CITY OF HOPKINS
. Hennepin County, Minnesota
ORDINANCE NO. 04-921
AN ORDINANCE ESTABLISHING AN OVERLAY DISTRICT
Finding of Fact
The Hopkins City Council in 2001 commissioned a study of the "East End" of Hopkins, an area
encompassing primarily the properties lying adjacent to Excelsior Bou]evard and Blake Road.
The study's primary purpose was to identify and evaluate the development and redevelopment
challenges and opportunities within the study area. To receive the study's full benefit. the City
Council in December 2002 approved an interim ordinance imposing a moratorium on all forms
of land use development in the study area. The study report, the "East Hopkins Land Use &
Market Study," was presented to the City Council in July 2003, The moratorium was extended
until June 2004 to permit the City Council to evaluate the study's findings,
In accord \vith its adoption of the study, and to facilitate implementation of the study's
rccommcndations regarding redevelopment of Hopkins' east end, the City Council finds it is
necessary and appropriate to make changes to Hopkins' Comprehensive Plan and to the Hopkins
loning ordinance and other land use controls, The City Council, therefore, creates by ordinance
the East End Redevelopment Overlay District The purpose and intent of creating the District is
. to ensure a high quality of development and redevelopment along Excelsior Boulevard by
providing guidance and flexibility to establish new, mixed-use development in the District.
