Prohibited <br />No changes may be made to the appearance of the site by removing trees, fencing, walkways, <br />outbuildings or other elements before evaluating their importance to the property's history and <br />development. Front yard areas shall not be transformed into parking lots nor paved nor blacktopped, <br />nor enclosed by solid fences, chain link, nor industrial/commercial style fences. <br />The installation of unsightly large devices, such as television satellite dishes, skylights or solar <br />panels, shall not be permitted in areas where they detract from the architecture of a building, are <br />intrusive to the public view of the building or are highly visibly from a public street, or ruled inappropriate <br />after Commission review. Utility poles with high-intensity overhead lights should be installed so that they <br />cannot be seen from a street. The Commission will evaluate all installations as well as any potential <br />exceptions resulting from special circumstances, before granting a C of A. <br />STAFF RECOMMENDATION: This is a very basic, utilitarian solution to resolving the intrusion <br />issue from vehicles backing into yard from the garage and driving through the back yard from the <br />alleyway. The staff recommends approval for a fence in the rear of the house but that the design needs to <br />be refined. <br />
