title

Consideration of a Variance to Lewisville City Code, Chapter 4, Article X, Section 4-453 (h)(1) Fences, To Allow for Alternative Materials for a Proposed Fence located at 125 North Mill Street; and to Provide a Waiver of the $350.00 Variance Request Fee as Specified in Section 2-201, Fee Ordinance.

ADMINISTRATIVE COMMENTS:

 

The applicant is proposing to construct a metal post and cable fence separating the subject property from the Wayne Ferguson Plaza alley.  This type of construction will provide for visibility to the alley and rear façade of the buildings located on Main Street.  The proposed construction does not meet the material requirement outlined in the fence ordinance, which means a variance is required. Furthermore, because this specific fence design is being required by a related economic development agreement, staff also requests a waiver of the variance fee.

 

RECOMMENDATION:

 

That the City Council approve the requested variance and fee waiver as set forth in the caption above.

 

AVAILABLE FOR QUESTIONS:

 

Tim Ippolito, Fire Marshal/Development Manager
