Hanover planners discuss streamlining fence permits, split on removing administrative review
Summary
Planning staff told commissioners July 28 that ordinance changes to the city’s fence-permit process are forthcoming; one commissioner supported removing an administrative permit for small fences, while another opposed that change.
City Planner Cindy Nash told the Planning Commission on July 28 that staff are encountering challenges with the current fencing permitting process and plan to propose ordinance amendments at a future meeting.
Commissioner Cody Vojacek said he favors reducing staff workload and is open to eliminating the administrative permit process for certain fences. Commissioner Jason Mix said he opposed removing the permitting requirement for fences below a specified height and did not support eliminating review for smaller fences.
Nash did not provide ordinance language at the July 28 meeting; she characterized the discussion as preliminary and said staff would return with proposed amendments for commission consideration.
