Document Description
The proposed Minor Use Permit (MUP) would permit the construction and installation of a 6-foot fence within the required front yard and along the secondary frontage. The increased fence height is requested to provide reasonable privacy and security while maintaining adequate sight lines and avoiding traffic safety impacts. The subject property is located at the terminus of a cul-de-sac within a private HOA development, where vehicular traffic is minimal and sight line constraints are not present. As such, the proposed fence height will not adversely affect visibility or circulation.
Secondly, the proposed MUP would approve for a 25% reduction to the second-story rear yard setback from 20 feet to 15 feet in accordance with Section 42.4(i). A 25% reduction in rear setbacks allows for a more regularized building footprint that supports conventional vertical alignment of walls and load paths. This results in a more straightforward and constructible structural system without increasing overall site coverage or intensity of use.
