VAR. re: fence height variance application, 1233 Karth Lake <br /> 1233 KARTH LK. DR. Drive. <br /> Planner Miller reviewed the request and recommended approval based on the fact . <br /> the slope of the land renders a six-foot fence of limited value for screening <br /> views of Hwy. 96 and an eight-foot fence would have little or no negative <br /> impact on the adjacent property. <br /> Miller referred Council to Board of Appeals minutes (3-26-87) and Planning <br /> Commission minutes (4-1-87); both recommending approval of the requested <br /> variance. <br /> Peck questioned if the variance request was for only the existing fence; if the <br /> fence were extended would it meet the Zoning Code requirements. <br /> Miller noted that the applicant had stated he may extend the fence, however, <br /> because the extension would abutt residential property six feet would be <br /> sufficient height. <br /> Moved by Sather, seconded by Winiecki, that Council <br /> approve Case No. 87-06, granting a 2 ft. variance in height of the fence at <br /> 1233 Karth Lake Drive.
