Summary

At the Jan. 13 meeting, the Danvers Planning Board voted to continue the site plan review for Raising Cane's at 200 Endicott to Jan. 27 so staff and the applicant can complete a traffic review and finalize draft conditions.

The Danvers Planning Board voted Jan. 13 to continue the site plan review for a proposed Raising Cane's standalone restaurant with a drive-through at 200 Endicott Street to its Jan. 27 meeting.

Attorney Nancy McCann, representing Raising Cane's Restaurants LLC, told the board the team is finalizing a traffic review and draft conditions and expects to complete that work in time for the next meeting. "So we think we can wrap that up in time for the next meeting, which would be January 27," McCann said.

Chair Louis George opened the public hearing and called for the continuance after McCann's explanation. The motion to continue was made by Michael Decoulis and seconded by Jim Sears; Jean Hartnett, Decoulis, Sears and Chair George voted in favor by roll call.

Why it matters: the property is in Danvers' Commercial-3 (C-3) zoning district and the project includes a drive-through, a feature the board and staff typically review closely for traffic and pedestrian impacts. The continuance preserves the board's ability to review finalized traffic analysis and attach conditions before any vote on site plan approval.

Next steps: the application will be taken up again at the Planning Board's Jan. 27 meeting, when staff and the applicant will present any completed traffic review and proposed conditions.
