PC Minutes
02-25-16 -2- DRAFT
Mr. Benetti provided Commissioners with a taped mock-up of a 6’ x 16’ and 8’ x 12’ (for a
recommended total of 100 square feet) deck. He stated that staff felt that the six-foot deck was
the most appropriate measurement for a deck because there is no requirement to make the deck
architecturally compatible as there is with porches.
Commissioner Sweeney commented that the six-foot deck is more in keeping with the style of
ramblers in the City. She also stated that she didn’t feel that a deck in the front yard would be
used for guests.
Commissioners agreed on the six-foot deck.
Mr. Benetti provided Commissioners with a taped mock-up of an 8’x 20’ and a 10’ x 20’ (for a
recommended total of 200 square feet) porch.
Discussion took place regarding the sizable investment in a porch; the size of the porch being
considered an addition to the home; setbacks; the architectural flexibility given to porches as
compared to the concrete standards of the deck; and the number of concrete stoops in the City
that will need replacing.
Commissioner Morgan stated that the Planning Commission is at the forefront and giving
direction and guidelines to the second generation of decks and porches in the City.
ACTION TO APPROVE NEW ORDINANCE LANGUAGE
There was a motion by Commissioner MacMillan, seconded by Commissioner Sweeney, to
allow a 6-foot deck and a 10-foot porch and to accept all other ordinance language presented to

Voting in favor: Chair Christensen, Commissioners MacMillan, Morgan, Schonning,
Sweeney, and Tade.
And the following voted against the same: None
The motion passed unanimously.
Chair Christensen stated that the mock-ups were useful and thanked Planning Staff for providing
them.
7. DISCUSSION ITEMS
Mr. Benetti talked about the Northport Elementary Site Plan that was presented to the City
Council on February 22, 2016. He stated City code does not require site plan review to undergo
a public hearing process; however informational meeting notices are routinely sent to neighbors
within 150 feet or 350 feet of the subject site, and residents are given notice that they can attend
or speak at this meeting, whether there is a scheduled public hearing or not. Mr. Benetti further
stated this is different than those applications that require a published and mailed hearing notice,
PC Minutes
02-25-16 -3- DRAFT
such as special use permit, subdivision plat, rezoning or variance, whereby City Code does
require this formal notification process. He stated that the Mayor was concerned that no public
hearing was held at the Planning Commission level regarding the site plan, and called for the
opening of public hearing at the February 22nd City Council meeting. No one spoke and the item
passed unanimously. He stated that the city staff is looking into the possibility of having a public
hearing process on every application item that goes before the Planning Commission.
Mr. Eitel read a follow-up explanation regarding the issue that will be placed in the City
Council’s weekly update that outlines the current procedure and states that the Planning
Commission encourages public participation and considers every meeting as an open meeting.
Mr. Benetti stated that he would provide Commissioners with more information as it becomes
available.
Commissioner Morgan commented that it would be interesting for the Planning Commission to
explore utilizing virtual technology.
Mr. Eitel stated that virtual technology would be useful for the Housing Commission as they
look at how to move 1950-60’s homes in the City into more current designs.
Commissioner Morgan stated his belief that the Planning Commission’s work is being noticed
and that it has done a good job of tackling challenging issues. He challenged Commissioners to
keep up the good work and stated that good things are happening in Brooklyn Center.

SUBJECT: Resolution of Approval for Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District No. 7
(Opportunity Site + Surrounding Area)
Introduction & Background:
On March 9, 2015, the Economic Development Authority (City Council) considered a report
from LHB, Inc. an architectural consultant, which included a professional evaluations of 6
buildings within the former Brookdale Square Commercial Center, along with the commercial
building at 5939 John Martin Drive (former Ultimate Electronics/Golden Value Market). The
study was conducted in order to ascertain and formulate necessary findings relative to the
creation of a Redevelopment Tax Increment Financing District within the Opportunity Site.
After considering this report and memorandum from the city’s financial consultants Springsted
Financial, the EDA adopted Resolution No. 2015-05, which designated the following:
1. The 7 building owned by the EDA are structurally substandard to a degree requiring
substantial renovation or clearance;
2. EDA is allowed to proceed with the demolition of these 7 buildings;
3. EDA intends to include these designated properties in one or more redevelopment or
renewal and renovation tax increment financing district within 3 years after the date of
building demolition on the designated property;
4. establishes the process for determining base value of the tax increment district; and
5. authorized staff and consultants to take any necessary actions to carry out the intent of
this resolution.
LBH’s initial review of structurally substandard buildings also included the vacant Kohl’s
building; but the inspections in March, 2015 found that the building conditions at that time did
not meet the statutory standards necessary to determine that this building could be considered as
part of the future TIF Redevelopment District. However, during the summer of 2015, the Kohl’s
building experienced significant defects in the exterior siding, which caused staff to request LBH
to conduct a further investigation of the interior and exterior of the Kohl’s building.
The investigation of the damaged/exposed exterior wall, further investigation of the interior, and
discovery of moisture issues resulted in LBH findings that the Kohl’s building met the

structurally substandard conditions and was eligible to be included in the future creation of a
redevelopment tax increment district.
The opportunity of including the Kohl’s site as a parcel within the proposed Tax Increment
District should provide a key marketing tool for Mid-America (property managers for the
Shingle Creek Crossing development) and an incentive for a significant renovation of the
existing building or a complete redevelopment of the lot.
Establishing a Redevelopment Tax Increment District.
On January 25, 2016, the City Council adopted a resolution calling for a public hearing on March
28, 2016, to formally consider and establish this proposed Tax Increment Financing District.
As a requirement to establishing a new tax increment financing district in the city, the Planning
Commission is tasked with determining if the general (conceptual) development plan associated
with the new TIF district is compliant or consistent with the general goals and objectives of the
current comprehensive plan of the city.
The City’s 2030 Comprehensive Plan’s Land Use Map (attached hereto) and project area
identified in the illustration above, indicates this redevelopment sites are planned under a mix-
use of Townhomes/Multi-Family/Office-Service/Retail Business/Public.

At the last meeting of February 25th, staff presented the Commission with an approved concept
plan from Sand Company to co-develop a large segment of this Opportunity Site with
approximately 750+ market rate apartment units. The plan also included a future performing
arts/multi-cultural center. The Kohl’s site will likely remain a target for commercial/retail
development, either in the same building, or it may be removed and redeveloped similar in
fashion to Gatlin Development did with the former Brookdale Food Court building. The
remaining (northerly) areas of the Opportunity Site may be targeted for detached, senior or
market rate townhome housing opportunities; or a mixture of low-density housing with small
retail/service-office uses.
The establishment of this TIF district will provide an effective tool for the city to assist in
financing and/or installing critical infrastructure improvements in this area; or provide a source
to fund gaps for those developers wishing to improve and redevelop this important site.
Attached to the end of this memo are selected sections (excerpts) and statements from Ch. 2 -
Land Use & Redevelopment Plan and Ch. 4 - Housing Plan elements of the city’s 2030
Comprehensive Plan. These sections contain relevant statements, goals and objectives, which
may be considered in the Commission’s determination of this item and support the establishment
of this new TIF District.
Recommendation:
If the Planning Commission finds the proposed TIF District No. 7 is consistent with the general
goals and objectives of the city’s comprehensive plan, the Planning Commission may consider
the attached resolution, which offers a favorable recommendation to the City Council that the
Plans are consistent with the comprehensive plan for the City of Brooklyn Center, Minnesota.

2030 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
CH. 2 - LAND USE, REDEVELOPMENT AND COMMUNITY IMAGE PLAN
BROOKDALE AND THE OPPORTUNITY SITE (excerpt)
Consideration should be given to a vision of Brookdale Mall as an opportunity site itself for a mixed-use
development or destination institution that will give the city center landmark status.
In 2006, the City Council adopted the Opportunity Site Master Plan & Development Guidelines. The
Plan and Guidelines were intended to reinforce and guide public and private investment in a manner
that will enhance and strengthen the viability of the area and recommend Brooklyn Center as a
regional point of destination.
This plan focused on a 100-acre “Opportunity Site” bounded by Summit Drive on the north and east,
Highway 100 on the southeast, County Road 10 on the south and Shingle Creek Parkway on the west.
After review and analysis, the positive features of six concept sketch plans were synthesized into the
Opportunity Site Master Plan Concept. It provided for five land-use districts, including a mixed- use
center, two residential neighborhoods, an office district and community open space with trails and
ponds. These land-use districts are described in more detail in the Plan and Guidelines.
Following are the findings of the review of the Plan and Guidelines:
• The Plan and Guidelines are design-oriented and have a weak foundation in the
realities of the marketplace and redevelopment financing.
• The Master Plan limits the potential contribution that the Opportunity Site’s
redevelopment could make to the restoration of viability of the area as a retail center.
• Adjustments to the master plan to make the Mixed-Use Center District conducive to
anchor retail should be considered.
• Adjustments to the Master Plan to increase the width of the Highway 100 District
while at the same time decreasing the Community Open Space area should be
considered.
• In conjunction with authorized modifications to the Master Plan, the Opportunity Plan
should be exposed to the development community for solicitation of development
interest.
• Sources to fund the gap to stimulate the redevelopment of the Opportunity Site, in
addition to tax increment financing through special legislative authorization, should be
identified and pursued.
• Sources of funding to make structured parking more economically feasible should be
identified.
• Restrictions on the use of condemnation in acquiring the land in the Opportunity Site
require the City to operate strategically.

L AN D USE, R E DEVEL OPMENT AND P HYS ICA L IMAGE S T RATEG Y
This section of the plan describes a coordinated strategy for land use, redevelopment and community
physical image. This strategy addresses the City's intentions and hopes for the pattern of land use,
including changes to previously developed sites through regulation or guiding as well as by providing
monetary incentives. It also incorporates public improvements that will promote private investment
and enhance the livability of the community.
The strategy responds to previously identified issues and elaborates upon the Goals and Objectives.
Land use, redevelopment and physical image are discussed together because nearly all land-use
decisions in Brooklyn Center now involve redevelopment, and because public improvements to
infrastructure are seen as instrumental in promoting private re-investment. The strategy consists of
goals and objectives
GOALS
The following goals for land use, redevelopment and community image build upon the fundamental
goals presented in the Introduction. All the subsequent objectives and guidelines of this chapter support
these three land use and redevelopment goals:
1) Protect and enhance the residential neighborhoods.
2) Continuously renew and redevelop to make better use of land in City Center and the Brooklyn
3) Boulevard Corridor.
4) Improve the appearance of the city to enhance quality of life, property values and civic pride.
5) Improve the image of the City through branding and coordinated theme development in public
areas.
LAND USE AND REDEVELOPMENT OBJECTIVES
1) Gradually reduce and eliminate incompatible relationships among land uses (such as industry vs.
housing).
2) Reduce the geographic over-concentration of particular types of land development when that
pattern has become a negative influence on the community.
3) Continue the selective redevelopment of targeted areas, commercial, industrial and residential,
to eliminate obsolescent or deteriorating land uses and stimulate new investment.
• Identify key commercial redevelopment sites through this comprehensive plan and
subsequent investigations.
• Ensure that redeveloped sites adhere to the planning and design principles contained in this
comprehensive plan and special area plans (such as the Calthorpe Study, the
Opportunity Site Plan and Guidelines, the Brooklyn Boulevard Redevelopment Study and the
Brooklyn Boulevard Corridor Streetscape Amenities Study).
• Reduce the over-concentration of apartment buildings in certain neighborhoods by assisting
in redeveloping it to housing that has a lower density, a higher rate of owner-occupancy and
a more pedestrian-friendly relationship to the street.
4) Enhance and strengthen City Center’s economic viability and status in the regional market
place.

• Help increase retail sales, rental occupancy and tax base.
• Work with the managers of Brookdale Shopping Center to revitalize the area by adding
different but complementary land uses, structured parking, transit service, and better
public or community spaces.
• Promote the redevelopment of obsolete, underutilized or vacant sites into uses that
address needs in the marketplace, and that provide a more pedestrian-friendly
atmosphere.
• Explore the use of shared parking as a means of potentially increasing density and diversity
of uses.
• Improve the streets, corridors and other public spaces for the sake of unity, identity and
beauty.
• Assist in the gradual evolution of the Brooklyn Boulevard corridor consistent with the 1996
plan so that it offers a positive, complementary but different environment from that of the
City Center.
5) Use the zoning ordinance to provide for a more flexible mix of land uses and to encourage good
design.
COMMUNITY IMAGE OBJECTIVES
1. Improve the connections and linkages between neighborhoods, major corridors, parks and open
space, and City Center, through streetscape enhancements, signage systems, and other public
way improvements.

2030 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
CH. 4 – HOUSING PLAN
HOUSING PLAN
The City Center area, including the Opportunity Site, 57th and Logan and other areas near the Brookdale
Shopping Center, could be strengthened by the addition of complementary land uses such as mid-
density housing, along with structured parking to free up land now in surface lots, improved
pedestrian and transit amenities, and improved public or semi-public spaces. Of the 173 acres in this
area, 27 acres with 145 units of townhouses and 180 units of multiple family residential are planned.
HOUSING PRINCIPLES
As part of participating in the Metropolitan Livable Communities Act's Local Housing Incentives Program,
in 1996 the City declared its support for the following principles:
1. A balanced housing supply with housing available for people at all income levels.
2. The accommodation of all racial and ethnic groups in the purchase, sale, rental and location of
housing within the community.
3. A variety of housing types for people in all stages of the life cycle.
4. A community of well-maintained housing and neighborhoods, including ownership and rental
housing.
5. Housing development that respects the natural environment of the community while striving to
accommodate the need for a variety of housing types and costs.
6. The availability of a full range of services and facilities for its residents, and the improvement of
access to and linkage between housing and employment.
HOUSING GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
The following housing objectives build upon the goals presented in the first section of this plan. These
objectives overlap with the Land Use and Redevelopment objectives listed in Section 2,
since housing needs are closely linked to redevelopment.
1. Continue the selective redevelopment of targeted commercial, industrial and residential areas
to eliminate obsolescent or deteriorating land uses and stimulate new investment.
• Ensure that redeveloped sites adhere to the planning and design principles contained in this
comprehensive plan and special area plans (such as the Brooklyn Boulevard Redevelopment
Study, the Brooklyn Boulevard Corridor Streetscape Amenities Study, the Calthorpe Smart
Growth Study and the Opportunity Site Master Plan and Dev. Guidelines).
2. Work to ensure that the City's housing can evolve to meet the needs and demands of
its current and future population.
• Accommodate changing family and household structure by providing a suitable mix of
housing types.
• Foster a mix of housing values and incomes, including introduction of higher value housing
in lower income areas.
