APPLEWOOD POINTE FENCE NARRATIVE <br /> Applewood Pointe Residential Cooperative is requesting a Special Use Permit to <br /> allow the installation of an eight foot high fence along a portion of our north <br /> property line. <br /> Our neighbor to the north is the Johnson Screens Industrial Property and the <br /> purpose of the fence is to screen a view that now exists into the Johnson <br /> property. That area of their property is a delivery, loading, and storage area <br /> which accommodates steel products and other materials required for their <br /> manufacturing process. As such, the area also has a significant amount of truck <br /> traffic. <br /> The view from our north property line was formerly blocked by evergreen trees that <br /> were provided when the Cooperative was built about fourteen years ago. Those <br /> trees have lost a significant amount of their lower growth to a height of about <br /> eight feet and the proposed fence would provide the visual barrier formerly <br /> provided by the evergreens. <br /> We have been advised by a landscape architect that we will have a difficult time <br /> getting anything to grow beneath the existing trees so we have concluded that a <br /> fence would be the best permanent solution. <br /> The proposed fence does not affect anything along Old Highway 8 or any other <br /> nearby property. <br /> In making this request we are protecting the view from the building entrance and <br /> entrance drive at the ground level, as well as the lower and upper floor <br /> apartments on the north side of the building in that area. <br /> Thank you for your consideration. <br />
