13 646 Tony Blake: Sorry. 647 648 Michael Harvey: No, no, you’re fine. These are the kind of questions we need because if you can’t see it then… The next is 649 medical uses. Kim, you and Tony both asked this question about health services. Doctor’s office, dentist’s office. This is health 650 services. The reason we kept it separate is because it’s already in that land use category and much of the same way we’re 651 going to handle restaurants it’s going to be based on square footage because that’s the current standard. We don’t want to ge t 652 into a level of minutia with dentists can only go here or there, it’s a medical use. So the definition says here’s the list and it’s 653 going to be based on square footages. So in certain districts we might allow a medical doctors office but it may be no more 654 than 10,000 square feet or 15,000 square feet where in other districts the only limit is the practical development limitations, 655 i.e., setbacks, parking, impervious surface, whatnot. 656 657 Lydia Wegman: So the UDO will say what is permitted? 658 659 Michael Harvey: Yeah. 660 661 Lydia Wegman: In each district? 662 663 Michael Harvey: Yeah, that’s going to be in article 5. 664 665 Tony Blake: So more and more I’m seeing medical facilities combined with the pharmacy and a lab. Is there some? I see a lot 666 of things in here that might be pulled into one facility and so then the dots start to make a difference if one is permitted in one 667 and … 668 669 Michael Harvey: Well the principal use as a pharmacy is an example. And they have a small laboratory. I would consider that 670 a customary accessory use to the pharmacy, whereas you could have, and this goes to this existing land use category. 671 Medical and diagnostic laboratory with or without research facilities, this is something where it’s not a pharmacy, it is a lab, 672 and we don’t want to distinguish between research and non-research. It’s a medical or diagnostic laboratory. We’re going to 673 list that as a permitted use. It could or could not have a research facility. That is that persons call. 674 675 Craig Benedict: What you’re saying is correct, how they’re starting to co-mingle uses. We worked on that office research 676 manufacturing… Because it used to be the warehouse used to be there, the manufacture… Inaudible. 677 678 Lydia Wegman: So Michael, pharmacy is part of health services? 679 680 Michael Harvey: Well pharmacy actually would come under… It could come under health services if it’s like a Walgreens it 681 would come under retail. 682 683 Tony Blake: Right. And so that’s where. 684 685 Lydia Wegman: And what about a compounding pharmacy? 686 687 Michael Harvey: That would come under health services. 688 689 Tony Blake: That’s where it gets a little sticky. 690 691 Lydia Wegman: Right. Because there are places that are just pharmacies. 692 693 Tony Blake: Right. And it’s the same thing with the dentist. Some of them have on-site manufacturing of bridges and crowns, 694 and some don’t, some send it out, and some are stand-alone. 695 696 Randy Marshall: How about the eye doctor? 697 698 Michael Harvey: Same thing. 699
