Kurt Larsen/Mike Ashburn
The petition is for waiver of Section:
11.21 Subd. 7
B & C (1)
to allow for a fence 8 feet in height along
the north and east lot lines. The fence
would be an enclosure around an exisiting
swimming pool. (Any fence over 6 feet high
is considered a structure).
The petition was in order. Consent obtained from all adjacent properties.
Kurt Larsen and Mike Ashburn were present. No others were in attendance.
Secretary, Lloyd Becker, said the Building Code does not require a permit
for fences six (6) feet or under. Over 6 feet, it requires a permit and is
considered a structure wall. As such, this requires a waiver if within the
required setback.

Mahlon Swedberg noted the fence at 8 feet is primarily around the existing
swimming pool, which is already adjacent the side and rear lot lines. Mike
Sell noted this is more an administrative matter rather than a habitable
structure proposed within the setback area.
Sell moved to approve the waiver as on the agenda, noting topography, loca-
tion of adjacent existing homes and the large setbacks that exist for this
property, (59 feet from Glenwood and 47 feet from Natchez as a corner lot).
Second by Don Singer and upon vote carried.
There being no further business to come before the Board, it was upon motion,
second, and vote to adjourn at 7:43 P.M.
