candles. He said there was also a stipulation indicating that there had to be landscaping
installed along the roadway front 15 ft. wide, and the parking should be either on the side
or rear with none in the front of the building. He said with these types of restrictions, it
would be difficult for a franchise type business to go there. He said there were many
conditions the fire department agreed to without the conditional use zoning. Warren said
that it would be a stronger case if there were conditions on the uses, but they had a strong
case with the RPO being a part of the property. He said that if they were to develop it
now, there would be no landscaping, parking or lighting restrictions, except what was in
the zoning ordinance.
Commissioner Williams asked if a 30 ft. setback on commercial was stipulated.
Warren said there was a 30 ft. setback from the side or rear if NB was next to residential.
Williams said 30 ft. of the 80 ft. would be a setback anyway.
Robertson asked Mr. Adams if his main problem was about restaurants on the
site.
Mr. Adams said he wanted a site specific plan agreeable to everyone. He said this
was discussed as a remedy at the planning board meeting. Adams expressed concerns
about convenience stores, carwashes, and fast food restaurants. He said Office -
Institutional zoning was mentioned in the planning board meeting, and these types would
be appropriate because they would close at 5 p.m. and not be open on the weekends.
Adams asked for the request to be remanded back to the staff.
No one else desired to speak, and Chairman Tice adjourned the public hearing.
