Adjournment Planning Commission Information Sheet Application No. 81012 Applicant: Ryan Construction Company • Location: Northeast corner of Shingle Creek Parkway and Summit Drive Request: Site and Building Plan/Special Use Permit The applicant requests site and building plan and special use permit approval to construct the first two phases of a three-phase office park complex at the corner of Shingle Creek Parkway and Summit Drive. The property in question is zoned I-1 and is bounded by Interstate 94 on the north, by Shingle Creek Parkway on the west, by Summit Drive on the south, and by the Earle Brown Farm on the east. The appli- cant proposes ,to dedicate land for a continuation of Earle Brown Drive which would loop back to Summit Drive as shown on the preliminary plat (attached with Appli- cation No. 81013) . The proposed office use is a special use in the I-1 zone. Each of the two six story buildings proposed contains 116,640 sq. ft. of gross floor area. The parking requirement for each building comes to 470 stalls (for office buildings of this size, the formula is G.F.A./G.F.A. x .0005 + 190) . The proposed plan shows proof-of-parking for 940 cars, 881 spaces to be installed and 59 spaces designated for future parking located in an expanded 33 ft. wide green- strip along Earle Brown Drive. The plan shows greenstrips of 35 feet in width along Shingle Creek Parkway and 15 feet along Summit Drive and I-94. In Cl and CIA zones, greenstrips along major thoroughfares are to be 35 feet. Staff have recommended only a 15 foot greenstrip adjacent to the entrance ramp to I-94 because freeway abutment in the past has not been considered a basis for the wider greenstrip. Building setback requirements are met by the proposed plan. • Landscaping proposed for the site includes Hackberry and Ash trees planted at 40 feet intervals along Summit and along the greenstrip adjacent to the freeway. Plantings are varied in the greenstrips along the wider Shingle Creek -Parkway and Earle Brown Drive. These areas include Austrian Pines, Redtwig Dogwoods, Japanese tree Lilacs and Amur Maples in addition to American Linden and Pin Oak trees. The smaller parking lot islands wall each have two Flowering Crabs. The larger islands which will provide sidewalks for pedestrian traffic within the parking lots, are scheduled to have four Norway Maples and eight Dwarf Ninebark shrubs each. Plantings around each building include numerous Junipers and some Skyline Locusts and Flowering Crabs adjacent to the north, south. -and east entrance areas. There are three main parking areas on the site plan: to the north of the north building, between the buildings and south of the south building. Two catch basins are to be located in each of these major parking areas. These catch basins will be connected to City storm sewer which surround the property on the south, west, and east. B612 curb and gutter is indicated around all driving and parking areas. The exterior of the buildings will be precast concrete panels, painted off-white. (Rooftop mechanical equipment is contained in penthouse units matching the color of the building) . Lighting for the parking areas will be provided by 19 light- stands, 30/feet high and with 1000 watt metallic halide lamps. -d--� C ` 4'e.ZZ4 J The plans are generallyin order and approval is recommended subject to at least the following conditions: • 1 .

However, the final location of this curb opening shall be subject to future plan approvals for properties served by the opening and by the location of curb openings on the , south side of Summit Drive. i 2-12-81 -2- i • • • Planning Commission Information Sheet -Supplement Application No. 81012 Applicant: Ryan Construction Company Location: northeast corner of Shingle Creek Parkway and Summit Drive Request: Site and Building Plan/Special Use Permit As indicated in the original information sheet, the land in question is zoned I-1 and commercial uses such as the multi-story office buildings proposed are authorized in this zoning district by a special use permit. In addition to reviewing and determining that this proposal meets the Standards for Special Use Permits, a determination must also be made that the proposed commercial use is compatible and complimentary to existing adjacent land uses as well as those uses permitted in the I-1 District generally. Also, that the use is of comparable intensity, with respect to activity levels, to permitted I-1 uses and is planned and designed to assure that generated traffic will be within the capacity of available public facilities and not have an adverse impact upon the Industrial Park or the community. The applicant has submitted a traffic analysis done by Short-Elliott-Hendrickson (SEH) regarding the proposed development's .impact, on the existing roadway facilitie,j copy attached) . The analysis indicates that the proposed development is more and will result in heavier traffic volumes than what was originally anticipated under previous reports made by SEH in this area. However, the report notes that the total impact of the additional traffic volumes is not great and that facilities in that location are capable of carrying very high volumes of traffic in the future. The report does caution, however, that traffic problems would occur on Shingle Creek Parkway if all properties on the Earle Brown Farm area were intensely developed so as to generate maximum traffic volumes. A review of the site plan along with the traffic analysis seems to indicate that the qualifications for authorizing a special use permit,in this instance, are met. 2-12-81 a SHORT–ELLIOTT–HENDRICKSON, INC. E—r" E-7 CONSULTING ENGINEERS ST. PAUL, MINNESOTA • CHIPPEWA FALLS, WISCONSIN January 21 , 1981 RE: RYAN CONSTRUCTION COMPANY BROOKDALE CORPORATE CENTER OUR FILE NO. 81004 Mr. David Coleman Ryan Construction Company R 7401 Metro Boul evard Yap Consl, CO, Suite 500 Edina, Minnesota 55435 �A� 2 6 j9�1 k1s. Offio® Dear Mr. Coleman: We have reviewed the site plan dated November 11 , 1980 for the Brookdale Corporate Center located in the northeast corner of Shingle Creek Parkway and Summit Drive North in Brooklyn Center. We have computed the traffic anticipated to be generated by the three office buildings. We have then compared those calculations to previously made traffic generation calcula- tions for general office development in the same area. These general calculations were made as part of the Shingle Creek Parkway Area Traffic Study and the Traffic Study for the Earle Brown Farm. The Brookdale Corporate Center is a more intense development than was originally anticipated under either of the previous reports. The total gross square footage of office space is 328,666 square feet. Under an alternate proposal , this is reduced to 284,418 square feet. Under original calculations only 185,000 square feet was anticipated. The difference is primarily caused by a very high per- tentage of land utilization for parking or building area and a parking ratio of 4.2 or 4.3 spaces per 1 ,000 square feet of gross floor area. It is anticipated that the Brookdale Corporate Center will generate approxi- mately 4,000 vehicle trips per day. Under the alternate proposal , only 3,400 trips per day will be generated. In the original traffic estimate 2,600 trips per day would have been generated by the same acreage. Major impact on area roads will take place in the a.m. and p.m. peak hours. Under the original traffic estimation scheme for the area, 285 vehicles would have exited from the site during the p.m. peak hour. Under the proposal , 350 or 425 vehicles will exit. This volume will be disbursed eastbound on Summit Drive, westbound on Summit Drive and ultimately north on Shingle Creek Parkway or westbound on Summit Drive and southbound on Shingle Creek Parkway. With this disbursion, the total impact of the more intense development will be lessened. As an example, there will be approximately 65 more right turns from westbound Summit Avenue to northbound Shingle Creek Parkway than were anticipated under the Shingle Creek Parkway Area Traffic Study. A table 200 GOPHER BUILDING • 222 EAST LITTLE CANADA ROAD • ST. PAUL, MINNESOTA 55117 + PHONE (612) 484-0272 r� • Mr. David Coleman January 21 , 1981 Page 2 and three drawings showing intersections along Summit Creek Parkway are included as a part of this report. They indicate that the more intense development of the Brookdale Corporate Center will generate some additional trips onto area roads. The total impact of the additional volumes is not great. Shingle Creek Parkway at its intersections with Summit Drive and Interstate Highway 694 ramps will carry a very high volume of traffic in the future. The intersections will be capable of accepting the heavier traffic volumes without any significant delays or congestion. The only concern for traffic along Shingle Creek Parkway would occur if all properties in the Earle Brown Farm area were intensely developed so as to generate a maximum traffic volume. It would be extremely difficult to cite any one individual development as causing a breakdown in traffic because it was intensely developed. It is obvious, however, that intense development of the entire vacant area could lead to traffic delays and congestion due to a • lack of capacity at major intersections along Shingle Creek Parkway and along County Road 10. In summary, the Brookdale Corporate Center will generate a substantial volume of traffic but is not inconsistent with proposed land use or adjacent land use. The road system is set up to accept a high volume of traffic from the area. Comparisons are made to previously calculated volumes so that the impact and the disbursion of traffic over the entire Shingle Creek Parkway area can be visualized. We appreciated the opportunity to provide a review of the traffic generation from the Brookdale Corporate Center. We hope that our information, calculations and drawings are sufficient for use by yourself and the city in considering development as proposed. Should you have any questions or need any additional ` information, we would be very pleased to respond.

Standards for Special Use Permits A special use permit may be granted by the City Council after demonstration by evidence that all of the following are met: (a) The establishment, maintenance or operation of the special use will promote and enhance the general welfare and will not_be detrimental to or endanger the public health, safety, morals, or comfort. • (b) The special use will not be injurious to the use and enjoyment of other property in the immediate vicinity for the purposes already permitted, nor substantially diminish and impair property values within the neighborhood. (c) The establishment of the special use will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of surrounding property. for uses permitted in the district. (d) Adequate measures have been or will be taken to provide ingress, egress and parking so designed as to minimize traffic congestion in the public streets. (e) The special use shall, in all other respects, conform to the applicable regulations of the district in which it is located. 3. Conditions and Restrictions ' The Planning Commission may recommend and the City Council may impose such .conditions and restrictions upon the establishment, location, construction, maintenance and operation of the special use as deemed necessary for the protection of the public interest and to secure compliance with requirements specified in this ord- inance. In all cases in which special use permits are granted, the City Council may require such evidence and guarantees as it may deem necessary as part of the conditions stipulated in connec- tion therewith. - 4. Resubmission No application for a special use permit which has been denied by the City Council shall be resubmitted for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of the final determination by the City Council; except that the applicant may set forth in writing newly discovered evidence of change of condition upon which he relies to gain the consent of the City Council for resubmission at -an earlier time. 5. Revocation and Extension of Special Use Permits When a special use permit has been issued pursuant to the pro- visions of this ordinance, such permit shall expire without further action by the Planning Commission or the City Council unless the applicant or his assignee or successor commences work upon -the sub- ject property within one year of the date the special use permit is granted, or unless before the expiration of the one year period the applicant shall apply for an extension thereof by filling out and submitting to the Secretary of the Planning Commission a "Special Use Permit" application requesting such extension and paying an additional fee of $15.00. Special use permits granted pursuant to the provisions of a prior ordinance of Brooklyn Center shall expire within one year of the effective date of this ordinance if construction upon the sub- ject property pursuant to such special use permit has not commenced within that time. In any instance where an existing and established special use is abandoned for a period of one year, the special use permit re- . fated thereto shall expire one year following the date of abandon- ment.

Planning Commission Information Sheet Application No. 81013 Applicant: Ryan Construction Company Location: North of Summit Drive, east of Shingle Creek Parkway Request: Preliminary Plat Approval The applicant requests preliminary plat approval to subdivide the property north of Summit Drive, east of Shingle Creek Parkway, south of I-94 and west of Earle Brown Drive. The property is currently described as Tracts B and C of R.L.S. 1380 and Outlot D of Brooklyn Center Industrial Park Plat 1 . The preliminary plat submitted does not include Tract B, but a supplementary Land Transfer Map has been submitted indicating other land contained on the Earle Brown Farm. The reason for including that property in the proposed plat is that Ryan Con- struction wishes to trade a strip of land north of the farm buildings and adjacent to the proposed extension of Earle Brown Drive for a comparable strip of land on the west edge of Tract B (areas 1 and 2 on Land Transfer Map attached) . The parcels thus far contained in the proposed plat are of the following sizes: Lot 1 , Block 1 5.53 acres Lot 2, Block 1 5.23 acres Lot 1 , Block 2 6.03 acres Road 2.18 acres Total 8.97 acres The roadway will be 60 feet in width and will loop back to Summit Drive as an extension of E-arle Brown Drive. Part of the existing Earle Brown Drive cul -de- sac will be vacated leaving only an 80' right-of-way for a through street. Tract B must be included at least with the final plat if the land trade described above is to be accomplished. The staff have recommended that the other parcels on which lies the Summit Bank be included in the plat as well . The Summit Bank presently occupies portions of three separate properties. Section 35-540 of the Zoning Ordinance requires that a single use occupy a single parcel . Therefore, the replatting of Tract B may be an appropriate time to rectify this matter. Representatives of Brooklyn Center Industrial Park will be present Thursday evening to discuss their plans for restoration and develop- ment of the "Farm" area. It is their intention to resubdivide this property within the next few months. We will be prepared to discuss the plat in more detail at Thursday evening's meeting. A public .hearing has been scheduled and notices have been sent. Approval of the application should be 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 requirements of Chapter 15 of • the City Ordinances. 3. A subdivision agreement shall be executed prior to final plat approval relating to assessments and public improvements. 4. The plat shall be modified prior to final plat approval to include all of the land in Tract B, R.L.

BY SUBURBAN ENGINEFR1NG Planning Commission Information Sheet Application No. 81014 Applicant: Glover and Associates • Location: 4315 - 70th Avenue North Requests Amend Site and Building Plan Approval The applicant requests approval of a modified site and building plan for the property at 4315 - 70th Avenue North (formerly Continental Sign Company) . The proposed use of the building is an office and service center for Sun Maintenance, a commercial and industrial building maintenance contractor. The property is zoned C2 and is bounded by 70th Avenue North on the north, the Duoos Brothers American Legion Post on the east, and by a number of smaller commercial uses on the southwest, including Rog & Jim's Superette and Brooklyn Printing. The proposed use is considered by staff to be permitted in the C2 zone, whereas Continental Sign was a nonconforming manufacturing use. There are a number of structural nonconformities with the site, however, some of which are addressed by the proposed plan. The building in question is approximately 5,250 sq. ft. in a-rea..and is set back approximately 12' from 70th..Ave. North. There are 20 parking sp.-aces on the si.te. The proof-of-parking for retail uses would be 45 spaces. _ The proposed.use will be approximately 2,900 sq. ft. office and 2,350 sq. ft. storage resulting in a parking requirement of 18 spaces. The site should not be overburdened, therefore, by the incoming use. The applicant proposes to install an automatic fire extinguishing system in the building and to place vertical board textured plywood siding to the exterior. • In addition, the building will be brought up to current energy and handicapped codes. The proposed plan calls for establishing a 15' wide greenstrip and two 30' wide openings (one shared with the American Legion) along 70th avenue North. Under- ground irrigation is to be provided. - landscape plan should be forthcoming by Thursday night's meeting. There are presently three chain link fences running up to the southwest side of the building dividing properties which front on Brooklyn Boulevard. Since the building is actually set back roughly 10' from the southwest property line, these fences encroach on the applicant's property. `Staff recommend that, for access of emergency vehicles, these fences be removed to the southwest property ; line. ti .� ' The property presently consists of two platted lots (Lots 16 and 17, Block 2, Lane's Brooklyn Center Addition) with the building straddling the property line between the two. The applicant asks to be excused from the requirement to re- plat the property on the grounds that the existing property description already consists of two platted lots and on the grounds that redevelopment of the property to the south and west within a few years may free up land to be in- cluded in the applicant's site. Staff would acknowledge the merit of postponing or deferring the replatting requirement at this time on that basis. lie will be prepared to discuss this application further at Thursday's meeting. Subject to a few possible revisions, the plans are in order and approval is recommended subject to the following conditions: 2-12-81 -1- Application No. 81014 continued 1 .

Honda sales office at 6801 Brooklyn Boulevard (Brookdale Pontiac) . The new sales office will replace a 700 sq. ft. existing used car sales office at approximately the same location (north of the main building) on the site. Site plan changes proposed in this application are few. Honeylocusts and Red Maples spaced 50 feet apart are proposed along the Brooklyn Boulevard and 68th Avenue North greenstrip. Some low-lying shrubbery is also indicated around the main entrance off Brooklyn Boulevard and at the corner of 68th and Brooklyn Boulevard. An underground irrigation system is indicated on the plan. Staff have recommended that the curb opening on the A and W Root Beer site to the north be restricted by carrying a 5' wide greenstrip along the north property line for a distance of approximately 100' west of the opening. This would allow for better control of vehicle movements before entering Brooklyn Boulevard. However, the remaining parking and driving area would be only 34 feet rather than the 38.5 feet required by ordinance for 600 angle parking stalls. Either the stalls can be tilted to 450 or the building can be moved southward by 5 feet and there would be no failure to meet driving lane requirements on the other side of the building. The building is to be roughly a hexagon-shaped showroom with a rectangular office • section attached on the southwest side. The exterior treatment will be consist- ent around the building and with the existing sales office in the main building. An automatic fire extinguishing system is required by ordinance for this structure. A 5' sidewalk and BP12 curb and gutter are indicated around the proposed building. The plans submitted are generally in order and approval is recommended subject to at least the following conditions: 1 . Building plans are subject to review and approval by the Building Official prior to the issuance of permits. 2. The new sales office shall be equipped with an automatic fire extinguishing system in accordance with NFPA Standards and shall be connected to a central monitoring device in accordance with Chapter 5 of the City Ordinances. 3. The special use permit as amended is issued to the applicant as operator of the facility and is nontransferable. 4. The permit is subject to all applicable codes, ordinances, regulations and violation thereof shall be grounds for revocation. 5. Plan approval is exclusive of all signery which is subject to the provisions of the Sign Ordinance. 6.
