OLD BUSINESS:
A. DR-25-98 - Maintenance Buildin1! For Banbury Meadows Golf Course -
Banbury Meadows. LLC. : The Zoning Administrator is requesting reconsideration of
Condition #2 ofDR-25-98. It states, "Install a minimum 6' high cedar fence instead of
chain link (Chain-link fencing is not permitted)."
Based upon the fact that the code states, chain-link fencing is not permitted for screening
(and is not otherwise specifically prohibited), and since no screening is needed because a
landscaped berm is planned, the proposed use is a golf course driving range, and the
property owners have an agreement (approved by the City back in 1995) for chain-link,
the Zoning Administrator recommends the following change to condition #2: "Install a
minimum 6' high cedar fence instead of chain link except that chain link shall be
permitted between the Dillard property and the golf course driving range (from the north
propertv line to a point approximate Iv 350-feet south)."
The 1.29-acre maintenance area is on the interior of the proposed Banbury Meadows golf
course approximately 560-feet west of Eagle Road and Y2 mile north of Chin den
Boulevard.
Vaughan briefly explains the reason for the reconsideration.
Vance moves to approve the DR-25-98 changing the required cedar fence to a chain
link fence. Seconded by Anderson. ALL AYE...MOTION CARRIES.
