MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> Monday,May 19,2008 <br /> 6:00 o'clock p.m. <br /> (#08-3360 BOB RITTER WITA BERKSHIRE PARTNERS,CONTINUED) <br /> Zullo noted the City's handicap parking is based upon the number of total stalls and asked whether the <br /> City has any guidelines for having wider parking spaces or designated parking for mothers with <br /> children. <br /> Turner stated the City does not have any other designated parldng guidelines and that handicap parking <br /> regulations are governed by state and federal rules. <br /> Zullo asked whether parking is limited on this site and if certain stalls could be wider in design. <br /> Turner indicated the parking is somewhat limited on this site. <br /> Zullo stated given the type of facility that is being proposed, she would like to see some wider parking <br /> stalls designated to handle wheelchairs and other disabled people that may visit an orthopedist's office. <br /> Todd Mohagan stated the individual tenants may designate certain stalls for their use and that there <br /> would also be a drop-off site available at the building,which would handle those types of clientele. <br /> Mohagen indicated the majority of the services would be outpatient. <br /> Zullo stated in her experience some wider parking spaces would allow for wheelchairs. <br /> Mohagen noted they are currently one parking stall over the required number. <br /> Kroeger commented that he sees it as more of a proximity issue rather than a width issue. <br /> Zullo asked whether the City has any guidelines for the depth of a loading dock. <br /> Turner indicated the requirement is 25 feet,which would handle the smaller trucks. The revised plan <br /> does provide the 25 feet. <br /> Zullo stated she would like to see the loading dock wider and deeper. <br /> Chair Kempf asked if the applicant had anything to add to Staff's report. <br /> Mohagen stated he had one clarification to Staff's report where it talks about clear glass. The glass <br /> would be tinted with clear anodized frames,which gives it a silver look. In addition,the applicant is <br /> interested in adding some sidewalks for pedestrian access and they have revised their plan to depict that. <br /> Kempf asked whether there would be an area along the building for plantings. <br /> Mohagen stated there would be. The current landscape plan will also be�revised to reflect landscaping <br /> along the east side of the site. <br /> Chair Kempf opened the public hearing at 7:40 p.m. <br /> There were no public comments regarding this application. <br /> PAGE 9 <br />
