The property is located in the B-1 Retail Sales Business District. • 3. The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on March l8, 1985 and recommended approval of the proposed variance based upon the following findings: . a) The canopy structure is high enough off the ground so that it will not create traffic visibility problems. • b) The canopy structure is to be placed over an existing gas pump island and if this structure was relocated so that canopy would meet the required setback, it would create � serious traffic flow problems for the service station operation. _ � ' , . � .
