Request
A request for a two foot variance from the six foot maximum rear yard fence height, as described in Section 35-514 (d) to allow an eight foot tall wood fence in the rear yard of the property.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located within the Voelcker Ranch Planned Unit Development Subdivision, a gated subdivision with private streets recorded in 1994. The lots are over a half acre with houses built in the mid to late 1990s. The applicant purchased his house in 2010, before Phil Hardberger Park was fully developed. The improvements in the park behind his house have changed his perceived enjoyment of his property. Specifically, the area behind his rear fence is being used to store the trucks and maintenance equipment used within the park. The applicant installed an eight foot tall cedar fence along the shared property line as a way of reducing the negative impact of these park activities. A two foot variance from the maximum 6 foot fence height is required to maintain this fence height.
