adoption:
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 89-4
RESOLUTION REGARDING RECOMMENDED DISPOSITION OF APPLICATION
NO. 89009 SUBMITTED BY MILTON CARLSON AND HARRIET BERG
WHEREAS, Application No. 89009 submitted by Milton Carlson and Harriet
Berg proposes rezoning from R2 (One or Two Family Residence District) to R4
(Multiple Family Residence District) of the two four-plexes at 610 and 620 53rd
Avenue North; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a duly called public hearing on
March 16, 1989 when testimony regarding the request was taken, and the Planning
Commission expanded the properties under consideration to include the other
nonconforming multiple-family dwellings in the Southeast Neighborhood; and
WHEREAS, the request was tabled and referred to the Southeast Neighborhood
Advisory Group for review and comment, which met on April 18, 1989 and considered the
expanded application; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission on May 11, 1989 again held a duly called
public hearing regarding the matter.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Brooklyn Center Planning Advisory
Commission to recommend to the City Council that Application No. 89009 submitted by
Milton Carlson and Harriet Berg be approved in consideration of the following:
1. The rezoning request is consistent and compatible with existing
adjacent land uses and with location along collector streets.
2. The existing multiple-family housing on the parcels in question meets
a need for multiple-family housing in the Southeast Neighborhood and
should be conferred status as conforming.
3. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the recommendation of the
City's Comprehensive Plan to permit apartment buildings of one and one-
half stories at intersections of collector or arterial streets in the
Southeast Neighborhood.
4. Conferring conforming status on the small apartment buildings in the
Southeast Neighborhood will not allow for additional dwelling units,
but will allow for the construction of garages (provided ordinance
requirements are met) which will enhance the properties in question
and, indirectly, the neighborhood.
5. The properties in question can support at least 3 dwelling units or
more which is the minimum number of units required to be classified as
a multiple-family dwelling. The properties can, therefore, bear
fully the development restrictions for the proposed zoning district.
6. In light of the above, it is believed that the proposed rezoning meets
the guidelines for evaluating rezonings set forth in Section 35-208 of
the Brooklyn Center Zoning Ordinance.
