South Bend Zoning Ordinance St. Joseph County Zoning Ordinance Does your project involve any of the following? (Check all that apply):Fences, Landscaping Contractor Information Homeowners * Richmond Contractor Phone Number ( Description of Proposed Work: My husband and I are homeowners of a historic craftsman bungalow in South Bend in need of replacing existing fence panels in the back/ west side yard between properties and adding matching fence panels to a stretch of fence in the back/east side between properties that currently only has trellis wire. So, on the west side we just want to replace the broken fence. And on the other side we want to keep the trellis wire for climbing plants but add a layer of privacy behind it that will block the view of our neighbors driveway and their comings and goings from our backyard and dining room window. And we’d also gain privacy in our dining room from anyone in their driveway or porch. Unfortunately, the climbing plants don’t offer much privacy most of the year. We feel that a cozy, intimate, cottage garden view from the dining room would suit the home better. It would also make the experience of being in the back garden more enjoyable. So, we plan on purchasing 6x8ft wood fence panels from home depot or the like and installing them ourselves. There is trellis in the front yard to the right and left of the gate that we will also back with trimmed to fit fence panels to match. There is some trellis in the back yard sectioning off the raised bed area from the rest of the back yard that we don’t plan on adding fence panels to. Although two fence posts there need to be replaced. From the front it looks unaltered and as charming as ever with the signature porch and sloping roof taking center stage.
