Executive Summary: The owner is requesting a variance of 2 feet to allow a 10-foot-high fence on the eastern perimeter of their property.  Section 158.216(B) of the Zoning Code permits a maximum height of 8 feet for residential fences.

 

Presentation Information: Staff shall provide a presentation.

 

Staff Recommendation: That the Board consider the criteria listed under Section 158.295 (B) (1) through (7) of the Zoning Code and make an appropriate motion.

 

Background: There are several code violations due to the current fence installed at this location. There is 6-foot-high vinyl fence on the north, south, and west sides of the property. The fencing has 4-foot lattice added to the top of the vinyl fencing. The property owner has stated that the fencing and lattice on these three sides will be changed to meet current code requirements.

The fencing on the east perimeter consists of 6-foot wooden fence with 4-foot plywood added to the top of the fencing. The owner has stated that the plywood will be removed, and the remaining height of the fencing will be made with permitted material.

Also on the east perimeter in the front yard is a fence made of several different materials and covered in a black tarp material that must be removed.
