The Planning Board considered this item in a noticed public hearing on December 9, 2025. The meeting was conducted in the Council Chambers at City Hall and on Zoom. Members in attendance in the Chambers were Chair Reese Perkins, Vice Chair Jonathan Boucher and Members Trish Hayes, Mike Bazinet, Ted Brush, Ken Huhn, and Janet Jonas, as well as Associate Member Justin Cartier. The applicant, David Wade, reviewed the application and described the purpose as being to operate an urgent care clinic on the site. Wade reviewed how this change would align with the 2022 Comprehensive Plan and benefit the community. From the staff inemo: A. This is an application to remove the contract conditions on the zoning at 557 Hammond Street. The contract is included in your packets and restricts the use of this property to financial institutions, business or professional offices, retail or service businesses with limited outdoor display areas; limits the square footage of any building on the premises to 3,000 square feet; and limits the hours of operation to 6 am-1 am. B. The land uses around the property consist primarily of a mix of commercial and residential and the zoning around the property consists primarily of Urban Service District (USD), Neighborhood Service District (NSD), and Urban Residence 1 District (URD-1). C. The 2022 Comprehensive Plan and the future land use map in the Plan shows this property in the Urban Neighborhood area which consists of "medium to high-density residential neighborhoods surrounding the Downtown and encompassing most of the historic residential areas. Includes limited commercial and institutional uses that are complementary to the surrounding residential uses". Staff recommend that the Planning Board find this change to be in alignment with the Comprehensive Plan. 73 HARLOW STREET,BANGOR,ME 04401 TELEPHONE: (207)992-4280 FAX: (207) 945-4447 WWW.BANGORMAINE.GOV CITY OF BANGOR PLANNING DIVISION PLANNING BOARD RECOMMENDATION TO CITY COUNCIL 12.9.2025 557 Haimnond Street-Map-Lot 013-077 Member Bazinet asked the applicant where overflow parking would be located. Wade responded that they did not expect surges of customers since they would be scheduling appointments. He stated they anticipated about 21 patients per day, but they would not likely all show up at the same time. He stated that they did not expect to use all of the parking that's there currently. Vice Chair Boucher asked what the proposed hours would be. Wade stated they would be 8 am to 8 pm, 7 days a week. Member Huhn asked what type of staff they would employ. Wade listed a number of different medical staff positions. Associate member Cartier asked if there were plans to go to 24 hours a day at some point. Wade stated there were not and that a 24-hour model is somewhat rare. There were no comments from the public. Vice Chair Boucher moved to recommend to City Council that the proposed amendment ought to pass. Member Brush seconded the motion. The motion passed 7:0 with all regular members voting in favor. Chair Perkins commented that he felt this would fit a neighborhood need and that he did not anticipate it being a problem for the neighborhood. The result of the vote is that a majority of Planning Board members voted to recommend that the proposed amendment ought to pass.
