4.0 REVIEW of REQUEST: 4.1 Charles Anderson has submitted a proposal to extend two existing fence types north, south, and southeast of his home (4- board and wire) to 9 feet in height, of which, 57 feet (4- board type) will be of new construction located south of the home. Roughly 777 feet of existing 4- board and 3/4 inch T-post wire fence is located on the property. The purpose ofthe fence is to exclude deer from the yard and maintain landscaping aesthetics (see attached picture). 4.2 The property has a zoning designation ofR-l (Single-Family Residential District) and a Comprehensive Land Use ofLR (Low Density Residential). 4.3 Fencing will be constructed using two methods. The first will use 9 feet in height sections of% inch galvanized pipe posts, with a % inch electrical conduit top rail and a % inch galvanized bottom rail. Fence fabric consisting of concrete reinforcing 6 inch by 6 inch heavy gauged wire mesh will be stretched from the top of the rail to the base rail (galvanized). Metal piping is much less visible than wood or vinyl fencing (much smaller than wood/vinyl). The second, will use already existing 5 foot tall 4- board fencing to extend to 9 feet in height and use fence fabric that consists of concrete reinforcing 6 inch by 6 inch heavy gauged wire mesh which will stretch from the top ofthe 9 foot galvanized rail to the top of the 5 foot ta1l4-board existing fence (see attached photo). 5.0 STAFF COMMENTS/FINDINGS: 5.1 In accordance with Section 1012. 02C1 (Location) where fencing meets adjacent (north south) property lines, said fencing will be located in such a way that the entire fence shall be on the property of the builder thereof. Posts and framework shall be placed within the property lines of the owner and the actual fencing material such as wire, lumber, pickets, etc., shall be placed on the side of the fence which faces the street or the adjacent property. 5.2 The proposed plan is to extend from the existing 5 foot fence to 9 feet in height. The code allows 6 feet 6 inches, therefore this proposal requires a two foot six inch variance to Section l012.02B3 (Side or Rear Yard Only). 5.3 The Section 1012.02B&C of the Roseville City Code states: Fences or walls not to exceed a height of six and one-halffeet (6-1/2') above the grade except that in B (Business) or I (Industrial) Districts.
