientation of the building is difficult and that people coming to the building have to drive by the loading dock area before getting to the office building. He stated that the exposure of the site to any residential neighborhood is somewhat distant. 11 -13 -86 -q- Mr. Hoyt also asked when the road improvement would take place. He stated that he has waited a long time for similar types of improvements at other locations that he manages. Mr. Hoyt stated that he felt that the access was inadequate at present and that tenants need more access to 69th Avenue North which is the side of the building that appeals to office tenants. Mr. Hoyt also explained the existing planter in the parking lot and stated that it was constructed to cover a low spot in the lot that had sunk 14 since its original construction. He stated that the drainage problem has not been alleviated by the island and that the low area would be filled in. Regarding the possibility of cut - through traffic, Mr. Hoyt stated that that was more a concern of the owner than the City. He stated that speed bumps might be installed to discourage cars from cutting through the lot. Chairman Lucht pointed out that the property had been zoned industrial along with other land in the industrial park. He stated that the special use permit to allow an office use on the site was not an excuse to extend the access to 69th Avenue North. He stated that the office use would have to live within the same constraints as other uses in the industrial park. Mr. Hoyt stated that he has built a lot of office projects in industrial districts. He stated that this project is somewhat obsolete because of the mixture of uses and the orientation of the building. The Secretary pointed out that Palmer Lake Plaza is only about seven years old. He stated that the office use on the site was allowed by special use permit. He stated that one of the concerns of the City is regarding the compatibility of industrial uses with adjacent land uses. The Secretary also pointed out that the Assessor devalued the property because of physical deterioration and lack of maintenance, not the lack of an access. Mr. Hoyt agreed with this statement, but added that access is important to marketing the building to potential tenants. He stated that it is an issue at present with two or three tenants. He also stated that truck traffic would not use the access off 69th. Chairman Lucht stated that the concern was not simply over truck traffic, but the total traffic generation that would be experienced on 69th Avenue North. Commissioner Sandstrom suggested the possibility of widening the access onto Shingle Creek Parkway to allow greater freedom of movement of that access. Mr. Hoyt stated that traffic movements are not really a problem at the site. He explained that the problem was really the image of the development from Shingle Creek Parkway. Commissioner Sandstrom stated that he did not think that the driveway onto 69th would change the appearance of the building. Mr. Hoyt explained that the image of the building from Shingle Creek Parkway is poor in that office tenants need to see the building from a different prospective which an access off 69th Avenue North would provide. The Planner pointed out that providing an access onto 69th to appeal to office traffic presupposes that there is commercial traffic on 69th. He stated that that is not the case for the most part at present and that the City wants to avoid inviting commercial traffic onto 69th. The Planner suggested that Mr. Hoyt work to dress up the exposure to Shingle Creek Parkway to hide the loading area better. Commissioner Ainas asked whether there was a grade differential problem between 69th Avenue North and the existing parking lot which would make the grade of the proposed driveway too steep. The City Engineer responded that the difference in grade is not significant. PUBLIC HEARING (Application No. 860+0) Chairman Lucht then opened the meeting for a public hearing. Noting that no one was present to speak other than the applicant, he called for a motion to close the public hearing. 11 -13 -86 -5- CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING Motion by Commissioner Sandstrom seconded by Commissioner Ainas to close the public hearing. The motion passed unanimously. MOTION RECOMMENDING APPROVAL OF PART A (Application No. 86040) Motion by Commissioner Sandstrom seconded by Commissioner Ainas to recommend approval of Part A of Application No. 86040. While the motion was on the floor, Commissioner Malecki wondered if the applicant would still want to do the improvements outlined in Part A of the application if he could not have the access. She suggested possibly tabling the application to look at alternative improvements. She also asked whether the City Engineer has evaluated the drainage problem. The City Engineer explained that no grading plans had been submitted. He stated that he would work with the applicant to modify the parking lot and the accesses to the site, if desired. Commissioner Wallerstedt asked the applicant whether he still had an interest in Part A, if Part B were denied. Mr. Hoyt stated that he had questions regarding the conditions. He stated that he did not see the need for a performance bond and also requested that he be allowed to use asphalt curb around the landscaped island rather than concrete curb and gutter. Chairman Lucht explained that the City has a longstanding policy of requiring B612 curb and gutter around all parking and driving areas, including parking lot islands. The Planner also explained that the proposed landscaped island affected the amount of parking available for tenants in the building land that there were other deferred improvements which need to be completed. Commissioner Sandstrom suggested that the Commission at least act on Part A. Commissioner Wallerstedt asked again whether Mr. Hoyt wanted to proceed with Part A if Part B (the access onto 69th) were not allowed. Mr. Hoyt stated that he would like to confer with his partners as to what to do. The Secretary recommended tabling the application. He stated that the staff could discuss the conditions with the applicant. WITHDRAWAL OF MOTION REGARDING PART A Application No. 86040 (Hoyt Development) Commissioner. Sandstrom then withdrew his motion to recommend approval of Part A of Application No. 86040 and Commissioner Ainas also withdrew the second. Chairman Lucht then polled the Commission as to their feelings about Part B of the application regarding the proposed access. All of the Commissioners stated that they were opposed to allowing the access. ACTION TABLING APPLICATION NO. 86040 AND DIRECTING STAFF TO PREPARE A RESOLUTION OF DENIAL Motion by Commissioner Wallerstedt seconded by Commissioner Sandstrom to table Application No. 86040 and direct staff to prepare a resolution of denial concerning Part B of the application. Voting in favor: Chairman Lucht, Commissioners Malecki, Sandstrom, Ainas, Bernards and Wallerstedt. Voting against: none. The motion passed. ADJOURNMENT Motion by Commissioner Sandstrom seconded by Commissioner Ainas to adjourn the meeting of the Planning Commission. The motion passed unanimously. The Planning Commission adjourned at 9:12 p.m. Chairman 11 -13 -86 -6- Planning Commission Information Sheet Application No. 85004 Applicant: Duane and Cathy Rausch Location: 3000 63rd Avenue North Request: Special Use Permit Amendment The applicant requests an amendment to the special use permit for a home beauty shop granted under Application No. 85004 on March 11, 1985. The property in question is a single- family residence in the Rl zone, bounded by Xerxes Avenue North on the east, by 63rd Avenue North on the south, and by single - family homes on the west and north. Approval of the original special use permit acknowledged the employment on the premises of one non - resident on a part -time basis. That acknowledgement, however, was subject to Condition No. 11 of the City Council approval which called for review of the special use permit and elimination of the non - resident employee after 18 months. The applicant, Mrs. Cathy Rausch, has submitted a letter (attached) in which she requests that condition #11 of the original approval be amended to allow 30 months additional time to have a non - resident employee. She explains that, since the original approval, she has become pregnant and the non - resident employee has quit. Her goal was to complete 2700 hours of work under the supervision of a licensed shop manager so that she could qualify for a shop manager's license of her own. That is still her goal, but with the demands of caring for her new child, she can only work part -time for the first year. Mrs. Rausch, therefore, requests two and a half years additional time to fulfill the requirement of 2700 hours as a hair stylist /beautician in order to receive her shop manager's license. Once the shop license is obtained, a non - resident employee will not be necessary. Staff see no reason to deny the requested extension of time. The concern of the City Council in applying condition #11 was over traffic. On- street parking was prohibited. All access to the shop would be from the driveway off Xerxes Avenue North (see site plan) . The reason for phasing out the non - resident employee is that a two - person shop will generate more traffic than a one - person shop. Limiting the operation eventually to a single person limits the long -run traffic impact of 2700 hours of beauty services should be roughly the same over 2.5 years as over 1.5 years, but spread out more. So long as parking is off - street on improved space at 3000 63rd Avenue North, the impact of the proposed home occupation should be limited, even when there are two people working in the shop. Accordingly, we recommend approval of the rquested amendment by revising condition #11 to read as follows: 11. Special use permit approval acknowledges the presence of one non- resident employee until July 1, 1989 for the purpose of the applicant working toward attaining a shop manager's license from the State Board of Cosmetology. At that time, the application shall be brought back to the City Council for review of the number of hours authorized in condition #4. 11 -13 -86 Planning Commission Information Sheet Application No. 86041 Applicant: Ron Kladt Location: 6040 Earle Brown Drive Request: Special Use The applicant requests special use permit approval to operate a suntan studio and exercise classes in the office building at 6040 Earle Brown Drive. The property in question is zoned C2 and is bounded on the north by the Earle Brown Office Tower, on the east by Highway 100, on the south by vacant C2 zoned land, and on the west by Earle Brown Drive. Suntan studios and athletic clubs are special uses in the C2 zoning district. The suntan studio, known as Riviera Tanning Studio, is located on the first floor of the office building at 6040 Earle Brown Drive. A building permit for tenant improvements for the suntan studio was issued in April, 1985 absent the approval of a special use permit. The applicant now wishes to use approximately 550 sq. ft. of that tenant space in a large L- shaped room for having aerobic dancing classes. Staff have advised and the applicant has agreed that the exercise classes and the suntan studio can be combined in a single special use permit application. The applicant has submitted no written material addressing the Standards for Special Use Permits from Section 35 -220 (attached). The application form contains a reference to "aerobic exercises." It also states that the hours of operation would be 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Saturday. As special uses, the tanning studio and the exercise classes are subject to the standards for special uses contained in Section 35 -220 (attached). Staff see no conflict with these standards posed by the existing tanning studio in the office building. The only question pertaining to the conducting of exercise classes that occurs to us is whether on -site parking at 6040 Earle Brown Drive is sufficient to meet the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance for office space within the building and what staff interpret as an athletic club or recreation center type of use. The entire building has a gross floor area of 55,466 sq. ft. There are 308 parking spaces on the site. An athletic club requires 20 parking spaces for the first 1,000 sq. ft. of gross floor area or fraction thereof (Section 35 -704 attached). Since the exercise classes will occupy less than 1,000 sq. ft. within the building, the parking requirement for that use is 20 spaces. But, because office space requires less parking per 1,000 sq. ft. than the 20 required for the first 1,000 sq. ft. for the recreational use, the full 1,000 sq. ft. may be deducted from the gross floor area of the building. The parking requirement for the building is, therefore, as follows: 54,466 sq. ft. /(.0005 x 54,466) + 190 for office + 20 spaces for recreational use 251 spaces for office use + 20 spaces for recreational use. On the basis of the City's ordinance formulas, therefore, the 308 existing stalls exceed the 271 spaces required for the combined uses in the building. (The reason for the excess is that the Nino's restaurant originally occupied space on the first floor and required more parking for that space than office use would). 11 -13 -86 -1- Application No. 86041 continued With respect to the Standards for a Special Use Permit, staff see no conflict posed by the aerobic exercise classes. Accordingly, we recommend approval of the special use permit for both aspects of the operation, subject to at least the following conditions: 1. The operation shall be inspected on an annual basis by the City Sanitarian. Any compliance orders issued by the Sanitarian shall be promptly complied with. 2. The special use permit is subject to all applicable codes, ordinances and regulations and any violation thereof shall be grounds for revocation. 3. The special use permit is issued to the applicant as operator and is nontransferable. (This condition is not intended to apply to the sale of the existing operation, but to the introduction of an entirely new operation in the same space.) 4. Building plans are subject to review and approval by the Building Official with respect to applicable codes prior to the issuance of permits. 11 -13 -86 -2- Planning Commission Information Sheet Application No. 86040 Applicant: Hoyt Development Location: 6850, 60, 70, Shingle Creek Parkway Request: Site and Building Plan /Special Use The applicant requests site plan and special use permit approval to modify the westerly parking lot at Palmer Lake Plaza and to provide an access from that lot onto 69th Avenue North. No building expansion is proposed. The land in question is zoned I -1 and is bounded on the east by Shingle Creek, on the south by Shingle Creek Parkway, on the west by vacant I -1 zoned land, and on the north by 69th Avenue North. Palmer Lake Plaza is an office - warehouse development with one wing containing two stories of office and the other two wings containing primarily industrial space (ware - house, light manufacturing, etc.). Because of the office use of one of the three attached buildings, the site is classified as a special use in the I -1 district. The two proposed actions involve very different zoning and land use concerns. The parking lot modifications concern parking requirements and landscaping. The proposed access onto 69th, however, involves much larger transportation and land use issues. The staff report will deal with the application in two separate parts and we recommend that action on the application also be divided into two separate motions. Part A: Parking Lot The proposed site plan calls for the installation of a large landscape island in the main parking lot to the west of the building. The island would be located in the first row of stalls west of the building, displacing 29 parking spaces. The island would provide screening of the service area on the west side of the building. The plan shows 23 trees in the island, but no size or specie for the plantings has been indicated. The island would be approximately 20' wide and be bermed to a height of 3 feet. An existing landscape island in the west parking lot will be removed. The island was installed by the applicant last year with no acknowledgement from the City. That island runs more or less east -west and was intended to cover a low area in the parking lot. However, the lot has not been regraded and water still drains to this area in the middle of the lot, surrounding the landscape island. Catch basins exist to the north and south of this low area in the middle of the lot. The applicant intends to redirect drainage toward the catch basins by raising the level of the pavement in the middle of the lot. The proposed site plan shows 336 existing parking stalls on the entire site. After installation of the new landscape island, 307 stalls will remain. The site plan also documents 191 additional stalls as proof -of- parking (stalls which can properly fit on the site, but have not been put in place) . The total potential parking of 498 spaces will support about 92,000 sq. ft. of office and 45,000 sq. ft. of industrial space in the overall complex. At present, 62,572 sq. ft. has been improved for office occupancy. It, therefore, appears that the proof -of- parking plan is sufficient for the foreseeable future. Staff recommend that the applicant be required to enter into a restrictive covenant requiring the installation of proof - of- parking stalls upon a determination ;by the City that such stalls are necessary for the proper functioning of the site. 11 -13 -86 _1_ Application No. 86040 continued In general, the proposed modifications to the parking lot are consistent with zoning requirements. Approval of Part A is recommended, subject to at least the following conditions: 1. Drainage improvement plans are subject to review and approval by the City Engineer. 2. B612 curb and gutter shall be provided around the proposed landscape island and along the west side of the existing parking lot. 3• A performance agreement and supporting financial guarantee (in an amount to be determined by the City Manager) shall be submitted prior to issuance of permits for the next new tenant space. 4. The applicant shall enter into a restrictive covenant to provide up to 191 additional stalls on the site upon a determination by the City that such stalls are necessary for the proper function of the site. Said covenant to be filed as a deed restriction at the County. 5. The site plan shall be modified to indicate the following additional information: a) a landscape schedule providing information on specie, size, and quantity of proposed plantings. Plantings located on the plan shall indicate planting type. b) No access onto 69th Avenue North, subject to dispositon of Part B. Part B: Access onto 69th Avenue North The applicant has submitted no written arguments concerning the proposed access onto 69th Avenue North as of Wednesday morning. Staff recommend denial of the proposed access on the basis of transportation planning concerns and land use planning concerns. These concerns are enumerated below. In brief, the traffic problems on Shingle Creek Parkway are short -term and will be remedied by the proposed improvements to the City's Transportation System. Conversely, the consequences of providing an access onto 69th, are long term in their implications for the character of 69th Avenue North as a neighborhood collector and in their land use impact of the industrial park on the residential neighborhood north of 69th. 1. Transportation Approval of an access onto 69th Avenue North would set a precedent which could seriously change the nature of that street over time. It should be kept in mind that 69th, east of Shingle Creek Parkway, is no longer classified as a major thoroughfare and is no longer a County Road. It is a two -lane collector street which serves the residential neighborhood to the north. Access onto 69th from industrial sites south of the street would likely have the following detrimental results: 11 -13 -86 -2- Application No. 86040 continued a) Encourage truck traffic on a two -lane residential collector street. b) Increase the average daily trips (ADT) of all vehicles using 69th. ADT on this stretch of 69th is approximately 7,000 vehicles per day. This is the threshold beyond which widening to four lanes becomes increasingly necessary. c) Potentially widening 69th to four lanes to accommodate increased traffic. This is an extremely expensive proposition which would include acquisition of additional right -of -way from Shingle Creek Parkway to new T.H. 252 probably including the acquisition of some existing structures in the area between Humboldt Avenue and Dupont Avenue. And, of course, the City's reconstruction of the street from a two -lane roadway to a four -lane roadway would be very extensive. d) Access from the industrial area onto 69th would invite a signficant amount of cut - through traffic by motorists wishing to avoid the bottleneck at 69th and Shingle Creek Parkway during the evening rush hours, and from motorists traveling between the residential neighborhood to the north and the commercial and industrial area to the south. The existing traffic problem at 69th and Shingle Creek Parkway is well known to City staff and the City Council. However, plans are being prepared and land has been acquired to realign Shingle Creek Parkway so that it forms a continuous link with 69th Avenue North west of the current intersection. Sixty -ninth (69th) Avenue North will intersect this new through street at right angles, forming a "T" intersection. (See memo from Sy Knapp of November 10, 1986 attached) When this realignment is completed, the existing bottleneck should disappear. Cars which would use the proposed access onto 69th and heading west will soon be at a disadvantage to cars using Shingle Creek Parkway. The access to 69th Avenue as proposed by the applicant would invite cut - through traffic in the short run and become essentially obselete in the long run. On these grounds it is our opinion that standard (d) of Section 35 -220 -2 (attached) and standard 4 of Section 35 -330 3f (also attached) relating to special uses in the I -1 zone would be violated. 2. Land Use Although the proposed access onto 69th is not directly across the street from a residential area (it is across from Palmer Lake Park), the traffic that could be generated on this portion of 69th by this access and others that might follow would, we believe, have a negative impact on the residential neighborhood north of 69th. The result of such accesses onto 69th would be to destroy the present compatibility between the Industrial Park south of 69th and the residential neighborhood north of 69th. The resulting incompatibility would violate standards (a) and (b) of Section 35 -220 and standards 1 and 2 of Section 35- 330.3f which require that special uses not be a nuisance and that they relate well with existing adjacent land uses. The present relationship between the Industrial Park and adjacent residential areas is, on the whole, a good and stable one. An access for Palmer Lake Plaza onto 69th would begin to unravel that stability and could lead to a bad relationship as well as very costly roadway improvements. 11 -13 -86 _3_ Application No. 86040 continued 3. Historical Considerations In addition to planning reasons to deny access onto 69th from the Industrial Park, there is a considerable amount of history behind this policy. Some instances where the policy has been active in the past include: a) The Brooklyn Center Comprehensive Plan (1966) in its policy recommendations for the Northeast Neighborhood stated at point #8 that "the function of these streets" (Humboldt, Lyndale and 69th) "is to move traffic, not to serve adjacent land uses." b) The minutes of the Planning Commission's deliberation of the site and building plan application for the Spec.4 Industrial Building ( #72075, minutes attached) show that denying access to 69th from the Industrial Park was a conscious policy with the first industrial building proposed adjacent to 69th. The conditions of approval for that building and for Spec. 5 and Spec. 6 all explicitly deny any access onto 69th. c) The City garage was for some years the only property in the Industrial Park to have an access onto 69th since Shingle Creek Parkway was not constructed until 1981. Following the completion of Shingle Creek Parkway, the access to 69th Avenue was retained to serve emergency vehicles. However, the City closed that access in 1983 because: 1) the City desired to conform to the precedent of prohibiting access to 69th Avenue; and 2) because of the problems with cut - through traffic - ie. - cut through traffic created problems within the site and at both driveways to 69th and to Shingle Creek Parkway. d) A traffic study by Bather Ringrose Wolsfeld (BRW) on the Earle Brown Farm projected anticipated traffic generations from development of the Earle Brown Farm Commercial and Industrial Park. The study projected over 65,000 daily trips to be generated by development is this area, but made no distribution of that traffic to 69th Avenue North. This was obviously because there would be no access onto 69th from the Industrial Park. e) Former Mayor Phil Cohen, who was on the City Council during the preparation of the Comprehensive Plan and was mayor when most of the industrial development adjacent to 69th took place, has warned staff that allowing access onto 69th would break faith with the residents north of 69th. f) Industrial properties south of 69th have never been assessed for improvements to the roadway. If access were allowed, these properties would be required to pay assessments for past improvements as well as any improvements that might be required in the future. g) City Council Resolution Nos. 74 -169 and 77 -67 both stipulate that signery on the industrial buildings may not be visible from 69th Avenue North partly on the grounds that none of these buildings has access onto 69th Avenue North. 11 -13 -86 -4- Application No. 86040 continued Conclusion Based on the transportation, land use, and historical considerations outlined above, staff recommended that Part B of this application be denied. While this particular access might not be the total ruination of the neighborhood, its impact would certainly be negative. More importantly, the precedent of establishing an access for an industrial site onto 69th Avenue North would tend to unravel the buffer that exists now between the resiential and the industrial districts and which maintains a stable relationship between those land uses. In regard to concerns for 69th Avenue North itself, denial of the proposed access will reinforce the policy that is operative in the Short - Elliott - Hendrickson Traffic Study for 1985: namely, that site development approvals and special use permit approvals must be considered in light of the impact on the larger transportation network. Staff will attempt to draft a resolution of denial of Part B of this application by Thursday's meeting for the Commission's review. 11 -13 -86 -5- M E M O R A N D U M TO: Gerald Splinter, City Manager FROM: Kristin Lee, Public Health Sanitarian RE: Private Kennel License for Frank and Virginia Antila, 2406 Ericon Drive, Brooklyn Center, Minnesota DATE: November 21, 1986 An inspection was made November 19, 1986, of the Antila residence at 2406 Ericon Drive, Brooklyn Center, Minnesota. The Antilas are applying for a Private Kennel license for their six (6) cats. In addition to the cats, they have two (2) adult dogs. The cats are all mature domestic shorthairs. They range in age from 2 -11 years old, four of the cats are over nine (9) years old. All of the cats are spayed /neutered and declawed. One of the dogs is a nine (9) year old spayed, black lab, the other is a five (5) year old German Shepherd male who is not neutered. The dogs were well behaved and very friendly. They go to work with Mr. & Mrs. Antila and are not left home alone during the day. The cats have the run of the house. There are five (5) litter boxes at various locations within the home. The owners clean these boxes three (3) times weekly, which appears to be sufficient. If the cats are ever let outside, they are let into the backyard which is relatively small and is completely enclosed by six (6) foot chain link and wood fencing. Feces are removed from this enclosure weekly which appears to be sufficient. While in the house, I noticed a potent odor which I was unable to identify. The house was clean and orderly and there was no evidence that the animals were deficating anyplace they should not be. The odor may result just from the sheer numbers of animals in that house. All of the animals looked healthy and well cared for. No sanitation problems were found during my inspection. The Police files show no record of animal- related complaints at this address. I do not forsee any major problems if a Kennel license is approved at this address.
