The
Planning Board tonight will continue its review of the multi-dumpster
structure being proposed for the parking lot next to the former
Maplewood Village post office project.
The board has spent the past two meetings reviewing the request from JMF Properties, which is building the three-story, 20-apartment,
five-shop structure on the site. It will include a 120-seat restaurant
to be run by Maplewood residents Tom and Jennifer Carlin who operate a similar eatery in Gladstone.
JMF
has requested that the dumpster space be added for the restaurant to the site plan, which
currently does not allow it. Initially, it was thought to be an enclosed
structure to house one dumpster.
But
at a Maplewood Village Alliance (MVA) meeting in November it was
revealed the structure would house nine dumpsters, with two or three of
them for existing businesses Village Coffee and Mt. Fuji whose dumpsters
are currently behind their buildings and not enclosed.
The dumpsters would be housed in a structure that
would take up at least two existing parking spaces in the Village Coffee
lot near the pedestrian tunnel to Memorial Park.
The structure would be eight feet high, 25 feet wide and 18 feet deep.
Tonight's meeting is set for 8 p.m. at Town Hall. See the full agenda HERE.
