The applicant is requesting approval to legalize a fence that has been constructed in the County's
required setback on property prezoned R-1:8. The Town does not have fence setback requirements for
this zone. However, the site is a corner lot and the Town does have sight distance setback requirements
which the fence does not meet. If a County engineer determines that there is not a sight distance
problem, the existing location could be approved. In addition, the County apparently allows higher
fences than the Town. The applicant is proposing to reduce the height of the existing fence to seven
feet with a 1.5 lattice strip for a total height of 8.5 feet. The maximum fence height permitted by the
Town is six feet. Therefore, the Town should forward a recommendation for approval subject to the
following conditions:
