Stewart seeks 6‑ft privacy fence on corner lot; hearing closed for plan clarifications
Brenna and Jeremy Stewart presented application ZBA 26‑24 seeking permission to replace an existing fence at 107 Keith Place with a 6‑foot privacy fence. The board opened the hearing, reviewed zoning rules for fences and walls in the R22 district, and discussed required setbacks.
Staff explained that a 6‑foot fence must be set back two‑thirds of its height (effectively 4 feet) from the lot line as measured from average finished grade. The applicant said most of the fence will remain in the existing footprint and described an existing 8‑ft wide access gate; board members asked the applicant to mark the gate and the proposed setback on the submitted plan.
After clarifications the board closed the Stewart hearing and requested the applicant submit a plan showing the gate, exact setbacks and any measurements needed for the record. The transcript does not record a final approval or denial of ZBA 26‑24 in the provided excerpt; any final action or conditions should appear in the board’s written decision.
