Request
A request for 2 foot variance from the maximum 6 foot maximum rear yard fencing, as described in Section 35-314(d), to allow an 8 foot fence in the rear yard.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located at 13820 Landmark Hill in the Northern Hills Neighborhood. This is a residential neighborhood with modest size homes and winding suburban streets. The residential neighborhood was built over a largely sloping and hilly topography. The owner of the subject property has a pool in the rear yard and wishes to ensure privacy of his home and rear yard. As explained in the application and witnessed by staff, the home in the rear of the subject property sits a higher elevation than the subject property. The applicant has requested a variance to allow additional fence height. The requested height increase is strictly for the most rear portion of the rear yard and is unlikely to be seen from the public right of way.
