Dear Mr. Long: A public hearing was held by the Board of Appeals on May 8, 1978 upon application of Haffner Realty Trust who requested a variation of Sec. 6.3 and Table 2 of the Zoning By—Law so as to permit the construction of a canopy over gasoline pump islands as shown on a plan dated October 18, 1977 on the premises located at the west side of Chickering Rd. and known as 564 Chickering Rd. The following members were present and voting: Frank Serio, Jr., Chairman; Alfred E. Frizelle, Vice— Chairman; Louis DiFruscio, Clerk; James D. Noble, Jr.; and Assoc. Member Richard J. Trepanier. The hearing was advertised in the Lawrence Eagle Tribune on April 22 & 29, 1978 and all abutters were duly notified by regular mail. The petitioner, represented by Atty. James F. Waldron, has petitioned the Board seeking a variance from the provisions of Sec. 6.3 and table 2 of the By—Law to enable the construction of a canopy over the gasoline pump islands on premises located on Chickering Rd. The petitioner presented evidence showing that the unusual shape of the parcel of land created a hardship in that it prevented the petitioner from constructing a canopy in any other fashion. The petitioner also showed that the design and con— struction of the canopywill not derogate from the intent or purpose of the By-Law g P p y nor derogate from the zoning district. Upon motion made by Mr. Frizelle and seconded by Mr. DiFruscio the Board unanimously voted to GRANT the variance for a canopy to be constructed 14 ft. from the lot line with the following conditions: 1) that all lights shall be placed underneath the canopy directed downward; 2) that a non—lighted sign is allowed on the outside of the canopy provided that such sign meets the requirements of the North Andover Sign By—Law; • 4 V Haffner Realty Trust Decision -2- 3) the construction shall conform to the drawing "Proposed Canopies, Chickering Rd., No. Andover, Ma., owner: 'Haffner Service Stations, Inc." dated 10-28-77, revised 4-12 & 4-18-78; 4) construction shall be completed by Dec. 31, 1978 otherwise this variance shall be null and void; 5) that the animated standing sign closest to Rte. 125 shall be eliminated; 6) a complete plan of the canopy must be submitted to the Board for approval prior to the issuance of a building permit; 7) no signs shall be allowed''on top of the roof of the canopy.
