Special Permit Application 74 Main Street, Douglas, MA

Project Narrative

The proposed project is the construction of a"5,146 s.f. commercial building on a currently undeveloped 232,908 sf. (5.346 ac.) parcel. The parcel is located at 74 Main Street at the northeast corner of Main Street and Reidell Street. The proposed use for the commercial building is a convenience store with a drive through for coffee sales for a portion of the space and office space for the remaining space. The site development will consist of the one-story building, paved driveways and parking areas, (2) stormwater management basins, septic system and utilities. Access to the site will be provided via driveways entering from Main Street and from Reidell Street. The proposed use requires 37 parking spaces and 37 spaces will be provided; 26 spaces in front of the building and 11 spaces on the east side. The two required accessible parking spaces are located in the front of the building. The proposed loading space and trash receptacles will be located in the rear of the building. The traffic flow is designed to provide for queueing for the drive-through window around the rear of the building with adequate driveway width to permit pass though of vehicles:Proposed parking spaces, drive aisles and loading spaces comply with Town of Douglas Zoning By-Laws.

The parcel is located within the DEP Approved Zone II within the Water Resource District. Proposed sanitary sewage disposal will be via a septic system at the front of the site along Main Street. The proposed estimated sewage flows will be 1,315 gallons per day. Soil testing for the septic system has been done by a Certified Soil Evaluator and soils were found to be suitable for the septic system with extremely permeable, sandy soils. A full septic system design will be done and submitted for approval following local site plan approvals.

The proposed commercial building will be served by public water from water mains located in Main Street and Reidell Street. Electric and telephone service will be provided from the overhead service lines on the adjacent streets. Stormwater runoff from the site will flow to (2) stormwater basins where the runoff will infiltrate with no leaving the site The runoff will flow through hydrodynamic separating units for treatment prior to discharge to the basins.

The proposed development is a permitted use in the Commercial Zone and is in character with the area The abutting parcels are all within the Commercial Zone. The proposed development will generate tax revenue for the Town and the proposed retail use will provide convenience for the local residents. Traffic on the local roadways is relatively light and will not be adversely affected by the small amount of traffic

Re: 74 Main Street, Douglas, MA

Dear Mr. Cyr:

You have submitted a Site Plan Review application to construct a commercial building for a convenience store/ office with a drive through window for coffee sales on the property located at 74 Main Street, Douglas, MA. The property is also identified as Parcel #33 on Douglas , • Assessor's Map #188 and is located in a Commercal Zoned •

i

Area.

Although the retail and office uses are allowed uses within the Commercial Zoned Area, under the Douglas Zoning Bylaws, Appendix A-Schedule of Use Regulations, Letter F Other Uses, #1 reads as follows:

Trive-through or drive-up window or facility at otherwise authorized Use or as free-standing structure or kiosk"

Under the Commercial District a drive-through is allowed by Special Permit from the Zoning Board of Appeals.

You will need to submit a Special Permit application to the Douglas Zoning Board of Appeals to obtain approval for the Drive-through window before a building permit would be approved for plans that include the drive-through window.

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact our office. You can reach us at 508-476-4000 ext. 351. We will be happy to assist you in any way we can.

DECISION CASE NO. 2015-02 ALFRED BENESCH & COMPANY

74 MAIN STREET

Decision of the Douglas Zoning Board of Appeals (the "ZBA"), upon the Application of, Alfred Benesch & Co. with an address of 90 National Drive, Glastonbury, CT 06033, (the "Applicant") for a Special Permit pursuant to the Town of Douglas Zoning Bylaws, Appendix A — Schedule of Use Regulations, Letter F-Other Uses, #1 for a drive-through window. The property is located in a Commercial Zoned District at 74 Main Street, Douglas, MA 01516 (the "Locus"), Map 188, Parcel 33. A Public Hearing was held on April 1, 2015, at the Douglas Municipal Center, pursuant to notice thereof published once in two successive weeks in a newspaper of general circulation in Douglas, the first publication of which was not less than fourteen days before the day of the Public Hearing, by posting such notice at the Town Hall at least fourteen days prior to the day of the Public Hearing and by mailing a copy of said notice to all parties in interest.

Subject to the below Findings, the Application for a Special Permit is Denied.

FINDINGS: 1. The Application has been previously presented to the Douglas Planning

Board, which, based upon the material presented to them, had no objection to the request for a Special Permit. However, there were concerns from the Police Chief (regarding access to/from entrances), Fire Chief (relocate the telephone pole) and Highway Superintendent (Pole #73 should be relocated due to increased traffic exiting RiedeII Road and would also like to see "No Parking" signs along Main Street due to possible truck parking on Main Street).

2. The Locus is in a Commercial Zoned District with 232,908 square feet of land (5.346 acres).

3. The Applicant did not present any revised plans or propose other options for the drive-through window.

4. As grounds for denying this Special Permit, the Board finds as follows: a. East bound traffic turning left in to the proposed drive thru would be

hampered by solar glare while cutting across the west bound lane. - ----This-woulthrosult in-safcty-issues.-- - - - — ------------

NOTE: Any person aggrieved by this decision may appeal to the Worcester Superior Court within 20 days of the date the As., decision is filed with the Douglas Town Clerk. No variance or special permit issued by the ZBA shall take effect until it has been',..- filed in the Worcester County Registry of Deeds with certification from the Town Clerk that 20 days have elapsed Oncrchel decision was filed with the Town Clerk and that no appeal has been filed or if such appeal has been filed, it has been disi0clAri 7,7 = denied. a 205

TTY: 508-476-1619

b. The distance from the curve in the road appox 600-800' west of the proposed entrance is of concern due to its proximity to the drive- through entrance. In the event that traffic queues extend to the street, dangerous conditions could result. Similar concerns relate to the change in road elevation.

c. The traffic study was not done on the busiest day or time of the week - Saturday AM. Given access to the transfer station and sports activities, this is a very busy time Also additional traffic was not considered for the summer months. Douglas has many recreational areas open in the summer VVallum Lake, including water slides, several campgrounds, the state forest (motorcycles, horseback riding, hiking and mountain-biking). Travel on Rt 16 is necessary to access these activities.

d. Anecdotal information indicates that there have been several serious car accidents in the area

e. Having an additional drive-through in this area would result in significantly more traffic which would adversely affect the neighborhood's character.

f. Several residents opposed the plan as presented 5. Approval of the request of the Applicant would substantially nullify or

derogate from the intent and purpose of the Bylaws, which ensure adequate access to and from entrances.

NOTE: Any person aggrieved by this decision may appeal to the Worcester Superior Court within 20 days of the date the decision is filed with the Douglas Town Clerk. No variance or special permit issued by the ZBA shall take effect until it has been filed in the Worcester County Registry of Deeds with certification from the Town Clerk that 20 days have elapsed since the decision was filed with the Town Clerk and that no appeal has been filed or if such appeal has been filed, it has been dismissed or denied.

Mark:

You are not required to file and submit a new application. I spoke with the Town and the matter will be re-opened.

The re-opened hearing must be advertised, however, and abutters must be notified.
