P/I Form No. 19 Planning Commission Information Sheet Application No. 79024 Applicant: Brooklyn Center Industrial Park Location: West portion of Outlot H, Twin Cities Interchange Park (Southeast quadrant of I-94 and Xerxes Avenue North Request: Preliminary Plat Approval The applicant is seeking preliminary plat approval to subdivide an approximate 3 acre tract into 11 single family residential lots. The parcel is located adjacent to and easterly of Xerxes Avenue North, south of the freeway. The area is bounded on the west by Xerxes Avenue North, on the north by the freeway ramp, on the east by City park property and on the south by single family residential lots that face 65th Avenue North. The subject property is 3 acres of an approximate 10 acre parcel that was part of highway right-of-way. The Highway Department no longer has need for the property and the City has obtained the 7 acres to the east of this site and plans to incorporate it into its Central Park plans. The proposed plat compre- hends creating 11 single family lots that all meet ordinance standards which would be serviced by a cul-de-sac leading from Xerxes Avenue North. This site was the subject of a rezoning request under Application No. 79007 which comprehended an R-2 zoning on the north half of the site. This appli- cation was withdrawn by the applicant following a public hearing held by the Planning Commission. The plat seems to be in order with respect to the size and configuration of the proposed lots. One problem that must be addressed before final plat approval and the filing of the plat has to do with school district boundaries. The boundary line for the Osseo School District and the Brooklyn Center School District runs through portions of the lots on the north side of the proposed cul-de-sac. Brooklyn Center School District has been informed of this matter and the Superintendent has indicated that he will be discussing the matter with the Osseo School District Superintendent. A redrawing of the district boundary lines would be in order, but is subject to the approval of both school districts. The City Engineer will be prepared to review the plat in more detail. A public hearing has been scheduled and notices have been sent. Approval of the preliminary plat should be subject to at least the following conditions: 1. The final plat is subject to the requirements of Chapter 15 of the City Ordinances. 2. The final plat is subject to review by the City Engineer. 3. Agreement between the Osseo School District and the Brooklyn Center School District regarding district boundary lines running through --this area shall be resolved prior to final plat approval. 5-10-79 Planning Commission Information Sheet Application No. 79024 Applicant: Brooklyn Center Industrial Park Location: West Portion of Outlot H, Twin Cities Interchange Park (southeast quadrant of I-94 and Xerxes Avenue North) Request: Preliminary Plat Approval The applicant is seeking preliminary plat approval to subdivide an approximate 3 acre tract into 11 single family residential lots. The parcel is located adjacent to and easterly of Xerxes Avenue North, south of the Freeway. The area is bounded on the west by Xerxes Avenue North; on the north by the Freeway ramp; on the east by City park property and on the south by single family residential lots that face 65th Avenue North. This matter was tabled by the Planning Commission on May 10, 1979 and the Com- mission's intention is directed to the Planning Commission minutes and Planning Commission information sheet of that date. The application was tabled until questions regarding rear yard setbacks from major thoroughfares could be clarified and an opinion obtained from the City Attorney's office. The Commission had also requested a statement from the Department of Transportation regarding when the Xerxes Avenue freeway ramps would be vacated. The Commission's action also in- dicated that the Planning Commission felt the plat was in order except for clari- fication regarding the setbacks from major thoroughfares. Attached is a copy of a letter from William Clelland of the City Attorney's office regarding the matter of whether or not 50 ft. setback requirements would be applied to the front, rear and side corners of the lots in question in the plat. It is the City Attorney's opinion that even though the property does abut a major thoroughfare, the minimum 50 ft. setback requirement for abutting a major thorughfare will apply only to the front and side corner setback requirements of these lots. The City Engineer has also received correspondence from MN/DOT regarding the status of the Xerxes Avenue freeway ramps. This application points out a possible inconsistency with respect to the setback requirements for major thoroughfares. It does not seem reasonable that if an extraordinary setback is required off of a major thoroughfare that the rear yard setback be excluded from this requirement. Likewise, further review of the ordinance setback requirements regarding major thoroughfares might well be in order, in particular, where noise abatement walls are located. It is felt that an argument can be made that the extraordinary setbacks need not be required where such structure are either in place or contemplated in the relatively near future.. The staff will be reviewing this matter for a report and a recommendation at an upcoming Planning Commission meeting. Approval of Application No. 79024 is recommended subject to the following conditions: 1. The final plat is subject to the requirements of Chapter 15 of City Ordinances. 2. The final plat is subject to review by the City Engineer. 3. Agreement between the Osseo School District and the Brooklyn Center School District regarding district boundary lines running through this area shall be resolved prior to final plat approval. 6-14-79
