Laconia Board OKs Pharmacy, Health Club

“With marked praise for both proposals, the Laconia Planning Board on Tuesday approved construction of a CVS pharmacy near Busy Corner and conversion of much of the former Laconia Mall into a Work Out World health club. The Work Out World also received unanimous approval but with even less public comment — none, to be specific — than the CVS. Presented by Steve Borghi, who lives in Alton and co-owns a number of WOW clubs in the Northeast, including one in Nashua, the plan calls for renovating four spaces in the Downtown Mall — now known as Downtown Crossing — and a fifth space in the basement most recently occupied by the Funky Monkey lounge. The 23,000-square-foot space would include an aerobics studio, cardiovascular area, strength equipment, baby sitting area, men's and women's locker rooms, steam room, sauna and a tanning salon. While they did not have any issues with the WOW proposal per se, several planning board members, including Kyril Mitchell, said the City Council should look at whether there are any potential restrictions in who can park in the mall garage after the WOW club is built. Mitchell said that, when he lived in the downtown, he and his fellow vehicle owners had to park their cars in the mall garage to not run afoul of the city's ban on overnight parking from November into April. While she did not have details, City Planner Shanna Saunders said it was her understanding that Borghi and WOW owned about three-quarters of all the parking spaces in the garage and the city owned the rest. Borghi told the board he had no plans to restrict the parking for the club only.”
