Executive Summary
The subject property is located at 1127 and 1143 East Bitters Road, approximately 2,180' east of U.S. Highway 281. The applicant is proposing to construct a 6' brick fence along the front yard, 30' away from the curb and running parallel to East Bitters Road through both lots 1127 and 1143. Bitters road is a high-volume four lane arterial road, and during field visits, staff noted the consistent flow of high speed traffic stemming from U.S. Highway 281.
Along Bitters Road, there are several residential properties in the immediate vicinity that make use of solid screen fences to reduce visual and audible noise from the increased traffic flow the thoroughfare has experienced.
