PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 98 -05
RESOLUTION REGARDING RECOMMENDED DISPOSITION OF
PLANNING COMMISSION APPLICATION NO. 98021 SUBMITTED BY
WILLIAM R. STONER
WHEREAS, Planning Commission Application No. 98021 submitted by William
R. Stoner proposes rezoning from C -2 (Commerce) to C -1 (Service /Office) of the land located at
5001 Drew Avenue North; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a duly called public hearing on
November 12, 1998 when a staff report and testimony regarding the rezoning request were taken;
and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission requested review and comment from the
Southwest Neighborhood Advisory Group; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission considered the rezoning request in light of
all testimony received, the guidelines for evaluating rezonings contained in Section 35 -208 of the
City's Zoning Ordinance, and in light of the recommendations of the City's Comprehensive Plan.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Brooklyn Center Planning
Advisory Commission to recommend to the City Council that Application No. 98021 submitted
by William R. Stoner be approved in consideration of the following;
1. The proposed rezoning to the C -1 zoning designation is considered to be a public
benefit by limiting the uses of the property to a less intense commercial use which
is considered to be more compatible with surrounding property, particularly the
R -1 zoned property to the north.
2. All permitted uses in the proposed C -1 zoning district can be contemplated for
development or redevelopment on the subject property.
3. The subject property will bear fully the ordinance development restrictions for the
C -1 zoning district.
4. The property in question is considered to be more suitable for a C -1 rather than a
C -2 zoning designation given the surrounding land uses. The C -1 rezoning will
rule out more intense and perhaps less desirable commercial uses which are
otherwise allowed int he C -2 district.
i
5. Limiting the commercial utilization of this property to a less intense, less intrusive
service /office zoning designation is considered to be in the best interests of the
community.
6. In light of the above, it is believed that the proposed rezoning is consistent with the
guidelines for evaluating rezonings contained in Section 35 -208 of the Zoning
Ordinance and is, therefore, in the best interests of the community.
