MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br /> MEETING HELD ON JANUARY 20, 1998 <br /> • -#2327 Orono Development - Continued) <br /> (#18 p <br /> John O'Sullivan said his original intent for inclusion in the B-5 District had food in mind. <br /> The only food in the area is at the Dairy Queen. He did not want to see fast food, which <br /> may be included in the B-1. O'Sullivan said he has spoken with people in the <br /> neighborhood, who feel the coffee and bagel sales is consistent with the neighborhood. <br /> He sees this use as the candy shop of the 1950's. <br /> Smith asked if the coffee-bagel sales purpose was to primarily serve the neighborhood or <br /> to serve area employees. Dillon said the purpose was for the neighbors and customers of <br /> the bank. <br /> The Commissioners questioned how much traffic would be generated by these uses. It <br /> was agreed that the traffic would be more than what is generated by the bank. Dillon felt <br /> the use would be subtle with the majority being take-out customers. Dillon reported that <br /> the tenants themselves determine what traffic needs they must have to generate enough <br /> business. Hawn said the B-5 District speaks of the undesirability of high traffic generators <br /> and feels the use is not compatible with this zoning district. <br /> Gaffron noted that the Dairy Queen is a seasonal business. O'Sullivan added that this <br /> particular Dairy Queen is a high volume store for a non-Brazier Dairy Queen. <br /> • John Erickson suggested taking the property to the north of O'Sullivan and zoning it all <br /> commercial. <br /> Sepena asked is the uses were substantially different from that of a Dairy Queen. Hawn <br /> said she felt the Dairy Queen was present due to its historical insertion in the district. <br /> Hawn said she is against the restaurant uses. Gaffron noted that the property was changed <br /> to B-5 from residential one year ago. <br /> Dillon said he felt the coffee-bagel use is similar to the candy, ice cream, etc. use. He will <br /> ask the applicant to amend the application to eliminate the pizza sales. <br /> Lindquist moved, Smith seconded, to approve the amendment of the B-5 for allowed <br /> conditional uses to include coffee retail sales and bagel retail sales. <br /> Schroeder felt the neighbors would appreciate these businesses. <br /> McMillan asked if the uses would be tied into the candy, ice cream, etc. category. <br /> Lindquist said the uses would be added to the list of conditional uses. <br /> • <br /> 33 <br />
