At the present time our offices are contained within the offices of the Metropolitan Council in St. Paul; however because of a recent decision by Federal auditors regarding the allocation of expenses within the offices of the Metropolitan Council, it will be necessary for LOGIS to relocate its offices by November 1, 1976. After an extensive review of potential sites we have found a location on the Earl Brown Farm in Brooklyn Center which meets our requirements. That location is building spec 5, which is at 682 0 Shingle Creek Parkway. An area of 2 , 695 square feet was previously occupied by Medtronic for office space and if sub- divided in half will meet our needs very well. Accordingly, we are herewith requesting a special use permit to occupy the space as a business office use. LOGIS will combine with the Northwest Human Services Council to occupy approxi- mately 1,300 square feet of the property. The Human Services Council is also a joint powers agency to which the City of Brooklyn Center is a party. LOGIS will be the leasee. The combined staff of the two organizations presently consists of 7 full-time persons and 1 part-time person. One person may be added in 1977. Neither LOGIS nor the Human Services Council, by the nature of their business, have direct contact with the general public at the office; thus there is very little traffic of the type one would associate with, for example, an attorney's office, a real estate office, or similar commercial/office locations. Neither organization handles or stores merchandise or operates heavy equipment. The LOGIS computer service is supplied through the Hennepin County Data Processing system, located in Minneapolis. -2- Attached herewith is the application for a special use permit and a sketch showing the proposed office layout. Because of our unique situation I would be most appreciative if this matter could be placed on the September 30th Planning Commission agenda. Very truly yours , 7 T . L. Willard Executive Director TLW:ee Attach Planning Commission Information Sheet Application No. 76051 `.. Applicant: Local Government Information Systems (LOGIS) Location: 6820 Shingle Creek Parkway (Speculative Building No. 5) Request: Special Use Permit M The request is for permission to have a commercial office use in the I-1 District; such uses are special uses in this zone. The attached letter sets forth the basis for the request. The ordinance provides for certain commercial uses in the I-1 District as follows: Section 35-300 3. (f) Those commercial developments which, in each specific case, are demonstrated to the City Council to be: (1) Compatible with existing adjacent land uses as well as with those uses permitted in the I-1 district generally; (2) Complementary to existing adjacent land uses as well as to those uses permitted in the I-1 district generally; (3) Of comparable intensity to permitted I-1 district land uses with respect to activity levels; (4) Planned and designed to assure that generated traffic will be within the capacity of available public facilities and will not have an adverse impact upon the industrial park or the com- munity; and, which are described in Section 35-322 , Subsection 1 (a) through 1 (j); 3 (c); 3 (d); and 3 (g) through 3 (j). Such commercial developments shall be subject to I-1 district requirements of Section 35-400 and 35-413 and shall otherwise be subject to the ordinance requirements of the use classification which the proposed development represents. The space can be adopted to office use, and at this time there is allocated parking for office uses. Application No. 76051 (cont.) .The primary concern is that the request be considered on its merits, since general �-- precedent for office use of the primarily industrial (and incidental offices) is not desirable. It is significant that the proposed occupancy consists of administrative - coordinative agencies, and not of general commercial .public -oriented offices. This should be acknowledged in the recommendation. Approval would be subject to the following: 1 . The permit is issued to the applicant and is not transferable. 2. The permit comprehends the area of 6820 Shingle Creek Parkway shown on the approved plan; that area shall not be expanded without approved amendment of the permit. 3. The approved occupancy comprehends non-commercial, service oriented administrative offices. 4. Building plans are subject to review and approval by the Building Official with respect to applicable codes.
