Plan Evaluation <br />Chapter 13, Zoning Code Review <br />1. 1325.05 — Design Standards, Subd. 4 — Screening, Section D — Fence Regulations <br />o No above grade fence shall have barbs or spikes or be of metal construction, which is <br />charged or connected with electrical current within any district of the City. These <br />fencing types shall only be permitted through a Conditional Use Permit. <br />The Applicant is proposing a perimeter fence that includes barbs and spikes for security purposes <br />at the Subject Property. The proposed fencing includes a 6-foot tall decorative metal fencing with <br />spikes along Paul Kirkwold Drive (8001f) and a 6-foot tall vinyl coated chain link fence with three <br />strand barbed wire along Highway 96 W. (1,1101f). Planning staff did confirm the proposed fence <br />height will be 6-feet even though the Civil Plan Sheet C2.11 references 10-feet. The Sheriff's <br />Department is proposing barbed wire fencing in another contract city and is seeking a taller height <br />at that building. <br />The decorative metal fencing with spikes would include two gates, one across Paul Kirkwold <br />Drive, approximately 200 feet in from Hamline Avenue and another across the entrance to the main <br />entrance of the building. The decorative metal fencing with spikes would connect to existing <br />fencing on the east side of the Subject Property and the vinyl coated chain link fence with barbed <br />wire would connect to existing barbed wire chain link fencing on the southwest corner of the <br />Subject Property. The existing barbed wire chain link fence is on the federal government property <br />which is exempt from local zoning and other regulations. <br />Decorative Metal Fence with Spikes <br />KEY <br />moon <br />DECORATIVE <br />METAL <br />CHAIN LINKW? <br />BARBEDWIRE <br />r -- EXISTING FENC <br />Chain Link Fence with Barbed Wire <br />H WY 96 W <br />VEHICLE GATE <br />................ .#I r.r• <br />Page 3 of 7 <br />
