Resolution supporting an application by Union Park Flats
to the Minnesota Brownfields’ Brownfield Gap Financing program
Whereas, the Brownfield Gap Financing Program provides small grants to nonprofits for
environmental assessment and clean-up of property in Hennepin County through funding
from Hennepin County’s Environmental Response Fund from Hennepin County Department of
Environmental Services; and
Whereas, Minnesota Brownfields, a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization, is the
administrator of the Brownfield Gap Financing Program; and
Whereas, Brownfield Gap Financing Program projects benefit the community through the
development or clean-up of greenspace, recreation centers, affordable housing, education
centers, community centers, and neighborhood level economic development opportunities.
Whereas, the city council voted on July 6, 2020, to approved Ordinance No. 2588 -20
creating a Planned Unit Development Zoning District for the Union Parks Flats project located at
3700 Alabama Avenue South and 6027 37th Street West.
Now therefore be it resolved that, the St. Louis Park EDA supports the Union Park Flats
project’s application to Minnesota Brownfields for funding through the Brownfields Gap
Funding Program. This application is being submitted to Minnesota Brownfields
by Project for Pride in Living.
I certify that the above resolution was adopted by the St. Louis Park Economic
