I am the chairman of the planning board for the Town of Millis MA. and I own a residence at #300 Riverview lane and I would like to express my concerns about the use of this location (715 West main street) as a drive through establishment. I see in your decision that there should be a traffic study done in this location and want to encourage that this study should be done when school is in session. While I understand the Towns desire to have this location occupied it is My opinion that the traffic which becomes backed up when school is released & during sporting events the road will become gridlocked with the proposed Wendy's restaurant. I also would ask the following questions: Does this meet the requirement for handicapped parking? There was a shortfall of required spaces required for onsite parking - if there is a waiver granted where will these cars park ? Typically the restaurant is supplied by a Tractor trailer - How is this going to happen in such a tight site? Do the parking spots meet the town requirement for length - or will this be a requested waiver? Will there be restrictions on Hours of trash pickup and when the menu board is open as there are residences nearby? When the line exceeds 11-12 cars the traffic will que on Pine street - effectively blocking a moderately busy street. Unfortunately I am unable to attend the meeting but respectfully ask that my points be added to the site plan review and even possibly discussed at your meeting.
