CityCouncil | 2012-10-16 | 9 | Mayor Gilmore inquired what CVS's peak hours are for the drive thru. Mr. Eisenhut responded from 12:00 p.m. to 1 p.m., and 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Mayor Gilmore stated unloading could be done by 8 a.m. if trucks arrive at 7 a.m.; inquired when the Market Place opens, to which the Acting City Planner responded 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Vice Mayor Bonta inquired what time the trucks arrive at the existing site. Mr. Eisenhut responded he is not familiar with delivery patterns at the current location; stated schedules vary, which is why CVS is requesting the two-hour window. Councilmember deHaan inquired whether leaving the hours as approved by the Planning Board would be disruptive, to which Mr. Eisenhut responded deliveries would not be as disruptive as during peak hours. Mayor Gilmore stated the Council is trying to balance CVS's needs with the needs of the neighborhood. Councilmember Johnson stated that she would prefer to not allow CVS to add a driveway on Foley Street. The Acting City Planner stated that if CVS does not get the reciprocal access agreement with the Market Place, the Foley entry and exit would not exist and cars would go out Tilden; the two driveways at the Market Place would remain. Mayor Gilmore noted the Council discussed requiring employee parking on site and the parking fee issue, which only becomes an issue if CVS shares parking with the Market Place. The Acting City Planner stated the parking fee issue only applies if the reciprocal parking easement is not achieved. Mayor Gilmore stated that she is in favor of leaving the loading zone hours with giving some leeway to unload from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. The Acting City Planner stated the Planning Board decided the loading had to be between 7 a.m. and 10 p.m. but the store could be open 7 a.m. to 11 p.m.; Council would just be modifying that condition to allow loading whenever the store is open; further stated the conditions the Council is interested in modifying are: 1) adding a condition about employee parking on site; 2) there is no Foley Street exit or parking fees if there is no reciprocal access easement; 3) and allowing loading until 11 p.m. Vice Mayor Bonta stated that he does not think the extra hour to unload until 11 p.m. is beneficial.
