MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO PLANNING COM^nSSION MEETING <br />Monday, June 17,2002 <br />6:30 o^clock p.m. <br />arrive per month. <br />Mr. Fitchel indicated that they average 10 transports offloading per month, adding that the furthest <br />locations would not use this for their centralized drop off site. <br />Bellows questioned whether the proposed berming and landscaping were in lieu of fencing. <br />Weinberger stated that the City will almost always prefer landscaping to a 6* high fence. <br />Bellows then questioned the safety issues that might arise with transports turning at the trafTic light. <br />Weinberger stated that the City reserves the right to look into a future service road for the area, with a <br />light. <br />Mr. Johnson e.xplained that access issues have been discussed at length and Morries is willing to respond <br />to proposals when they are made. It is their intention to work with the City to provide better access. <br />Smith clarified the figures, 10 customers a day, 10 transports a month, adding that all that is left to be <br />determined is the hours of operation. She asked how the Commission could manage this application <br />further to ensure that si.\ months from now, the applicant has gone beyond what is been pictured. <br />Mr. Fitchel stated that in his estimation, the fleet sales hours of operation may require some evening <br />hours, while the wholesale hours may be more broad. <br />Rahn stated that fleet sales could feasibly operate like normal business hours, 9AM to 6 PM t>pically, <br />with a Saturday 9AM to noon schedule as a reasonable addition. <br />Fritzler maintained that the body shop industrial operation would need to be open later. <br />Bellows argued that if the parts and body shop are wholesale, it should not be necessary for them to be <br />open at odd hours. <br />PAGE 33 OF 42 <br />! <br />s <br />I
