Property owners south of Pleasant Circle were busy <br />putting up fences right along Lexington. We asked the realtor selling the home if a fence <br />could go up to the road, and he said, "01, I'm sure you can." Our mistake was not <br />following up that question with proper authorities before we bought the house. The <br />answer would have changed our decision to buy the home. <br /> <br />Long story short: the Ramsey county commissioner said there was no way we could put a <br />fence up behind our property right by Lexington. <br /> <br />This is why we are requesting an 8-foot fence through the site plan review. The traffic on <br />Lexington is constant, and the filet that we are close to a.stoplight makes it feel like we <br />are really in a fishbowl. Having an 8-foot fence would at least allow us some privacy <br />while we're in our back yard. We believe this will not only help us to enjoy our house but <br />will help us in the future real estate value of our home. <br /> <br />Enclosed you'll see an example of the cedar fence we would like to install. Given Arden <br />Hills approval, we will likely do an 8-foot fence across the back and a 6-foot fence along <br />the sides by our neighbors. <br /> <br />Thank you for your consideratiolL <br /> <br /> <br />~~.~~ <br /> <br />. er and Rob Scott <br />
