2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. The proposed medical office building at 16,000 s.f. in area rather than 15,000 s.f. remains at a one story design and retains the same architectural styling as the original plan. The building orientation has been reversed so that its front entrance is facing northeast toward Kelley Parkway rather than southwest toward the intersection of Hwy 12 & Old Crystal Bay Road. Applicants have advised the City that they now have a signed purchase agreement to acquire the 2.5 acre Adjacent Parcel to the east, and the Revised Concept Plan indicates the potential for additional parking on that site as well as a shared access to Kelley Parkway. The easterly entrance to Kelley Parkway in the Revised Concept Plan will be a full access shared entrance with the Adjacent Parcel. This was formerly an “in- only ” access point. It is located directly across from the Orono Police driveway as required by the City to eliminate left-turning conflicts for exiting vehicles. The westerly access from Kelley Parkway will be “in-only ” which provides easy access for patient drop-off and pick-up while providing less of a stacking backup conflict for cars exiting onto westbound Kelley Parkway. The easterly parking lots are connected by two “through” corridors to additional parking on the Adjacent Parcel. Based on applicants’ revised submittal C2.1, required parking is 72 stalls, of which 67 are provided on-site and 5 are provided on the adjacent property to the east. Tlie site plan indicates that a total of 15 stalls are proposed on the Adjacent Parcel to serve this site, due to the applicants’ expectation that a total of 83 stalls are likely necessary to adequately serve their intended use of the building. The revised parking layout appears to meet the appropriate engineering and zoning design standards in terms of stall size, driving lane width, etc. The 2.5 acre Adjacent Parcel for which the applicants have a purchase agreement, is similarly guided in the Orono Community Management Plan for commercial office use and is also currently zoned RR-IB. It would be appropriate for this Adjacent Parcel to be rezoned to B-6/PUD concurrently with rezoning of the property. The Adjacent Parcel should be subject to the same development standards as the property, as they will be guided and zoned identically. Page 2 of 12
