Request
A request for 1) a special exception, as described in Section 35-514, to allow an 8' tall solid screen fence along east side and rear property line, and 2) a request for a variance from the Clear Vision standards to allow a fence to be within the Clear Vision field.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located at 2910 Albin Drive, approximately 180 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 east side property line meeting the 15 foot Clear Vision area. The applicant originally requested a variance to locate a portion of the fence within the Clear Vision filed, but has since modified their request and is no longer pursuing a variance from the Clear Vision standards.
The subject property has had a similar fence height in the past, but is seeking to add a new fence. On July 16th, 2018 the Board approved an 8 foot tall solid screen fence along both side property lines for the adjacent property, located at 2922 Albin Drive. During field visits, staff noted that the neighbor's fence is still under construction. Staff further noted a fence opposite from the subject property, for which a replace fence permit was issued in September 2017, is built at approximately 8', also over the height limitations.
