Elman Residence Fence Variance (VAR 26-01)

The applicant explained his home sits at the highest point of the street and his existing 5-foot wall lets people look right over into his yard. He's asking only for a 30-foot section of 8-foot fencing, leaving the bottom open so he can see and clean out debris that falls between the fence and the existing wall.

A resident from across the street asked whether the board's vote would extend taller fencing to other properties, and was told the variance applies only to Elman's lot.
