City of Brooklyn Center (EDA) 2009-001 Request for Preliminary Plat approval to combine and divide three lots located at the southwest quadrant of Freeway Boulevard and Humboldt Avenue North to create two new lots of 8.25 and 5.23 acres in area. 12. Other Business 13. Adjournment Application Filed on 12-23-08 City Council Action Should Be Taken By 2-21-09 (60 Days) Planning Commission Information Sheet Application No. 2009-001 Applicant: City of Brooklyn Center (EDA) Location: Southwest Quadrant of Freeway Boulevard and Humboldt Avenue North Request: Preliminary Plat The City of Brooklyn Center Economic Development Authority (EDA) is seeking Preliminary Plat approval to combine and divide three lots located at the southwest quadrant of Freeway Boulevard and Humboldt Avenue North to create two new lots, one 8.25 acres in area and the other 5.23 acres in area. The larger lot is for the proposed FBI field office while the other lot will be marketed by the EDA for future development, hopefully as a corporate office site. The property in question is zoned C-2 (Commerce) and is made up of three current lots that had contained the Days Inn Motel, the Cracker Barrel Restaurant and the Olive Garden Restaurant. These lots are located to the west of the Humboldt Avenue/I-94 overpass to TH 100; south of Freeway Boulevard; east and south of James Circle North; and north of I-94. The City of Brooklyn Center Economic Development Authority (EDA) acquired these three parcels and cleared the land of their structures in 2007 and 2008 to pursue redevelopment of the area for a corporate office or offices. In December of 2007, an agreement was reached between the City and the General Services Administration (GSA), which is the real estate and procurement arm of the Federal Government for the development of an FBI field office and annex building on a portion of the property. This agreement was formally announced in January 2008. The general plans include a 140,000 sq. ft. office building and a 30,000 sq. ft. annex building with structured parking which will be developed over all of the old Days Inn property and a portion of the old Cracker Barrel site. It is the City's responsibility to create an appropriate site of an agreed to 8.25 acres and that is the primary purpose of this application. The total area of the property under consideration in this proposed plat is 587,824 sq. ft. or 13.49 acres. It is proposed to be divided into Lot 1 and Lot 2, Block 1, Richardson Industrial Park Third Addition. The proposed Lot 1, which is to be the site of the FBI facility, will be 359,654 sq. ft. or 8.25 acres in area. The proposed Lot 2 will be 228,169 sq. ft. or 5.23 acres and will be marketed for future development. The Director of Public Works/City Engineer is reviewing the proposed plat and his written comments are attached for the Commission's review. Some existing drainage and utility easements will need to be vacated and new easements reflecting relocated utilities and other matters will need to be provided. An existing water main that ran through the old Olive Garden site and along the boundary separating the old Days Inn and Cracker Barrel site which was protected by a corresponding easement, will need to be relocated so that it does not cross the proposed FBI site. Various locations for the relocated utilities are being considered and will 1-15-09 Page 1 need to be reflected on the final plat for this application. The City Engineer is evaluating the location of the replacement water line and a new easement will need to be provided for the location of that new utility. New drainage and utility easements as approved by the City Engineer will be required along the boundaries of the newly created lots as well. The agreement between the City and GSA will be assigned to the developer of the project which is yet to be chosen by GSA. A site and building plan application for the development of this project will need to be submitted and reviewed and approved by the Planning Commission and City Council. No date has yet been established for this application, however, the plan is for construction to begin this Spring and the replat will need to be accomplished for building permits to be issued. A public hearing has been scheduled for this preliminary plat and notice of the Planning Commission's consideration of this matter as been published in the Brooklyn Center Sun/Post. RECOMMENDATION The proposed Preliminary Plat appears to be in order and approval of this application 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. All drainage and utility easements required to be vacated shall be vacated by ordinance amendment prior to final plat approval. 4. All easements required by the City Engineer for drainage and utility purposes shall be executed prior to final plat approval. 5. The relocation of the existing water main shall be approved by the City Engineer and an appropriate easement shall be developed and filed with the final plat. Page 2 -VI A. 63TH. AVE. M.

The final plat must include dedicated public drainage and utility easements over the following locations and existing or proposed public utilities, as determined by the City Engineer: A. A 20-ft wide drainage and utility easement extending over the proposed watermain location from the southeast corner of Lot 1, northeasterly to the existing watermain connection point. B. A 10-ft wide drainage and utility easement along the perimeter boundary of the plat. C. A 20-ft wide drainage and utility easement centered on the common property line between Lots 1 and 2. D. A drainage and utility easement must contain the limits of the existing easement located around the storm water treatment pond. 2. The existing trunk watermain located within the site must be removed and relocated, centered within the proposed 20-ft drainage and utility easement 3. Private site modifications or improvements have not been evaluated as part of the preliminary plat approval process. No physical modifications or improvements pertaining to any feature (either private or public) located within the limits of the subdivision boundary are allowed unless proper approval is obtained by the City. 4. A Traffic Impact study is required in connection with any future redevelopment of this area. Should needed roadway improvements be identified, additional dedication of right- Richardson Industrial Site 3rd Add. Preliminary Plat Memo, January 12, 2009 Page 2 of 2 of-way may be required. Other impacts to the public roadway system will likewise be evaluated at the time of any future development, included but not limited to regional roadway improvements, access control modification, etc. The existing driveway access point located in the northeast of Lot 1 must be permanently closed under any redevelopment scenario. 5. Legal descriptions must be obtained for all existing easements, which must be vacated as part of the subdivision and site re-development process. 6. An updated certified abstract of title or registered property report must be provided to the City Attorney for review at the time of the final plat application (within 30 days of release of the final plat). 7. The proposed subdivision plat is located adjacent to Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) highway right-of-way. Minnesota Statutes require that the City submit the plat to the Department of Transportation for written comments and recommendations. The plat has been submitted and comments are forthcoming. All Mn/DOT comments will be conditions of approval. 8. The site development plans and utility relocations must be reviewed and coordinated with Xcel Energy, CenterPoint Energy, Qwest Communications and other private utility companies prior to final plat application, vacation of easements and/or approval of any site modifications. The aforementioned comments are provided based on the information submitted by the applicant at the time of this review. Subsequent approval of the final plat and site plans may require additional modifications based on engineering requirements associated with final design of the water supply, storm drainage, sanitary sewer, final grading and geometric design as established by the City Engineer and other public officials having jurisdiction over approval of the final site plans.
