Planning Commission Information Sheet
Application No. 90024
Applicant: Brooklyn Office Park Partnership
Location: 3300 County Road 10
Request: Preliminary Plat
The applicant requests preliminary plat approval to redivide the
two lots containing the Brooklyn Crossing office building and the
five smaller office buildings (two of which are fully built) to the
east, at the northeast corner of Brooklyn Boulevard and County Road
10. The property in question is zoned C1A and is bounded on the
north by single-family homes, on the east by the Honeywell Credit
Union (old F & M bank) and Northway Drive, on the south by County
Road 10, and on the west by Brooklyn Boulevard. The purpose of the
new subdivision is to transfer some parking stalls from the multi-
building site (new Lot 2) to the main building site (new Lot 1) in
order to allow some medical tenants in the main building. The
applicant has also submitted a revised site plan for the multi-
building parcel which reduces the size of one of the future office
buildings (Bldg. A) from 8,400 sq. ft. to 6, 000 sq. ft. and adds 9
new parking stalls. The purpose of this revision is also to allow
for some medical tenancies on the multi-building site. Medical
uses require more parking per given area than general office uses.
The total area of the two lot plat to be known as Brooklyn Crossing
• 3rd Addition, is 325, 343 sq. ft. or 7.469 acres. The area of Lot
1 (the main building site) is 143,593 sq. ft. or 3.296 acres. The
area of Lot 2 (the multi-building site) is 181,750 sq. ft. or 4.173
acres.
The revised site plan shows 264 parking stalls on the main building
site (including 2 within a parking lot island) . The size of the
main building is 55,193 sq. ft. (Gross Floor Area) . This number of
parking spaces will allow for up to approximately 3,955 sq. ft. of
medical space (@ one space for 150 sq. ft. = 26.37 spaces) and
51,237 sq. ft. of general office (@ one space per 215.6 sq. ft. _
237.63 spaces) (there is a sliding scale formula for general office
parking) . The multi-building parcel is to have 33,600 sq. ft. of
office space and 179 parking stalls. On this site, the parking
requirement for general office space is simply one space per 200
sq. ft. of gross floor area. The maximum medical occupancy on the
multi-building parcel is 6,600 sq. ft. (6, 600 = 150 = 44 spaces) .
The corresponding general office usage would be 27, 000 sq. ft.
(27,000 : 200 = 135 spaces) .
Staff have issued two permits for medical tenants in this complex,
one of 1,266 sq. ft. on the multi-building site and one for 3,514
sq. ft. on the main building site. This lives within the limits
for each building outlined above. The property has filed a
covenant against both parcels limiting medical use to 4,800 sq. ft.
on the entire complex, prohibiting development of the three

remaining office buildings, and stipulating that the covenant will
only be released by City approval when all parking requirements
have been met for each site so that the previously mentioned
permits could be issued. This preliminary plat is in furtherance
of that objective. When the plat is filed and the foundation for
Building A on the multi-building site has been cut back to 6, 000
sq. ft. , the covenant will be released. We have encouraged the
property owner to provide more parking than the general office
formula requires in order to accommodate some medical tenants.
This is an on-going issue with most multi-tenant office buildings
in the City. In this case, there is still some flexibility since
not all the buildings have been built and the entire complex is
still owned in common. What we wish to avoid is parking
deficiencies in the future when one or the other site may be sold
to another party.
In general, the preliminary plat and revised site plan appear to be
in order and approval is recommended, subject to at least the
following conditions:
1. The final plat is subject to review and approval by the
City Engineer.
2 . The final plat is subject to the provisions of Chapter 15
of the City ordinances.
3. Medical occupancy shall be limited to no more than 3,955
sq. ft. on Lot 1 and no more than 6, 600 sq. ft. on Lot 2 .
4. The restrictive covenant placed on the properties
restricting future development and medical occupancy
shall not be released until the plat is filed at the
County and the foundation for Building A is reduced in
size to 6,.000 sq. ft. consistent with the amended site
plan.
