Orono City Council <br />October 16, 1978 <br />Page -2- <br />not the nature of the hazard be defined? <br />No, 14; V.hy not define the real problem, which as <br />Tt 'is'that after the station was opened up and in operation a <br />iomi.orSfl fnarlna was located across the highway and that m <br />recent years the station site on week-ends has been used tor <br />parking by the marina, with t’ e result that on week-ends in <br />late siring, summer or early all it has been necessary for <br />the Orono Public Safety Departnent to control the <br />oedestrians from the station Sxte to the marina. The find 8 <br />as presetly drafted is certainly overbroad and so general that <br />it really means nothing. <br />No. 13: When did these complaints start? What is their exact <br />Hitllli? Is part of the ha^rd caused by an adjoining property <br />owner using the dedicated street as his front yard? <br />No. 19: This station is not as vestlglal^as this finding would <br />imply7 and therefore it is inaccurate, ^he fact is that for <br />Lnz oil products and also had a coal ®?-ceDtion <br />site.

Would not such combined uses in ® <br />area"with a conditional use permit for motor fuel sales be con­ <br />sistent with the ordinances? Also, is CitJ^of"^ <br />76 located at the junction of Hwy. 51 and 135 in <br />Orono, and does it not combine and advertise the ®®J® <br />fuel and ice cream and hot sandwiches (snacks) and bait and the <br />like? <br />No. 42: We respectfully submit that gas stations in and of <br />themselves, unlike theatres, marinas, or other sources of <br />recreation and amusement do not generate traafic. Rather, <br />they depend upon traffic for existence. Pedestrian traffic
