# City of Auburn, Maine, Planning Board Meeting, November 10, 2026

The City of Auburn, Maine, Planning Board met on November 10, 2026. The board unanimously approved the site plan and special-exception application for a 28-bed, 24-hour addiction-treatment hospital at 220 Danville Corner Road, submitted by Platz Associates for Recovery Connections of Maine. Conditions require the applicant to provide the approved site plan to the city and Auburn Water and Sewer District, obtain applicable permits, and provide any required bonding or inspection fees before development begins. The board also approved findings of fact and conclusions of law. No contract award or municipal purchasing decision was identified.

The board approved, with conditions, a roughly 3,000-square-foot annex for The Dance Center LA LLC at 16 Western Avenue. Conditions include driver-facing parking signage and making the rear entrance the center’s primary entrance and exit, in response to public concerns about parking, traffic, and pedestrian safety. A motion was made to have the Parking and Traffic Safety Committee review the area and make recommendations; the transcript does not capture a final vote on that motion. The board also considered a proposed zoning-map amendment near Pownal Road. A motion to recommend against the change at this time was seconded, citing the pending comprehensive plan update; the transcript ends before the vote. No procurement activity was identified.
