A request for 1) a special exception to allow an eight foot fence in the front and side yard, as described in Section 35-514(c)(1) and 2) a request for a 30 foot variance from the 30 foot platted front setback to allow a carport on the front property line, as described in Section 35-516(o).
Executive Summary
The subject property is currently located in Valencia Unit-2 subdivision, established in 1972. The applicant is requesting a special exception to construct an eight foot fence along the side and in portions of the front yard. The requested fence height is due to the family dog that can easily jump a six foot fence. The applicant is also requesting a variance from the 30 foot platted setback to construct a carport that extends to the front property line. The applicant is requesting the carport to protect the owners' vehicles from damage from severe weather and to prevent slipping.
