Warren Planning Commission Secretary RAW:rsc cc: File No. 95003 Planning Commission Information Sheet Application No. 95003 Applicant: Brookdale Office Park Partnership Location: 3300 County Road 10 Request: Special Use Permit Amendment (92015) The applicant, Brookdale Office Park Partnership, requests an amendment to the Special Use Permit granted in December, 1992 (Planning Commission Application No. 92015) on behalf of Cardinal Strich College to operate an educational use in the five story office building located at 3300 County Road 10. The amendment would involve providing two additional classrooms and a student lounge to the existing three classrooms currently comprising the Cardinal Strich operation which occupies a portion of the fourth floor in the Brookdale Crossing office building. The property in question is zoned C-lA (service/office) and is bounded on the north by single family homes, on the east by a companion low rise office development, on the south by County Road 10, and on the west by Brooklyn Boulevard. The college currently occupies approximately 2,300 sq. ft. and would be incorporating an additional 2,000 sq. ft., giving them five classrooms and a student lounge area. Cardinal Strich College specializes in providing working adults with graduate level business, computer enhanced education in a night school setting. The classroom hours of operation are 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. and the college has a limit of 15 students per class. The additional space would allow 30 more students to the existing 45 student capacity. An educational use such as this was determined to be a special use in this zoning district when Metropolitan State University at 6300 Shingle Creek Parkway was approved under Planning Commission application No. 92011 in August of 1992. The Building Official has reviewed the proposal with respect to building code requirements for such an occupancy. His main concerns are occupant load and exiting. He has indicated that the floor plan submitted complies with code requirements and is acceptable. There will be a need for review of the sewer availability charge (SAC) from the Metropolitan Waste Control. Commission (MWCC) for a possible increase. There had been some discussion in 1992 about a possible parking formula amendment related to educational uses. No action was taken to modify the parking requirements, and the experience with Cardinal Strich College at this location has not indicatedia need to provide additional parking, although classroom hours are limited to evening hours when the remainder of the building is at its lowest level of use. Attached is a copy of the Standards for Special Use Permit, Section 35-220, Subdivision 2 of zoning ordinance. The granting of a Special Use Permit is to be consistent with these standards. We do not believe that this proposed expansion conflicts with these standards. A public hearing has been scheduled for this application and notices have been sent. 3-16-9.5 1 RECOMMENDATION The requested Special Use Permit amendment appears to be in order and approval is recommended, subject to at least the following conditions: 1. The amended Special Use Permit is issued to the applicant on behalf of Cardinal Strich College to operate an expanded night school in the Brooklyn Crossing office building at 3300 County Road 10. The school shall be allowed to occupy 4,300 sq. ft. of rentable space on the fourth floor as indicated in the applicant's submittal. Any alteration or expansion of the school use within the office building, shall require an amendment to this Special Use Permit. 2. The applicant shall receive a sewer availability charge determination from the MWCC and final approval from the Building Official with respect to exiting and occupancy prior to the issuance of a building permit for this expansion. 3. Classes shall be held between 6:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. weekdays and on weekends. No weekday day time classes are acknowledged by the approval of this amended Special Use Permit. 4. The amended Special Use Permit is subject to all applicable codes, ordinances and regulations, any violation thereof shall be grounds for revocation. 3-16-95 2 205 IIjI ss 2121221V� rImIs117►1 INI� How, LA I 1 Jri I• SUMMIT-_i I DR Application No. 95003 PAW SON 000, 1 N Ai I 02 R5 CO.

You may recall that in the Fall of 1992, Brookdale Office Park Partnership requested and received a Special Use Permit allowing the operation of a college at the Brooklyn Crossing Office Building. The Cardinal Stritch College operation, which specializes in providing working adults with graduate level business, computer -enhanced education, has proved very successful and Cardinal Stritch wishes to add two additional classrooms at Brooklyn Crossing, while extending its occupancy for an additional three years. The additional classrooms would allow Cardinal Stritch College to add 30 students to its existing 45 student capacity, given its enrollment limit of 15 students per class. The expanded area would add 2,000 square feet of classroom space to its existing 2,300 square feet of space. All other provisions of the existing Special Use Permit, including the limited hours of operation, conformance with all applicable codes, ordinances and regulations, and subjection to additional sewer availability charges, would remain unchanged. In summary, we feel that the expansion of the successful Cardinal Stritch College program would benefit the college, its students, the building and the City of Brooklyn Center, by providing needed classroom space for adult education. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions regarding our application. Sincerely, �i)wtv Bruce Carland Property Manager Enclosure 17. Section 35-220. SPECIAL USE PERMITS 2.

(d) Adequate measures have been or will be taken to provide ingress, egress and parking so designed as to minimize traffic congestion in the public streets.
