14 Wednesday, August 21, 2019 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon Sisters Folk Festival seeks volunteers PHOTO PROVIDED The proposed site of a new Dollar General store in Sisters. STORE: Decision could go to planning commission Continued from page 1 and a host of other allowed uses. Dollar General qualifies as an allowed use. According to Community Development Director Patrick Davenport, City zon- ing regulations are spelled out in the City9s Development Code, and proposed projects must meet City requirements for lighting, maneuverability, parking, landscaping, sig- nage, lot coverage, and other considerations. The City planners are charged with reviewing site-plan applica- tions to see they meet City requirements but they are, by law, not allowed to decide if a proposed business is needed, wanted, or likely to be suc- cessful. They must make their decisions based on the estab- lished criteria. The decision regarding Dollar General is a Type II decision, which means it could be called up to the Planning Commission for review. Davenport said they should soon receive a Master Plan application for develop- ment of the remainder of the property to the east, behind BiMart, fronting on West Hood Avenue, which will include several more com- mercial pads and some apart- ments. That property adjoins the 13 acres along Highway 242 that is currently listed for sale. The 13 acres are zoned multi-family, which means it could be developed to include single-family homes, town- houses, and apartments. The Sisters Folk Festival (SFF) is quickly approach- ing, and excitement is build- ing as festival preparation is in full swing. SFF is in search of folks who can com- mit to 10 hours of volunteer- ing throughout the festival weekend (September 6-8). In return, volunteers are given a wristband to enjoy the music at all 11 venues. Many of the festival volun- teer jobs are near or inside a venue, so catching your new favorite musician or band can be easy to do. The festival is seeking evening volunteers at several venues to monitor the door, run bike valet, tend bar and sell merchandise.
