Request
A request for 1) a 4' variance from the 5' side setback requirement, as described in Section 35-371(a), to allow for a carport to be 1' away from the side property line, 2) a special exception, as described in Section 35-514, to allow a privacy fence to be up to 8' tall on the west and rear property line, and 3) a variance from the restriction of corrugated metal as a fencing material, as described in Section 35-514, to allow for the use of fencing.
Executive Summary
The applicant wishes to keep an 8' tall fence constructed of corrugated metal located on all sides of the property and carport that is located 1' from the side property lines. The applicant states that she has a need for increased security and privacy which warrants the additional fence height and material. The applicant built the fence without first obtaining a permit for the carport or the fence. Had the applicant applied for a permit, we would have informed the owner that you cannot build a fence at that height, use corrugated metal, or construct a carport 1' from the side property line.
Code Enforcement History
No Code Enforcement history exists on the property.
Permit History
The applicant is waiting for variances to be approved to obtain a fence and carport permit.
