AND GUIDELINES:
This application is for the installation of fencing along
be a combination of three foot tall metal
fences and gates, six foot tall metal
fences and gates and some six foot tall
wood fencing.
The interior property lines (north and west
sides) already have a six foot tall wood
privacy fence. The additional fencing that
is the subject of this application will totally
enclose the property. A three foot metal
fence will be placed between the
buildings and the street on both 7th and
Sherman Streets. It will be a Montage
Plus fence Genesis style with triad style
finials. There will be three man gates at
the sidewalks that enter the property (two
7th and Sherman Street frontages. It will
at the porches and one between the two buildings. This fence will roughly parallel the street but
will have some jogs in the fence to go around existing trees. The fence will be placed at an
angle at the street corner for visibility of cars at the intersection.
At the driveways, there will be a combination of six foot fences and vehicular gates. The 15 feet
wide gate will be placed 27 feet off the property line on the 7th Street entrance and operate as a
rolling fence that will roll to the west when opened. The new fence will extend from the wood
privacy fence to the building at a corner approximately 11 feet back from the front of the
building. One parking space will be left to the outside of the fence. The Sherman Street gate
will be a swinging gate angled between 30 and 35 feet off the property line. The 18 feet wide
gate will swing toward the street. This fence will extend from the dumpster enclosure fencing to
the side of the building just behind the bay window projection. These fences will also be the
Montage Plus fence Genesis style with triad style finials.
There will be one section of six foot fencing between the two buildings on the 7th Street side

NEIGHBORHOOD COMMENTS AND REACTION: At the time of distribution, there was one
comment regarding this application of a negative nature.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval with the following conditions:
1. Obtaining a building permit.
COMMISSION ACTION: May 14, 2018
Brian Minyard, Staff, made a brief presentation of the item including an email and a phone call
that were both in opposition to the item. He reviewed the email that was provided to the
commission today from Melissa Wood and it was provided to the applicant.
Ed Sergeant, the architect for the project, spoke for the applicant. He believes that the fence is
tastefully done and it is pulled back from the street. It will have the quad flare finial instead of
the triad finial as shown in the application. He stated that there will be one space outside of the
fence for guests. If the fence was moved farther away from the street, additional spaces would
be lost. This parking lot has a one way traffic pattern. The applicant and he took a look around
the area and some fences were taller than the one they are proposing and he gave examples.
The relation to the front of the building is different in this application and he believes that they
are in compliance with the guidelines.
Commissioner Dick Kelley asked if the Commission approved a fence earlier on this site. Mr.
Minyard stated that they did not. There was an item that was withdrawn last year that was
similar to this application, but the action was to permit withdrawal.
There were no citizens present for citizen comment.
Vice Chair Jeremiah Russell made a motion to approve as submitted with staff
recommendations. Commissioner Dick Kelly seconded and the motion passed with a vote of 6
ayes, 0 noes, and 1 absent (Frederick).

DESIGN ADVANTAGES
• All Terrain Fence (ATF)" Panel Design
Architectural design and construction technology have
progressed to enable new facility construction on rough and
uneven terrain that was previously considered unfeasible
for permanent structures. Montage Plus"ATF maintains its
rigid strength, while adapting to slopes as severe
as a 30 inch rise In an 8 foot run.
• Pool, Pet & Pray (PPP)" Picket space option
In many cases related to child care, public swimming
pools, and containment, a narrower space may be de-
sired or required for added safety or security. Montage
Plus" offers the optional 3" space.
P
• Flush Bottom Rail Option
Far same applications, a Hush bottom rail maybe necessary
to meet local building codes or simply to meet an aesthetic
preference.
11: ''1 L M
The P -Coat combination of galvanized steel, zinc phosphate
pre-treatment, and epoxy and acrylic double coating
provide the protection necessary to withstand adverse
weathering effects and justify the 'best-in-the-business'20
Year Warranty.
