Board approves backyard fence replacement for safety around private pool
Summary
A representative for Josh Mather sought approval to replace roughly 320 linear feet of failing cedar picket fence around a yard and pool; the board approved the replacement, noting the design retains existing height and includes mesh to secure pets and children.
The board approved an application to replace an existing fence that encloses a backyard and private pool. The applicant’s representative described about 320 linear feet of replacement fencing, keeping the 42-inch height and using horizontal cedar planks with perpendicular mesh to keep dogs and children out of the pool area.
Board members asked whether the proposed fence would alter required dimensions and whether safety around the pool was addressed; staff and the agent said the new fence would match existing height and layout and was intended to reduce access to the pool. The board closed testimony and voted to accept the application as presented; the chair announced the vote result as “3 to nothing.”
