� #04-2974 Stonebay Outlot A <br /> CMP Amendment Text <br /> Apri115,2004 . <br /> Page 5 � <br /> The tlurd of the four parcels is Outlot D of Stonebay, a 3.5 acre parcel likewise �uided for office <br /> use and anticipated to be developed for office use clurin�tlie perioci 2004-2006. <br /> These three abuttin�parcels are located across Highwav 12 from the Orono Industrial Park <br /> which in the past has been used for processin� and manufacturin�. The indust�•ial park has <br /> potential for redevelopnieiit and is �uided to encoura�e conversion to light industria.l lu h tech <br /> uses, as well as office-slZOwroom. The Citv does not intend to a11ow conunercial retail or service <br /> uses within the uidustrial park. <br /> The fourth parcel, Outlot A, Stonebay, 3.5 acres in area, is located at the nortliwest quadrant of <br /> the si�nalized Hi hwav 12 / Willow Drive intersection. Outlot A is remotely located from the <br /> first three parcels, separated from them bv a re�ional storinwater pond. The opposite three <br /> quadrants of the 12/Willow intersection are developed with retail uses; the NE quadrant is a <br /> garden center with adjoiiuu� retail shops; the SE quadrant is an off-sale liquor store and coffee <br /> drive-thru; and the S W quadrant is a conveiueiice store/service station. <br /> Outlot A azid the three ot}ler parcels between Kelley Parkway and Highwav 12 are currently <br /> ' guided for office use with minor retail accessorv to the office use. The purpose of this u� iding <br /> was to avoid creating a substantial retail center with its attendant traffic and visual iinpacts, and <br /> to avoid the expansion of retail substantially westward from its current terminus at the <br /> intersection of 12/Willow. This �oal has been to a �reat extent met bv the office developments <br /> completed, underwav and anticipated west of the regional storm water pond. <br /> The Stonebay residential development inunediately north of Kelley Parkwav will eventuallX <br /> include approxinlatelv 160 residential units. That development was approved with the concept of <br /> walkability in mind, includin�ple sidewalk and trail connections to the conunercial areas to <br /> the southeast as well as to the Citv facilities and Orono Schools campus to the west. The <br /> Stonebay residential developinent will result in a mixed use neighborhood, with residential, <br /> office and institutional uses. This niixed use nei�hborhood would benefit from nearbv <br /> iiei�hborliood-scale retail uses that would serve the nei�hborhood. <br /> The retail uses tliat would most benefit the niix of residential and non-residential uses iii the <br /> nei�hborhood, would be a i�ei�hborhood-scale pharmacy/conveiuence store and nei�hborhood- <br /> scale food-oriented uses. � <br /> This amendment to the 2000-2020 Comniunitv Management Plan re-�uides Outlot A of <br /> Stoizebav to additionallv allow for iieighborhood-scale retail uses, as an alternative to the o�ce <br /> use for which it is cunentiv �uided. The definition of "ilei�hborhood-scale retail uses" for <br /> Outlot A includes the followin�parameters which nlust be adhered to for auY retail use <br /> developed azid maintained on the propet�t� <br />
