Item No. 3

Staff was directed to review the front yard height limits, provide more flexibility in the street side yard setbacks and height limits, and establish a height limit for granting amnesty to existing non-conforming fences. The Council also expressed opposition to chain link and barbed wire fences in residential areas and indicated a desire to revert to the 1967 fence height measurement from the sidewalk line or 6 inches above the street level as opposed to grade level. Finally, staff was directed to present the matter to the Planning Board and conduct a public outreach program.
