Request
A request for 1) a special exception, as described in Section 35-514, to allow a privacy fence gate to be 8' tall on the front yard of the property line, and 2) a variance from the restriction of metal sheeting as a fencing material, as described in Section 35-514, to allow for its use as fencing.
Executive Summary
The applicant would like permission to keep an automatic metal entry gate, the stone fencing surrounding the gate at 8', and a 7' stucco fence surrounding the stone fencing. The total width of fencing along the front property line will be 56'. The applicant would like permission to construct an 8' fence to provide more privacy and security to the home. Further, the proposed fence height is not out of character with surrounding homes as multiple homes in this community have 8' fences.
