Permitted Uses (By Right / Site Plan) If you build one of the following, the project generally requires a standard Site Plan Approval from the Planning & Zoning Commission to ensure parking, setbacks, and drainage are up to code: • Retail Businesses: Commercial stores, boutiques, supermarkets, or specialty shops (similar to nearby retail hubs like Tollgate Plaza). • Professional Offices: Medical practices, corporate offices, banks, real estate agencies, or legal suites. • Personal Services: Salons, dry cleaners, tailors, or fitness studios. • Veterinary & Pet Care: Animal grooming or indoor pet daycare facilities. [1, 2, 3, 4] Uses Requiring a Special Exception Permit Certain businesses are allowed at this address but must undergo a Special Exception Review (including a public hearing) due to their higher impact on Route 25 traffic or town resources: • Restaurants & Food Service: Traditional sit-down dining, bars, cafés, or fast-food locations featuring drive-thru lanes. • Automotive Services: Repair garages or car washes (strictly subject to Monroe’s limitations on outdoor vehicle storage). • Mixed-Use Buildings: A newer zoning amendment allows you to build commercial spaces on the ground floor with residential rental apartments directly above them, which is highly applicable to this segment of Main Street.
