Enterprise TAB
DENIED
The TAB recommends this application be
denied.
The TAB considered the following:
·
The applicant desires a 8
ft. metal fence surrounding the entire property.
·
The fence adjacent to the
·
The applicant presented a wooden cross section
model.
·
No pictures of an installed metal fence were
presented.
·
The fence would be painted.
·
The applicant justified height with security
concerns and protection from coyotes.
·
Part of the justification is other higher fences in
the area.
·
The highest examples were east of I-15 and not
related to this area.
·
Neighbors present are opposed to the fence height
and design.
·
There is a possibility that the paint will not hold
up in the sun.
·
The 8 ft. height will not stop coyotes. A different design is required.
·
Current resident, long term, stated coyotes are not
a problem.
The TAB opinion is the applicant did
not meet the objective of Urban Land Use Policy # 16.
“All
new perimeter walls,
fences, driveways, trails,
and other surfaces
should be decorative.
Encourage designs to visually minimize the stark appearance of a
monotonous block wall face and should
use alternative materials
made from renewable
and recyclable sources
that do not trap
and radiate heat. Incorporate
design elements to discourage graffiti and encourage graffiti-resistant wall
treatment”
The TAB opinion is the fence would
present a fortress like appearance that does not belong in the RNP
neighborhood. This is a consistent TAB
position. The fence would not accomplish the stated purposes of security and
protection from coyotes. Experience
indicates open areas have fewer security problems because the bad guys do not
like the visibility. The design
presented would not deter coyotes from entering the property. The TAB is not
convinced that the fence paint would not hold up in the sun.

per staff conditions
The original developer of this
sub-division went bankrupt leaving project parts unfinished. The home owner was left with a 4 ft. rear
wall. This was sufficient until the
adjacent KB development placed a two story home 10 feet from the existing fence
where the applicant’s home is side loaded.
The TAB has no objection to being the wall up to 6 feet for additional
privacy.

The TAB is concerned with any setback
reduction on 25 ft. wide stub streets.
There is the potential to create a canyon like effects on these narrow
streets. The TAB recommended that the
setback reduction be limited to 1/3 of the homes on 25 ft. wide stub streets.

·
Design review as a public hearing for lighting and signage with more detailed
plans, including photometric values and details on lighting fixture, for all
on-site lighting.
Signage was not discussed in the staff
agenda sheets. The TAB has consistently
recommended signage near residential areas be reviewed as a public
hearing.
Because the proposed lighting could
seriously affect area residents, the TAB recommended the lighting be reviewed
as a public hearing.

Public Works – Development Review condition:
·
All pole mounted lighting to be fully
shielded including street lighting.
One point that could not be resolved
is the possibility of a pipe line or other easement across the sight. The OPENWEB maps show an item labeled as AccS Conquistador.
No one at the TAB meeting was able to explain what is AccS Conquistador.
The TAB has consistently recommended the use of
fully shielded lighting in residential areas.
An additional factor is the Redrock overlay is
just west of this project. The use of
lighting is strictly controlled in the Redrock
overlay. There should be a transition area, for lighting,
along the Redrock overlay boundary.
