This item concerns a request to allow an existing, unpermitted six-foot tall fence to remain on a property located at the southwestern intersection of Ravenshill Way and Carlyle Lane. The property is a corner lot, 7,268 square feet, within the Victoria Park Planned Development. The current request is to permit the six-foot fence, which is setback five feet from the street-side property line, to stay. This fence exceeds the two-foot height limit for fences in street-side setback areas. The Planning Board is currently reviewing this request. If approved, the project would involve work related to site boundaries and potentially fence modification or replacement. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers should consider reaching out to the applicant or relevant city departments to understand the final decision and potential needs for fence work or other site improvements, as early engagement can provide a competitive advantage before bids and permits are finalized.
