PlanningBoard | 2012-08-27 | 4 | Foley Street, Tilden Way, and Park Street. The applicant is also requesting a conditional use permit for approval of a drive-thru lane and window and 24 hour operations. The application also requires the removal and replacement of up to two existing street trees in the Tilden Way median. Vice President Burton recused himself. Andrew Thomas, Planning Services Manager, gave brief presentation. President Zuppan clarified with staff that the plans have changed and now included actual windows facing Tilden. Greg Kline, architect, gave brief presentation and corrected staff's presentation stating that CVS prefers the right turn only option from the driveway onto Park Street. He clarified that the arched glass above the window boxes is clear glass and allows pedestrians to see in. Board member Ezzy Ashcraft clarified with Mr. Kline that the glass used in the window arches on Tilden Way, the arched windows in the rear of Pad A building as well as the Pad B is spandrel glass, which has a coating that doesn't allow people to see through it. She confirmed with staff that the code requires 1 bicycle parking space per every 10 vehicle spaces. Obaid Khan, City Traffic Engineer, confirmed that two long term bicycle parking spaces (bike lockers) have been included in the conditions (number 61), which is in addition to the regular, short-term bicycle parking. Board member Ezzy Ashcraft clarified with staff that turn-around space according to the traffic study REA has been provided. She clarified that space in the parking lot for a holiday tree has also been reserved. Josh Eisenhut, Armstrong Development, gave brief presentation. Board member Henneberry clarified with Mr. Einsenhut that by requesting the 24 hour use permit now, before business conditions warrant the need, allows CVS all the necessary permits to quickly implement operational hour changes in the future without seeking additional approval. Board member Ezzy Ashcraft clarified with staff that it would take less than two months to hold a public hearing and seek approval for CVS to extend operating hours. She confirmed with Mr. Eisenhut that Armstrong Developers have opened several CVS stores in urban settings; however those stores were modifications to an existing building.
