Property is zoned B -One Family Residence. <br />The following variance is requested: <br />1. A 5 ft. variance (approximate) for setback of a fence constructed on a corner lot in the side and rear <br />yards abutting a side street (Wood Path Drive); code requires 20 ft.; applicant shows approximately <br />15 ft.; Section 1135.02(D)(3). <br />Ms. Lieber stated that the applicant proposes to install a 6 -foot vinyl fence in the side yard of his corner <br />lot. A 20 -foot setback for a fence of this height is required, the applicant shows a setback of <br />approximately 15 feet at the closest point to the ROW. Mr. Wood updated the previous proposal based on <br />feedback from the May 4, 2020 meeting so that the fence would be in line with his rear neighbor's fence. <br />Ms. Lieber said a portion of fence is proposed in a drainage easement and the city engineer has requested <br />a gate be installed at the northwest corner of the property, which has been included. Mr. Rahm liked that <br />the fence was in line with the neighbor's fence. Ms. Patton agreed and thought the new location would <br />look better, Mr. Mackey agreed. Mr. Papotto suggested that another gate may be helpful on the other end <br />of the property since the drainage easement runs through backyards in that area. <br />Mr. Papotto moved, seconded by Mr. Mackey, to approve the following variance for 20-16344; <br />Jason Wood; 5590 Pheasants Walk Drive: <br />1.
