Mr. Quentzel asked Mr. Lorio if they could have one drive-thru lane with two windows; Mr. Lorio said no because the pharmacist only has access to one part of the store. He said that there could not be two windows at the pharmacy wall. Mr. Williams asked Mr. Lorio to explain how and when deliveries are made to the store. Mr. Lorio said that the tractor trailer makes a delivery once a week and it is there approximately twenty (20) minutes. He said that they have other smaller deliveries and they are made through the front door. Mr. Lorio said that the compactor gets picked-up once every ten days as needed and the pickup is less than five (5) minutes. He said that with all of the deliveries their main goal is that the customer is safe. Mr. Buechler asked Mr. Lorio how often the other delivery trucks come; Mr. Lorio said it is on an as needed basis. Mr. Buechler asked Mr. Lorio where these delivery trucks park; Mr. Lorio said if it is a van truck then they can park in a parking spot. He said the larger trucks go to the loading zone in the back of the store. Mr. Buechler asked Mr. Lorio about the status of the other CVS store on Eagle Rock Avenue. Mr. Lorio stated that they have obligations under the lease for that store and it is to be determined. Chairman Neuer said that this Board is concerned with two CVS stores within one mile of each other. Mr. Lorio said that the lease for that store runs out in 2017 or 2018. Chairman Neuer asked if there was any covenant regarding operating another CVS store within a certain mileage of each other; Mr. Lorio said no. Mr. Buechler asked Mr. Lorio if CVS will agree to the condition to restrict the hours of their deliveries and the locations where delivery trucks can park and only use the ioading zone. Mr. Lorio said that would be difficult to control but he said the store manager can enforce that. Mr. Buechler said that he will recommend that all deliveries must come in through the back as a condition. Chairman Neuer asked Mr. Lorio how the stores control bringing the shopping carts back into the store from the parking lot; Mr. Lorio said that their shopping carts have long poles on them so they cannot be taken out of the store. Chairman Neuer said that the CVS store on Eagle Rock Avenue does not have the long poles on the shopping carts. He said that he passes by that store almost every day, visits that store
