The fencing <br />will be about three feet from the sidewalk since he has trees in the yard. <br />Mr. Limpert moved, seconded by Mr. Schumann, to grant a Certificate of Appropriateness <br />for a split rail fence for 20-16412; Anthony Sapienza at 25760 Butternut Ridge Road, which <br />was approved 8-0. <br />20-16508; North Olmsted Universalist Church; 5050 Porter Road <br />Representatives: Dan Beeman, Wagner Sign Company; Emily Williams, Church Board <br />President; Brian Warren, Church Board Vice President; James Kearney, Church Finance <br />Director <br />Ms. Lieber said the Commission must review the sign for appropriateness since the building is a <br />city landmark.
