![]() ![]() Plans for the redevelopment of the Outlets at Kittery at 283 Route 1 including a 120-room hotel, a 100-unit apartment building and a 10,000-square-foot retail and restaurant building. The building itself is set back roughly 60 feet. “This is the first blush of trying to change the constitution of Route 1 - moving buildings up closer to the road so there will be a more urban look,” said board vice chairperson Karen Kalmar.Īccording to Hansen, the hotel entrance overhang, as proposed, is set back 41 feet from the lot line. Hansen explained the proposed hotel is further back from the roadway because of emergency vehicle access, putting the front entrance and hotel pickup lane near the front of the building, and attempting to limit the impact of street noise. The hotel building is proposed to be set back greater than 15 feet the lot line.

Kittery’s zoning ordinance mandates that front-facing buildings proposed in the town's C-1 zone can only be set back 15 feet from the lot line. “The current thought with phasing is that the hotel would be the first to be built … the apartment building would then be the second building to be built, with the retail space finishing the site," Hansen told the board. Neil Hansen of Tighe & Bond, a Portsmouth engineering consulting company, represented Plummer, who attended the meeting.
