Mrs. Coe <br />advised tliat there would be a 48" gate installed to ensure the area could be properly maintained. <br />Board members had no objections as the area included utility boxes and a 10 foot drainage swell. <br />Building Coinmissioner Conway advised that fences are not allowed in drainage swells/ditches <br />and it is his intent to address the matter when the zoning code is being updated. Therefore the <br />owner can not legally install a fence at his property line. The fence must be installed outside the <br />swell therefore it is reasonable in circumstances such as this to have a fence on either side of a <br />drairiage swell/ditch. <br />Mr. Althen moved, seconded by Mr. Lipcsey, to approve Dave & Debbie Coe of 6257 <br />Somerset Oval their request which consists of erecting a 4' high fence and the following <br />variance is granted: 1.
