Planning board clears Main Street Urgent Care at 532 North Tindle Parkway despite parking concerns
Summary
The Callaway Planning Board approved a development order Sept. 2 for a detached Main Street Urgent Care at 532 North Tindle Parkway. Board discussion focused on parking, shared access and setbacks; the motion passed on a roll-call vote with one no vote.
The Callaway Planning Board on Sept. 2 approved a development order for a detached Main Street Urgent Care at 532 North Tindle Parkway after staff and the engineer of record presented the site plan and parking layout.
Chairman Hagen introduced the item and identified Scott Ruffford as the engineer of record for the property owner. Presenters displayed a demo and site plan showing a separate medical building between San Marcos Mexican Restaurant and Slim Chickens, with a shared cross-parcel access drive. The plan reduces some parking spaces adjacent to San Marcos but staff said minimum parking requirements are met and additional overflow parking exists on the rear parcel.
Board members asked about building setbacks, landscaping in the overlay district, and whether the new facility would offer appointments and walk-in urgent care. Presenters said the layout meets building setbacks, includes required landscaping along Tindle Parkway, and shows several exam rooms with a lab that could support appointments and walk-ins. A presenter noted the retention area on site is typically dry outside of rain events.
One board member raised concerns about losing parking that previously served the restaurant; staff responded that the overlay district encourages shared parking to accommodate concurrent uses. After discussion and no public comments, the board voted; recorded votes show one member opposed and the motion carried.
The approval allows the applicant to proceed to permitting for building-level plans and inspections.
