including the guidelines for evaluating such amendments as contained in Section 35-355 of the
City's Zoning Ordinance and the City's Comprehensive Plan; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Advisory Commission of the City of Brooklyn Center
did determine that Planning Application No. 2013-005, submitted by Gatlin Development
Company, may be partially approved,based upon the following considerations:
A. The removal of this un-leasable "Food-Court" building will promote and
enhance the general public welfare of this PUD, as it maintains and keeps
the redevelopment activity of this site intact and ongoing;
B. The removal reflects a current need or benefit to the Site as requested by
the Developer,
C. The removal will not be a detriment or danger to the public.
D. The removal will not be injurious to the use and enjoyment of other uses
in this PUD;
E. The removal will not impede the normal orderly development and
proposed improvements of this PUD; and
F. Even with the removal and clearing of this building, the overall PUD site
will have adequate measures in place to maintain and provide suitable
access to the site.
G. Based upon the above considerations, it is believed that the guidelines for
evaluating Planned Unit Development Amendment as contained in Section
35-355 of the City's Zoning Ordinance are met and the proposal is,
therefore, in the best interest of the community.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Advisory Commission of
