administered to Ms. Jundi, and neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. Ea.rly, Mrs. Neitenback, Mr. Modenback, and Mr. Federko. Mrs. Jundi explained that she needed a 5 or 6 foot fence to keep her young children in the yard. Mr. Early explained that her side yard was his front yard and since his house sits back, it would not look right to have a fence in half of his yard. He stated that the fence in the front half could be lower if there was a concern about visibility. Mr. Maloney is concerned since, i:f the fence comes all the way down to the sidewalk, there would be danger to children, and he believed that there should be some setback. Chief Building Inspector Sanker stated that a fence in the front setback could only be 30 inches. Mr. Modenbock stated that he agreed that the fence should be tapered down to the front side walk. It was clarified that this fence would not be installed adjacent to an existing fence and further that the fence would be a 5 foot then taper down to 30 inches and then go down to the sidewalk. Mr. Sanker stated that the fence in the front would have to be 50% open. J. Maloney moved to approve the request for Nuha H. Jundi, 6198 Fitch Road, for a 35 foot front setback variance to place a fence in side yard of corner lot which is in the front setback of the adjacent lot with the condition that the fence be 5 feet high to the corner of the house and then from the corner of the house to the property line on Bellevue Drive (one foot inside the sidewalk) the fence will be reduced to 30 inches high to meet the City standards, seconded by B. Grace, and unanimously approved. It was clarified that the fence could taper down to 30 inches. Mrs. Jundi agreed to keep the fence 500 open. Variance granted. 5. Kevin Kilbane, 4134 Brendan Lane.

The oatli was administered to a neighbor, Ms. Krestel, and Mr. Kilbane who explained that he wanted a picket fence and it would be installed 2 feet off the sidewalk. Chief Building Inspector Sanker advised that a fence beyond the building line could only be 30 inches high and must be 50% open. It was elarified that the fence would have 2 inch slats saith 2-inch openings. The height of the fence was not stated in the agenda notice. Mrs. Krestel, who lives across the street on Cedarwood, objected to the fence because she would see it from her front door. She would prefer a chain link fence. Mr. Gomersall believed that the fence should be lower and not so close to the sidewalk. Mr. Grace had no problem since it was open and was low profile. B.
