This item concerns a variance request for a property located along Shady Creek Lane. The applicant is seeking to install a 6-foot-tall fence in line with the front plane of their home. The property is a corner lot, 11,325 square feet, and currently developed with a single-family home in the Sawgrass Point Planned Unit Development (PUD) zoning district. The applicant argues that special circumstances exist because the secondary front yard borders a common area, not another residence, and that existing mature hedges and landscaping provide substantial visual screening. This case is currently under review by the Planning Commission. The project involves the installation of a fence, which may require site preparation, material supply, and installation services. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to monitor this review process as it progresses, as early engagement before final permits are issued could offer a competitive advantage.
