will be injured by the decision.
Section 29.20.275 The notice of appeal shall state specifically wherein it is claimed there was an error or abuse of discretion by the
Commission or wherein its decision is not supported by substantial evidence in the record.
1. There was an error or abuse of discretion by the Planning Commission:
Discrimination - Antisemitism argument was not addressed by anyone at all.
Bias - (because appelant is a doctor) to the extreme undue financial hardship reconstructing the fence would create.
thousands of other fence violations. including on the same street, were said to be not in violation (despite photos)
proof of the ordinance available on the website in 2020 - they simply said it seems unlikely, "other into also existed somewhere."
:OR
2. The Planning Commission's decision is not supported by substantial evidence in the record:
Crime statistics - large number of registered sex offenders in the area. (We have a baby girl).
Townspeople who called in were in support of the fence 6 to 1.
Letters of people who wrote in were in support of the fence 7 to 1.
High traffic commercial area = reason for exception. Unique location is an exception.
