STAFF REPORT
The Planning Manager recommends denial of this request.
Noel Jaimes is requesting a certificate of appropriateness to allow A rock
face @, concrete block columns for a wrought iron fence and to stucco
his house at 2520 Liberty Avenue.
Mr. Jaimes states that he inquired about a permit for the fence and
was told he did not need a permit for a fence. He does admit that
he forgot to mention he was located in the Oaks Historic District.
Staff stopped progress on the fence as soon as it was reported. The
blocks are designed to look like cut stone, not concrete.
Section 30-21.2 states that, A Concrete block fences are not permitted and . . . all
exposed brick in a fence column or base must be fired brick as defined by the American
Standard Testing Materials Designation C-126-75A, Type Grade FBS-SW.@
Exhibits are attached.
