• <br />• <br />• <br />MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br />MEETING HELD ON JUNE 16, 1997 <br />( #5 - #2244 William Wear - Continued) <br />Van Zomeren indicated that the hardship for the application is the highway right -of -way <br />that was taken from the front yard of the applicant's property. <br />Lindquist indicated that the Planning Commission would require further information on <br />lighting and signage. He asked how close the canopy is to the curb. Mr. Wear estimated <br />the distance to the sidewalk at 6' and 9.5' to the curb. Wear said the canopy would not <br />extend over the sidewalk. He indicated an alternative to the canopy design would be <br />angling the corners of the canopy to further the off -set 4' from the road side. Lindquist <br />believed that would be a good idea to lessen the encroachment. <br />Stoddard inquired where the support columns are located. Wear said the support columns <br />were 14' back. <br />Smith was informed that the canopy would be of a metal material. <br />Lindquist received confirmation from Wear that he understood the approval of the <br />variance would be subject to approval of plans, signage and lighting. <br />There were no public comments. <br />Stoddard moved, Smith seconded, to approve Application #2244 to install a canopy over <br />existing gas pump island subject to staff approval regarding height, signage, and lighting <br />plans, with corners to be angled to further off-set the canopy 4' from the roadside. The <br />approval is contingent on favorable consideration from NSP and Mn/DOT. The applicant <br />must remove the portable sign and reinstall the pylon sign in compliance with zoning code <br />requirements. Vote: Ayes 4, Nays 0. <br />Wear reported that he was currently in the process of removing the portable sign and <br />reinstalling the pylon sign. <br />(#6) #2245 BARBARA THEISEN AND CLAYTON F.
