Summary

Town attorney presented a staff request to permit vinyl fencing in two commercial districts but commissioners voted to table the proposed text change until standards for vinyl quality can be added.

On May 20, 2020, staff asked the Planning & Zoning Commission to consider a text amendment allowing vinyl fence materials in the Victory Drive and River Drive districts.

Town Attorney Charlie Barrow said the current draft would allow vinyl but contained no quality standard. Commissioner Jim Kearns asked whether a standard was included; Building Inspector Bob Fischer recommended adding standards to ensure quality. Commissioner John Mattingly moved to table the discussion until a standard can be written and included; Commissioner Len Hiers seconded the motion and the commission voted to table the change unanimously.

The commission’s action postponed any change to the code until staff produces a revised draft that includes material standards for vinyl fencing.
