E. ANALYSIS: The subject property is located within the C-2 General Commercial zoning

Planning Board · 2026-06-10 · agenda_item

A drive-thru coffee shop is proposed for a 20,919 square-foot property located at Woodland Blvd and Cliff St. The property is currently zoned C-2 General Commercial. The applicant is requesting a variance to reduce the required width of landscape buffers along Woodland Blvd from 30 feet to 19 feet, and along Cliff St from 30 feet to 14 feet. A full 20-foot landscape buffer with a fence will still be provided along the single-family residence to the west. This item is currently under review by the Planning Board. The project would involve site clearing and grading, underground utility work, paving for drive-thru lanes and parking, building construction, and final landscaping. Contractors specializing in site preparation, concrete, paving, building trades, and landscaping could find opportunities as this project moves through the review process. Early engagement before final site plans and permits are issued may offer a competitive advantage.
