M. Roll Call: Mayor Gordon Erickson, Henry Dorff, Phil Cohen, Howard Heck and John Leary were present. Rev. Christensen of the Brooklyn Center Free Church gave the Invocation for the meeting. Motion by rohn Leary and seconded by Howard Heck to approve the minutes of the Council meeting of November 12, 1963 as recorded. Motion carried unanimously. Member Phil Cohen introduced the following Ordinance and Resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION WHEREAS, the Village of Brooklyn Center Zoning Ordinances were enacted in 1957; and WHEREAS, since that time the following changes have ocemod within the Village of Brooklyn Center. 1. The population has been steadily growing; the report from the Village Planning Consultant entitled "Population," dated October, 1963, shows that the population of Brooklyn Center has been steadily growing since 1950 from 4,284 to 27, 900 at present; 2. Land for large subdivision development is nearly exhausted and the character of Brooklyn Center has become primarily single- family detached dwelling residences; 3. Since 1957, a sudden and sharp increase in the use of land for multiple dwellings has occured as appears by the above - mentioned report of the Village Planning Consultant; 4. Since 1957, definite plans have emerged and land has been acquired for the construction of a major interstate throughway across the Village; S. Since 1957, a major regional shopping center has been constructed In the Village at Highway 100 and Osseo Road; and WHEREAS, the Council believes that these factors compel a re- consideration of the Zoning Ordinances in general and in particular with respect to multiple dwelling use since. _ 1. Construction of multiple dwellings has taken a sharp rise as appears by the report of the Planning Consultant;, 2. Multiple dwellings impose a much more intensive use upon land and municipal services which is seen in the increased automobile and pedestrian traffic generated from multiple dwellings and can have an effect on the value of adjacent property: _i- r 23 3. Multiple dwellings are built upon a much larger scale than single- family dwellings and tend to make a neighborhood less pleasing for residential single- family dwelling purposes,* 4. The present Ordinances are not designed to cope with the problems created by multiple dwelling use; and WHEREAS, the Council nevertheless recognizes that multiple dwelling uses are an essential and desirable land use within the Village and desires: 1. To create standards such as set -back and unit limitation standards which will minimize the conflict between single - family dwelling use and multiple dwelling use; 2. To review the Zoning Ordinances and basic land use plan so as to provide for multiple dwelling land use where most likely to promote the interests of traffic safety good municipal service, and desirable neighborhood setting; and WHEREAS, the Village has entered upon a comprehensive land use study and review of Zoning Ordinances in cooperation with the Federal and State Governments and through a federal grant from the Urban Renewal Administration of the Housing and Home Finance Agency under the Urban Planning Assistance Program authorized by Section 701 of the Housing Act of 1954, as amended, which is to cost $23.600; and WHEREAS, the Consultant hired to conduct this study has advised that the construction of numerous multiple dwellings will nullify the benefit of his study and recommendations with respect to standards applicable to multiple dwelling uses; and WHEREAS, the Council believes thatthe residents of the Village are entitled to achieve the greatest practicable benefit from the 701 study and that a short delay in the plans of persons who could otherwise obtain special use permits within the next 18 months, although a burden to them, is desirable in order to ensure to the present and future citizens of Brooklyn Center: 1. Efficient and safe disposition of automobile traffic generated from multiple dwellings; 2. Efficient and economical provision of municipal services; 3. The minimum practicable conflict between single - family and multiple dwelling uses; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, to pass the following Ordinance: ORDINANCE NO. 63 -2 AN ORDINANCE RELATING TO A MORATORIUM UPON THE ISSUANCE OF SPECIAL USE PERMITS FOR MULTIPLE DINELLINC 'C,TSES IN RESIDENTIAL fR -1) DISTRICTS Section 1.
