On August 24, 2015, the City Council called for a Public Hearing to be held October 26, 2015;
notice was published in the official newspaper on October 8 and October 15, 2015.
Director of Business and Development Gary Eitel showed an aerial map of the area, provided
background and history, stated that the Planning Commission had recommended the resolution to
the City Council; provided an overview of the proposed development; and asked the City
Council to adopt the resolution.
Tom Denaway, Assistant Vice President of Springsted, provided a PowerPoint presentation that
included an overview of tax increment financing; types of TIF Districts; typical eligible costs;
public improvement costs allowed; public improvement costs not allowed; financing project
costs; how a TIF District is created; the process for approving a TIF District; the Senior
Affordable Housing Project; the project boundary; housing TIF District qualifications; TIF
District assumptions; budget authority - expense and revenues; and next steps.
Mayor Willson stated that he was struggling with the fact that the project did not qualify for
HUD funding and asked for further information.
Melodie Bridgeman, Consultant with HM Collaborative, the proposed developer, stated that the
project site was not in a HUD qualified census tract and there is a qualified census tract in the
City about three blocks away from the project. She stated that if the project site did qualify, they
may not have asked for TIF.
Councilmember Ryan stated that since the census tracts are subject to federal law, the City would
have to go back to Congress to get the qualifications changed.
Councilmember Ryan moved and Councilmember Graves seconded to open the Public Hearing.
Motion passed unanimously.
Donna Freeberg, 7301 Candlewood Drive, Brooklyn Park, Earle Brown Terrace employee, asked
for clarification on how affordable housing is determined; if an elderly or CADI waiver would be
accepted; if the units are going to be one bedroom; if the units will be assisted living;
clarification on the actual services; and what it will cost.
10/26/15 -5-
Ms. Bridgeman responded that the project is 100% affordable housing and there will be 140 units
for elderly waivers; the market contains 8,200 people over the age of 75; 2,300 households have
an individual 75 or older with assisted living needs; the 24 units that are for special needs are not
for memory care; there will be no independent living; 24 units are for higher assisted daily living
needs; it is anticipated that there will be some private pay; and it will meet the needs of low
income seniors that have assisted living needs.
Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson moved and Councilmember Myszkowski seconded to close
the Public Hearing.
Motion passed unanimously.
Councilmember Myszkowski moved and Councilmember Ryan seconded to adopt
RESOLUTION NO. 2015-163 Approving a Modification to the Redevelopment Plan for
Housing Development and Redevelopment Project No. 1 and Establishing a Tax Increment

10a2. 2407 ERICON DRIVE
Assistant City Manager/Director of Building and Community Standards Vickie Schleuning
advised that 2407 Ericon Drive was inspected and 10 property code violations were cited and
ultimately corrected. This property qualifies for a Type IV six-month provisional rental license
based on the number of property code violations found during the initial rental license
inspection. The property owner is also required to submit a mitigation plan and report monthly
on the progress of that plan. Ms. Schleuning reviewed actions taken in regard to this rental
license application and indicated Staff has reviewed that mitigation plan and held discussion with
the property owner and recommends approval based on meeting standards in the mitigation plan
and all applicable ordinances.
Councilmember Graves confirmed that the Type IV license was because of the 10 violations and
this was the property owner's first time applying for a license. Ms. Schleuning replied
affirmatively
Councilmember Graves asked if there are resources available to help the property owner. Ms.
Schleuning outlined resources available to property owners.
Councilmember Ryan moved and Councilmember Graves seconded to open the hearing.
Motion passed unanimously.
Plia Thao' s daughter, 21470 Pointe Drive, Rogers, MN, stated that they bought the property a
year ago and have been doing repairs. She stated that the 10 violations were minor and that they
had fixed the major issues and forgot about the minor issues. She reported on the significant
improvements that they had made to the property and stated that they do have good renters now.
She asked that the City Council to reconsider and allow for a longer renewal period.
Mayor Willson confirmed that they were asking for the rental designation to change from Type
IV to something that would allow for a longer period of time between renewals.
Ms. Thao replied that this was their first experience with renting and they are sorry.
10/26/15 -7-
Mayor Willson asked if they were aware that in six months they could come back to the City and
obtain a different rental classification.
Ms. Schleuning stated that the City has had renters change classifications and it will work with
the property owners on a mitigation plan.
Mayor Willson commented that the City has a good rental ordinance in place and enforcement
needs to be consistent. The property owner does have the opportunity to renew and obtain a
higher level of rental classification.
Councilmember Graves asked if Councilmembers can obtain information about the specific
violations. Ms. Schleuning replied affirmatively.
Councilmember Ryan moved and Councilmember Myszkowski seconded to close the hearing.
Motion passed unanimously.
Councilmëmber Myszkowski moved and Couneilmember Lawrence-Anderson seconded to
approve the issuance of a Type IV six-month provisional rental license and mitigation plan for
2407 Ericon Drive, with the requirement that the mitigation plan and all applicable ordinances
must be strictly adhered to before a renewal rental license would be considered.
Motion passed unanimously.
lOb. RESOLUTION NO. 2015-166 ESTABLISHING A MORATORIUM ON NEW
RENTAL DWELLINGS AND REGULATING THE RESIDENCY LOCATION OF
PREDATORY OFFENDERS WITHIN THE CITY AND AN INTERIM
ORDINANCE IMPOSING A MORATORIUM ON THE LICENSING AND
OPERATION OF NEW RENTAL DWELLING UNITS AND IMPOSING
TEMPORARY REGULATIONS ON THE RESIDENCY LOCATION OF
PREDATORY OFFENDERS WITHIN THE CITY
Mr. Boganey apologized for the short notice and stated that events occurred that made it
necessary to make quick action including a significant increase in the number of predatory
offender requests. He stated that previously there was one request per year, but over the last
year, there has been one every 36 days or so and the City is aware of five predatory offenders
currently residing in the City. He stated that recently there was a hearing in which the predatory
offender had been in the City for 10 months before the City was notified and within a matter of
two weeks, the City was made aware of two more predatory offenders coming in to the City. He
stated that within Hennepin County only the City of Minneapolis has more predatory offenders.
The City has been waiting to determine the outcome of a case that went before the Supreme
Court involving the City of Winona in which the City had established a limit on the number of
single-family homes that would receive a rental license. The Supreme Court chose not to
consider the appellate court's decision finding that the City of Winona' s ordinance was
acceptable. This means that the City of Brooklyn Center could consider numbers and
concentration of rental licenses in single-family neighborhoods. He recommended adopting a
10/26/15 -8-
resolution that establishes a moratorium and a transitory license that would take effect
immediately that would provide staff with more time to finalize a permanent ordinance. He
provided a synopsis of the resolution and the ordinance.
Mayor Willson brought up the churches in the area as places where children congregate. He
asked if they would qualify under the ordinance.
Mr. Boganey stated that there is a good chance that churches will be overlapped by the
boundaries.
Attorney Gilchrist stated that churches are not expressly mentioned but it is likely that they
would be covered by the ordinance.
Mayor Willson asked Mr. Boganey to put the color coded map on the overhead and to explain
what the colors mean.
Mr. Gilchrist provided his recommendation that Section 1.04 of the ordinance be revised to read:
"Repeat predatory offenders present a significant threat to the public safety of the community as
a whole, especially children, females, and vulnerable populations." This is the same language
that is in the resolution. He also recommended that the City Council make the duration of the
moratorium imposed by the ordinance 120 days instead of 180 days.
Mr. Boganey provided the map that showed the predatory offender count in neighboring cities.
He pointed out that the rest of Hennepin County has an actual POR count of 0 and there is a
significant concentration in Minneapolis and bordering suburbs. He also stated that over the last
10 years they have been having approximately one hearing a year, but in the last 12 months they
have had eight hearings.
Councilmember Graves stated her support for the resolution and temporary ordinance. She
asked about addressing the issue in terms of process accountability because of the offender that
the City was not made aware of. Mr. Boganey stated that the City has been in a dialogue with
the Department of Corrections and the Hennepin County Probation Department. They continue
to have conversations surrounding improving communications and regarding the dramatic
increase the City has experienced.
Councilmember Ryan confirmed with Attorney Gilchrist that the City had no previous legal
leverage to prevent the predatory offender from residing in the City. Mr. Gilchrist answered
affirmatively.
Councilmember Ryan stated he is in favor of the resolution and temporary ordinance and he feels
that the County and the MN Department of Corrections has not dealt with the City fairly. He
would like to see other communities bearing their share of the burden.
Mr. Boganey stated that one of the things that became apparent when looking at the state law
governing the locations of predatory offenders is that the statute specifically says that when
identifying locations certain factors should be taken into account such as concentration of
10/26/15 -9-
predatory offenders and distances from schools, parks, and places where children would
congregate. Staffs opinion was that their interpretation of what the statute requires and what has
been happening is at odds and they don't see that the statute has been given due consideration.
Mayor Willson commented that the northwest side of Minneapolis seems to be a repository for
Level III sex offenders. He stated that the City has areas of high poverty and high diversity and
now high levels of Level III sex offenders and that is a poor combination for a community to
continue to accept. He feels that the Cities of Brooklyn Center and Brooklyn Park seem to be
where the problem children go for the metro area and he fully supports the moratorium. He
believes that one of the offenders is not from the state and one is not even from this country. He
is struggling with the number of Level III sex offenders in the community.
Councilmember Lawrence-Anderson stated her wholehearted support and commented on the
quick reaction of staff and the police department in determining that there was a negative trend
and bringing the issue for action quickly.
Councilmember Ryan stated his support for the 2,000-foot buffer and stated that there would be a
small and limited area for the predatory offenders in the future. He also stated that the City
Council was unaware of a legal remedy before this date and because of the outcome of the City
of Winona case, the City now has a means of addressing the matter through the ordinance.
Councilmember Ryan moved and Councilmember Graves seconded to adopt RESOLUTION
NO. 2015-166 Establishing a Moratorium on New Rental Dwellings and Regulating the
Residency Location of Predatory Offenders within the City; and, to approve first reading of An
Interim Ordinance Imposing a Moratorium on the Licensing and Operation of New Rental
Dwelling Units and Imposing Temporary Regulations on the Residency Location of Predatory
Offenders within the City, as submitted to the City Council.
Councilmember Myszkowski stated her appreciation for the work of the staff and that it feels
good to take control of the situation. This affects public safety, property values and the City's
image, which we have worked hard to change.
Attorney Gilchrist stated that the resolution will be effective immediately upon adoption and the
ordinance will have to go through the ordinance process and will require a Public Hearing. This
Public Hearing will take place at the second City Council meeting in November. He asked if the
motion was to include the reworded sentence in Section 1.04 and to have 120 days replacing the
180 days in sections 3.04 and 4.04.
Councilmember Ryan offered a friendly amendment to the second half of the motion to read to
approve first reading of the interim ordinance with subsequent changes as described by the City
Attorney and to set second reading and Public Hearing for November 23, 2015. Councilmember
Graves agreed with the friendly amendment.
Motion passed unanimously.
10/26/15 -10-
Mr. Boganey thanked the City Council for their consideration and made special note that Chief
Gannon was very quick to bring this matter to his attention and to make sure the City did
everything it could.
