Fence, until covered by the hedge, will be visible from the street . BACKGROUND This item came originally as a staff approved COA. When I made a site visit to the property I realized the amount of visibility the fence presented to the street . I explained the situation to the applicant and sent him the attached letter. The fence is to be used to support a bougainvillea hedge . It will commence approximately 20 ' from the front property line and run north along the east property line for 32 ' . The fence would be placed 2 ' west of, and run parallel to, the existing wood fence which is located on the adjacent property. The chain link is clad in green vinyl . Mr. Tallentire stated that he does not want to use his neighbor' s fence as a support for the bougainvillea and prefers to have his own trellis . The applicant ' s property is extremely well maintained and is attractively landscaped. He says the bougainvillea will be planted the day the fence is complete. Recommendation: Board' s discretion. ACTION TAKEN BY THE HPB COA S-026 was denied by 4-1 . The COA was denied pursuant to the Design Guidelines, which state that chain link fences are inappropriate in historic districts but may be used in the rear of a property.
