Information
The Petitioner, James Stapleton, proposes to replace an existing nonconforming fence in an exterior side yard on property located at 1
S. Busse Road (the "Subject Property"). A variation from the fence location requirements is required. The Zoning Ordinance does not
allow solid fences within ten feet (10') of an exterior side yard property line if the exterior side yard abuts the front yard of an adjacent
lot. The adjacent lot, 1619 W. Central Road, has its front yard adjacent to the exterior side yard of the Subject Property, Thus, a
variation is needed to remove and replace the existing nonconforming fence along Central Road. The proposed fence would extend
along the eastern and southern property lines. The fence along the southern property line is proposed to be four feet (4') tall.
Village staff reviewed the Petitioner's request and believe unique conditions exist that are not generally applicable to other property
along Central Road, and is generally supportive of the request. Staff researched and/or conducted site visits of other corner properties
along Central Road and found there are 37 single-family residentially zoned properties that have exterior side yards abutting Central
Road, 3 of which abut a front yard of a neighboring property, meaning their fence must be setback ten feet (10') from the exterior yard
property line. The Subject Property is 1 of 3 properties and the other 2 contain existing non -conforming fences. All other single-family
homes with fences have them erected on the property line that abuts Central Road.
