Fence (5ft Wood)  
Submitted by Adam Herr  
a) Section III-1(f) of the Design Standards state that except in District 8, only  
the following fence materials shall be allowed: wood (or vinyl closely  
resembling wood), wrought iron (or aluminum closely resembling wrought  
iron), stone, or brick. All other fence materials, including chain link and  
vinyl-clad chain link, are prohibited. Based on such, staff notes metal mesh  
is not a permitted material.  
b) Section III-1(f)(3) of the Design Standards states “fence heights and  
materials shall be compatible with their site location and surrounding  
development”. Staff notes an adjacent split rail fence. Suggest removing  
the wire mesh from the 5ft wooden fence proposal.
