• <br /> RECEIVED <br /> COUNCIL EXHIBIT B FEB 2 22010 <br /> Public Comments / Information <br /> #4 CITY OF ORONO <br /> Feb 21, 2010 <br /> Dear Orono City Council Members11 <br /> Please vote "NO" February 22, for the Conditional use permit for the <br /> Emily project. <br /> This "24/7 Medical Clinic" does not belong in our quiet neighborhood. <br /> A.D.A. <br /> Mayor White assured me that the only permitted use under the CUP is <br /> the treatment of Anorexia in young persons. <br /> Not true. The American Disabilities Act protects alcoholics and drug <br /> addicts. National laws always supersede local laws <br /> So, if Emily wishes to convert this facility to an alcoholics or drug <br /> addicts treatment facility, the City could not stop them. <br /> FIRE PROTECTION <br /> This structure is not protected by fire hydrants. I understand that it <br /> has sprinkler heads and that'the water is pumped from a tank from the <br /> basement. <br /> What, if there is a fire caused by an explosion in the electrical <br /> room. The building would go dark [exce t for emergency lights] and <br /> there would be no power running the pu p. The fire protection would <br /> fail leaving 10 young people unprotecte on the second floor. They <br /> would run screaming to the closest stair ay. These are not strong <br /> young people due to their Anorexia. W y is there no outside second <br /> floor fire exit? <br /> A fire at Hill would be spectacular. This 00 year building with oiled <br /> wood floors might just explode. I would not want to be the Council <br /> person that "OK'ed" this deal <br /> Legality of a "Yes vote" <br />
