March 15, 2022 Page 4 No fence shall be placed in such a manner as to materially impede vision between a height of two and one-half (2 ½ ) feet and ten (10) feet above the centerline grades of the intersection of a street and alley or driveway such that a clear line of vision is possible of the intersecting street from a distance of fifteen (15) feet along the edge of the street and along the alley or driveway, and a third line connecting the other sides, unless otherwise required or approved by the Zoning Administrator or other Authorized Agent. It is however, acknowledged that the proposed increase in fence height will have no impact on existing traffic visibility conditions. As a condition of conditional use permit approval, it is recommended that the new fence meet all applicable fence construction requirements as outlined in Section 150.073 of the Code and reiterated below: (A) Fences and walls shall be constructed in a manner and of such materials that do not adversely affect the appearance of the neighborhood or adjacent property values. Fences shall not be constructed from poultry netting (chicken wire), welded wire, snow fence, branches, or materials originally intended for other purposes, unless upon the showing of a high degree of architectural quality achieved through the use of such materials, and prior approval is granted by the Zoning Administrator or other Authorized Agent. (B) Fences and walls hereafter erected shall be durable, weather resistant, rust proof, and easily maintained. (C) Fences shall have structural supports (posts/footings) as required by the Building Official. (D) Fences and walls shall be constructed of new or like new materials. (E) The finished appearance of fences and walls shall be constructed with the higher quality finish directed toward the exterior of the property if the visual quality of the fence or wall is not the same on both sides. (F) The framing and posts of wood, chain link, picket, stockade, and decorative metal fences shall face the inside of the parcel area fenced. The side of the fence considered to be the face (facing as applied to fence posts) shall face the abutting property. (G)No more than two (2) types of related fencing materials shall be used in any fence and wall. (H)Both sides of any fence or wall shall be maintained in a condition of reasonable repair and appearance by its owner and shall not be allowed to become and remain in a condition of disrepair or danger, or constitute a nuisance, public or private. (I) The property owner is responsible for providing proof of property line location.
