Information
SUBJECT:
A text amendment to the City's Code Of Ordinances at Section 125-322 relating to fences on vacant lots.
SUMMARY:
The proposed amendments provide permits to be issued for fences on vacant property providing that certain height, access and locational standards are met. Unsecured vacant lots often result in dumping grounds that are difficult to properly maintain. In addition, inappropriately designed fencing can negatively impact the visual character and quality of life for surrounding residents and businesses. The proposed amendments also provide for access to be maintained for code enforcement purposes.
