PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 95-1
RESOLUTION REGARDING RECOMMENDED DISPOSITION OF
PLANNING COMMISSION APPLICATION NO. 95009 SUBMITTED BY
THE CITY OF BROOKLYN CENTER
WHEREAS, Planning Commission Application No. 95009
submitted by the City of Brooklyn Center proposes rezoning from
I-1 (Industrial Park) and C-2 (Commerce) to PUD/I-1 and approval
for a Planned Unit Development to accommodate appropriate common
parking areas for the properties located northwesterly of the
intersection of Shingle Creek Parkway and Freeway Boulevard; and
WHEREAS, this proposal includes the rezoning of the
properties addressed as 6601 and 6707 Shingle Creek Parkway
(Tract G, RLS 1572 and Tract A, RLS 1564 respectively) ; 6601 and
6701 Parkway Circle (Tract A, RLS 1572 and Tract B, RLS 1564
respectively) ; 2000, 2100 and 2200 Freeway Boulevard (Tract B,
RLS 1619, Tract A, RLS 1619 and Tract B, RLS 1572 respectively) ;
and the north and south portions of the central parking lot
(Tract C, RLS 1564 and Tract C, RLS 1572 respectively) and the
development of a new agreement for the purpose of creating
certain parking, driveway and access rights upon the above stated
properties; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a duly called
public hearing on June 29, 1995, when a staff report and public
testimony regarding the Rezoning and Planned Unit Development
were received; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission considered the
Rezoning and Planned Unit Development request in light of all
testimony received, the guidelines for evaluating rezonings
contained in Section 35-208 of the City's Zoning Ordinance, the
provisions of the Planned Unit Development ordinance contained in
Section 35-355, and in light 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. 95009 submitted by the City of Brooklyn
Center be approved in light of the following considerations:
1. The Rezoning and Planned Unit Development
proposals are compatible with the standards,
purposes and intent of the Planned Unit
Development section of the City's Zoning
ordinance.
Planning Commission Resolution No.
i
2 . The Rezoning and Planned Unit Development proposal
will allow for the utilization of land in question
in a manner which is considered 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
this Rezoning and Planned Unit Development
proposal will conform, for the most part, with
City Ordinance standards. Variation from the
parking requirement for the Holiday Inn allowing
it to relinquish its rights to 65 parking spaces
allocated to it in the central parking lot is
justified based on a double counting of the
parking requirement and the experience of
approximately ten years which indicates no need
for the additional 65 parking spaces. A lesser
parking standard can be permitted also on the
grounds of the complementarity of peak parking
demands by the uses within the PUD.
4 . The Rezoning and Planned Unit Development proposal
are considered compatible with the recommendations
in the City's Comprehensive Plan for this area of
the City.
5. The Rezoning and Planned Unit Development appear
to be a good utilization of the central parking
facility and access road and can be considered to
be in the best interest of the community.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED by the Brooklyn Center Planning
Advisory Commission to recommend to the City Council that the
approval of Application No. 95009 be subject to the following
conditions and considerations:
1. The Sixth Amendment to Easement Agreement and
Modification of Declaration for Parking shall be
executed by all parties and be filed with the
titles to the property with the Register of Titles
at Hennepin County.
2 . Approval of this Planned Unit Development
acknowledges the following uses within the
district:
a. a 20 percent office/80 percent industrial
occupancy of the Shingle Creek 11 building
located at 6707 Shingle Creek Parkway;
b. a 100 percent office occupancy of the RCM
Plaza building located at 6707 Parkway Circle;
c. the development of an 80, 000 sq. ft. office
industrial building for General Litho approved
under Planning Commission Application No.
95004 at 6601 Parkway Circle;
d. a 60 percent office/10 percent clinic/30
percent industrial occupancy of the building
known at Parkway Place, 6601 Shingle Creek
Parkway;
e. a hotel, restaurant, nightclub, meeting room
and ballroom use of the Holiday Inn, 2200
Freeway Boulevard;
f. a 100 percent office occupancy use for the
