Uh, the plan commission recommends approval of an ordinance 301 00:23:07,360 --> 00:23:14,480 granting a variation for a fence height for property at 4285 North Sturbridge 302 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:16,880 Drive. >> Motion approve. 303 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,640 » Motion to approve. >> Second. 304 00:23:17,360 --> 00:23:22,480 » We have a motion and a second for approval. Does anyone have any 305 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:26,640 questions? >> I do. 306 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:33,520 » Yes. Trusty Stanton. Was there ever any mention? I mean, this fence was approved 307 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:37,679 for six foot and uh a 10-ft section was put in and then a 6ft section after 308 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:45,679 that. Is there any discussion about a fine for doing that? 309 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:51,520 » Not from the plan commission. No. >> Did anybody from the plan division uh 310 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:55,640 think about doing something like that or recommending that to the board? 311 00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:03,960 Can't hear you. Can't hear you. >> Jenny, if you would please. Thank you. 312 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:12,640 » Certainly, we could go through the code enforcement process. Typically, um we 313 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:17,200 give the option of um going through the variation process or removing the fence. 314 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:21,600 Um if they were unsuccessful in getting the variation, they would be required to 315 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:25,200 remove the fence. Um, and then certainly if they don't remove the fence, we could 316 00:24:23,120 --> 00:24:29,279 go through the the code enforcement process at that time. Um, and go to 317 00:24:27,679 --> 00:24:33,520 adjudication. >> I mean, it upsets me that someone gets 318 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:38,320 approval to put up a fence. They're told it's only supposed to be 6T and they go 319 00:24:35,679 --> 00:24:43,279 ahead and put up a 10-ft fence and then they come back here and ask for approval 320 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:50,880 after the fact. Didn't we used to uh assess a fine like 321 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:54,640 double the uh permit fee if um we quit doing that? 322 00:24:52,559 --> 00:25:00,320 » I think it's mostly on a case- by case basis. We can certainly look into if 323 00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:04,240 there are some available fines in our um resolution that we have right now. Um if 324 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:10,080 you'd like us to take a look at that, we can do that. 325 00:25:06,799 --> 00:25:13,600 » I certainly would appreciate it. >> Is the petitioner here? 326 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:17,760 Yes, sir. >> Did you want to say a few words, sir? Or 327 00:25:15,279 --> 00:25:20,760 just identify yourself for the record? >> Um, 328 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:30,279 » yeah. >> Uh, Brad Ankler, 4285 Disturbidge Drive. 329 00:25:31,120 --> 00:25:37,840 » You don't have to say anything. It's up to you. 330 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:42,720 » Okay. Um, well, I'm here 331 00:25:41,120 --> 00:25:47,760 trying to finalize the permit, I guess you could say. 332 00:25:44,559 --> 00:25:50,400 » Why was the one section 10 ft? >> Why? 333 00:25:48,559 --> 00:25:56,159 » Yeah, >> we're built on a hill and many years ago 334 00:25:54,080 --> 00:26:03,360 we moved in, we we flattened out the land and so I could put a pole in and um 335 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:11,320 over the years the stuff rots away, you know, and changes. So, but uh this time 336 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:11,320 the fence um 337 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:18,480 if I don't know if you saw pictures of it, but it it 338 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:25,440 » it's a pretty good incline. And if we put the 6T fence up with the deck that 339 00:26:21,360 --> 00:26:31,520 we have in there for the pool, the you have to have a fence per code on the 340 00:26:28,559 --> 00:26:35,360 deck. So we would had a fence at six foot and then inside that it would have 341 00:26:33,679 --> 00:26:41,360 been a railing you might say around it. So 342 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:46,080 thought it would I thought it would look a lot neater and better that if we just 343 00:26:43,360 --> 00:26:52,080 made the fence you know incorporated both in the same time it would just be a 344 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:56,320 cleaner look for us and for the neighborhood. 345 00:26:53,679 --> 00:27:01,200 Um, so it's >> I can't say that it doesn't look okay 346 00:26:59,360 --> 00:27:04,960 and I won't say that I won't approve it, but I just don't approve of the method 347 00:27:02,799 --> 00:27:11,679 of how you did it. >> Yeah, been preferable to ask to try to 348 00:27:07,919 --> 00:27:14,960 get a variation on it to talk to the code people. 349 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:18,320 » Yeah, and I can speak during the meeting. Of course, we did bring that 350 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:22,720 up. Um again if you look at the finding effects um you know we put in there 351 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:27,360 definitely where it is higher uh there is a grading different differential and 352 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:31,600 uh obviously the deck played a big factor in that because even if it was 6 353 00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:35,919 foot the deck would have been another 4t the part of that portion. So you know 354 00:27:34,159 --> 00:27:40,240 you can see some of the old pictures. So we did review that as a committee and uh 355 00:27:38,559 --> 00:27:45,600 again one of the recommending conditions is this is only one section that can be 356 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:50,320 at that 10 ft not the entire 6 ft. So there is some uh extra you know bullet 357 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:55,440 points within that variation too and I believe correct there's a cost to the 358 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:59,200 even the uh putting in a a variation. Correct. 359 00:27:56,399 --> 00:28:02,880 » Yeah there is an application fee. >> SD 360 00:28:00,799 --> 00:28:09,679 um I drove by it and it looks like only three of the panels are 10 ft. Uh and it 361 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:13,760 looks good. Two of the three are I'm not discrediting how you feel about the 362 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:16,960 process by the way. I agree. But it looks nice and the evergreen trees. I 363 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:20,799 don't know how they got it in there without killing those trees, but it it 364 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:25,679 looks really nice. And uh I've never seen that style of fence before, but um 365 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:30,799 and the yard does slope to where it gives it a natural good look in terms 366 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:35,120 of, you know, the way it's installed. 367 00:28:32,799 --> 00:28:39,120 » It's a good reason to do it. And I think would have been approved as you did it 368 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:45,760 ultimately, but it would have been better to have uh asked for the approval 369 00:28:43,679 --> 00:28:49,279 of it first. >> Anyone else have anything else? 370 00:28:47,039 --> 00:28:53,919 » I think Karen doesn't have something too. [clears throat] 371 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:59,440 » How long has the fence been up? >> This particular fence, 372 00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:03,760 » this section that's 10 ft. Yeah, >> they finished it, I think, last 373 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:05,039 November. So, it's been within the past year. 374 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:10,320 » Yeah. >> Okay. And did we spot it? Is that how it 375 00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:13,440 came to be? >> During the inspections. During the 376 00:29:12,399 --> 00:29:16,159 inspections. >> Okay. 377 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:18,320 » But it was applied to be a six-foot fence. 378 00:29:16,559 --> 00:29:22,159 » Correct. It was approved as a sixft fence. 379 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:28,240 » Okay. Thank you. >> One thing that I have is uh Jen, we used 380 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:33,760 to get in the minutes from the plan commission those people who voted. Uh, I 381 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:38,960 mean, we have seven A's and zero NAS, two absent. I used to like to find out 382 00:29:36,559 --> 00:29:42,799 who was here, who wasn't here, right? >> We put that back on. 383 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:45,919 » Sure. Yeah, we can. >> Thank you. 384 00:29:44,159 --> 00:29:49,279 » All righty. Any other questions from anybody? 385 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:51,360 Seeing none, uh, we have a motion second.

Trusty Arnet. Hi, >> Trusty Canain. 391 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,440 » Hi, >> Mayor Mloud. 392 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:09,919 » Hi.

Anybody sign up? 396 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:23,520 » No sir. >> Does anybody here wants to make a public 397 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:28,080 comment? >> I guess not.
