MOTION BY Rieb SECONDED BY Wulff
RESOLUTION REQUESTING VARIATION FROM THE DAKOTA COUNTY UNIFORM
STREET NAMING AND ADDRESSING SYSTEM (USNAS) FOR STREET NAMES IN
SPIRIT OF BRANDTJEN FARM AND SPIRIT OF BRANDTJEN FARM 2"D ADDITION
WHEREAS, the plats of Spirit of Brandtjen Farm and Spirit of Brandtjen Farm 2"d
Addition are located within the 547 acre Spirit of Brandtjen Farm PUD District. (the "SBF
PUD") ;and
WHEREAS, the SBF PUD represents a unique and special development district
within the City of Lakeville; and
WHEREAS, the SBF PUD includes the extraordinary renovation and adaptation
of the prominent Dakota County farm known as the Brandtjen Stock Farm; and
WHEREAS, significant elements of the SBF PUD are intended to be thematically
grounded in the many attributes of the Brandtjen Stock Farm; and
WHEREAS, these attributes, the history, and the remarkable record of
achievement of the Brandtjen Stock Farm provide purposeful and meaningful reasons
to preserve the .legacy of the Brandtjen Stock Farm through street naming; and
WHEREAS, the street naming options that would be prescribed by USNAS for
the. area of the SBF PUD offer little opportunity to gain the desired link to the past and
are limited by virtue of being confined to places or things within an alphabetic range
generally between "Di" and "Ea"; and
. WHEREAS, Tradition Development, the developer of the SBF PUD, prefers to
name the streets in proximity to the Brandtjen Stock Farm in a manner that serves to
acknowledge the Brandtjen family, the award winning stock of the farm, and, in the
case of the minor collector parkway, the "Spirit" of innovation, determination, and
achievement that define what once was and what is hoped for once again with the SBF
PUD.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of
Lakeville requests that Dakota County consider variation from the Dakota County
Uniform Street Naming and Addressing System (USNAS) for street names in Spirit of
Brandtjen Farm and Spirit of Brandtjen Farm 2"d Addition.
