<br />
<br />1. Roll Call
<br />
<br />The meeting was called to order at 6:30 p.m.
<br />
<br />II. APPEARANCES
<br />
<br />1. Ms. Norma Essex -7333 Old Mill Road (Fence Ordinance)
<br />
<br />Ms. Essex stated that she would like the fencing ordinance to be reviewed, not only for
<br />her benefit but for the benefit of others. She stated that the current fence ordinance states
<br />that fencing needs to have a two-foot setback, which means you would lose two feet of
<br />your yard. She stated that, in her case, this would mean her underground sprinkler
<br />system would be on the opposite side of the fence. She stated that she would like to
<br />install a split rail fence directly on the property line, without permission from the
<br />neighbor due to reoccurring difficulties with that same neighbor. Ms. Essex stated that
<br />she does not understand the need for the two foot setback because there is no ordinance
<br />for setback distances on trees or brush plants. She stated that if she cannot install a fence
<br />on her property line, she would like to put in a hedge.
<br />
<br />Chair Hanson stated that the reason for the two foot setback is to allow for maintenance
<br />on both sides of the fence and still remain on your own property. He stated that there are
<br />allowable reasons for a zero lot line in some cases; however, a property survey will need
