1 PLANNING COMMISSION AUGUST 20 , 1991 PAGE 4 4 5 6 Madden felt that a fence is viewed as screening and vice 7 versa. He thought that most people usually thought of a fence 8 as a structure on a lot line. 9 10 Faust noted that a fence provides privacy. He would be more 11 concerned about this fence if it were to go all the way back 12 to the end of the property or if it were located on the 13 property line. He noted he can understand Mr. Shamp' s intent 14 because of the special and unique circumstances . .1:5 16 Examples of "circumstances" were requested by Madden but none 17 were given at this time . 18 19 Faust felt that the height of the deck closes up a potentially 20 unsightly area and does add to the area. He thinks it is a 21 first class project . 22 23 Murphy observed that the project does not give a sense of a 24 closed fence and that it was very open. It only goes to the 25 end of the deck and not out into the yard. 26 Franzese felt circumstances are special and this is a special design. Murphy felt it was unique as it does not hinder any 9 site lines nor does it block any passage. 30 31 Franzese felt the design which goes down to the ground is more 3.2 aesthetically pleasing. 33 34 Roll call : Madden, Faust , Franzese, Gondorchin, Murphy, 35 Werenicz - aye 36 37 Brownell - nay 38 39 Motion carried 40 41 Mr. Shamp was advised his attendance at the September 10th Council 42 Meeting is recommended but not required.
