A request for 1) a special exception, as described in Section 35-514, to allow an 8' tall solid screen fence along the side property lines and 2) a request for a variance from the Clear Vision standards, as described in Section 35-514, to allow a fence within the Clear Vision field.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located at 2922 Albin Drive, approximately 280 feet east of Seidel Road. The applicant is seeking a special exception to allow a fence to be as tall as 8 feet along the side property lines. The subject property has had similar fence height since 1983 on both sides of the subject property. During field visits, the staff noted that the fence is in violation of the Clear Vision field and there is one nearby property with similar fencing height. The fence Clear Vision Area must be free of obstruction for the first 15 feet; the applicant's fence is 9 feet away from the street curb. It was also noted a fence on the opposite side from the subject property, for which a replace fence permit was issued in September 2017 but built at approximately 8', over the height limitations.
