not be used to advertise services to products sold on the premises."

4. Section 16.34.020 (TMC) states "The Planning Commission r.ay grant
a variance from the provisions of this title based on findings that
due to practical difficulties, undue hardships or inconsistencies
with the objectives of Title 16, the strict or literal interpretation and
enforcement of a specific requirement hereunder should be waived or
modified."
In this case the Planning Commission must find that practical difficulties.
hardships or ordinance inconsistencies occur with respect to the following:
° Setback requirements.
° Allowed advertising description.
Support by an "A-frame" structure.
5. The applicant has submitted the attached letter and sign drawing.

Denial of the applicants request based the finding that no prlctical
