Planning Commission Information Sheet
Application No. 2007-011
Applicant: City of Brooklyn Center (EDA)
Location: 6300 Earle Brown Drive
Request: Preliminary Plat
The City of Brooklyn Center Economic Development Authority (EDA) is seeking Preliminary
Plat approval to divide the property at 6300 Earle Brown Drive into two lots to provide separate
lots for two hotels proposed by the Planned Unit Development approved by the City Council on
May 14, 2007 under Planning Commission Application No. 2007-008.
The property in question is zoned PUD/C-lA (Planned Unit Development/Service-Office, no
height limit) and is located on the east side of the west leg of Earle Brown Drive adjacent to the
Earle Brown Heritage Center. It is bounded on the west and north by Earle Brown Drive with a
six story office building and I-94 right-of-way on the opposite side of the street; on the east by
the Earle Brown Heritage Center which is zoned C-2 (Commerce); and on the south by a high
rise office building (City County Federal Credit Union) zoned C-lA. The site is also located in
the City's CC -Central Commerce Overlay District and transient lodging, eating establishments
including eating establishments offering live entertainment and recreation and amusement places
are all uses allowed in this overlay district as well as the C-lA district.
The PUD approved by the City Council on May 14, 2007 comprehended a two building hotel
complex consisting of an eight story, 175 room Embassy Suites Hotel with a 100 seat restaurant
on the northerly portion of the property and concept approval for a 75 unit hotel to be located on
the southerly portion of the property. The reason for the lot division is so that the property for
the first phase can be conveyed to the developer. The second lot would be conveyed at a later
date when approval of the second phase has been accomplished and building permits would be
pursued.
The property under consideration is 6.21 acres in area and is currently described as Lot 1, Block
1, Brooklyn Farm Addition. It is proposed to be divided into Lot 1 and Lot 2, Brooklyn Farm
Second Addition. The proposed Lot 1, the northerly lot which will contain the Embassy Suites
Hotel, is to be 177,781 sq. ft. or 4.08 acres in area. The proposed Lot 2, the southerly lot which
will contain the 75 unit hotel, is to be 92,803 sq. ft. or 2.13 acres in area.
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, expanded easements to reflect the expanded pond
area and other matters will need to be provided. A driveway easement along the south property
line exists to provide access to this site and the City County Federal Credit Union site and will
6-28-07
Page 1
have to continue. A driveway easement between the proposed northerly parcel and the Earle
Brown Heritage Center does not show on the proposed plat but should be provided to reflect the
shared access between the two sites. An expanded easement over the ponding area will also be
provided.
It was noted at the time the Planned Unit Development was approved for the proposed
development that there would be a parking deficiency based on ordinance requirements when the
two hotels were developed. Eighty five parking spaces will be provided on the proposed Lot 2
which will be sufficient for that hotel. One hundred ninety five spaces will be provided on the
proposed Lot 1, which is 45 less than what is required to meet the ordinance requirements for this
parcel. The Earle Brown Heritage Center has surplus parking spaces and it has been agreed that
it will provide an off site parking agreement for the use of 45 parking spaces so that the hotel will
be in compliance with city ordinances. This agreement should be filed with the title to the
property at the time of the filing of the final plat.
Cross access and parking agreements between the proposed Lots 1 and 2 should be developed
and filed to acknowledge the aspects of the Planned Unit Development which comprehends a
free flowing of traffic and parking throughout the hotel sites. A physical connection between the
hotel on the proposed Lot 1 and buildings within the Earle Brown Heritage Center is also part of
the Planned Unit Development. Proper fire separations and building code considerations will be
complied with where this connection crosses the property line.
A public hearing has been scheduled for this preliminary plat and notices of the Planning
Commission's consideration of this matter has been published in the Brooklyn Center Sun/Post.
RECOMMENDATION
The proposed preliminary plat appears to be in order and approval of the 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. Appropriate cross access and cross parking agreements between Lots 1 and 2 of the
proposed Brooklyn Farm 2"a Addition shall be developed and filed with the titles to the
property.
4. An appropriate driveway easement between the proposed Lot 1 and the Earle Brown
Heritage Center property shall be verified or developed and filed with the title to the
properties.

5. All drainage and utility easements recommended to be vacated by the City Engineer shall
be vacated by ordinance amendment prior to final plat approval.
6. All easements required by the City Engineer for drainage and utility purposes shall be
executed prior to final plat approval.
7. An appropriate off site parking agreement providing up to 45 parking spaces on the Earle
Brown Heritage Center for the proposed Lot 1, Block 1, Brooklyn Farm 2"a Addition
shall be developed and filed with the titles to the property so that the site complies with
the minimum parking requirements
