Planning Commission Tuesday, February 21st, 1961 FENCE POLICY STUDIED Don Carter, 8331 Yorktown.Ave., H. B., addressed the Commission and submitted a petition requesting a change of policy in fence enforcement. Carter requested permission to place a,six ft high fence high up on an' -embankment. Building Director Jack Cleveland, explained to the Commission that Carterls adjoining neighbor could be issued a permit for the fence along the embankment because it was equal to the -height or below the grade of the neighbors house pad elevation. Likewise, it was explained, that Carter's fence could only be six feet high above the pad elevation'of his house regardless of the height of the ' surrounding embankment. Cleveland pointed out that there were good reasons for this code, inasmuch as an owner usually buys a home on a bluff.or embankment site for the view. It would not be reasonable to allow the neighbor below to fence off his view without his permission. Chairman Bazil stated a parallel case in Laguna Beac4 - which he described as a moral that you cannot buy hillside property and expect to fence the yard for privacy by screening out the upside neighbor. The problem was taken under submission. There beijig no further business, the meeting was adjourned. Clifford E. Tripp, Secretary -22- Rd, e � (7"Ooa e t B z ob r a il, Chairman
