Upon a motion by Board Member ABBOTTand second by Board Member HOVLAND
the following resolution was stated:
WHEREAS, the applicant was denied permission by an administrative officer; and
WHEREAS, Board of Adjustment Application Case No. WA-99-09 is an appeal to this
Board from the decision of an administrative officer; and
WHEREAS, the property has been posted the fifteen days required by law, and there
were no protests registered against it; and

welfare and without substantially impairing the intent and purpose of the regulations
governing the City of Wheat Ridge.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that Board of Adjustment Application Case
No. WA-99-09 be, and hereby is, approved.
TYPE OF VARIANCE: A one-foot fence height variance from the four-foot fence
height requirement to allow for a five-foot fence in the minimum front yard setback.
FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:
1. The property in question is located in an area that remains semi-agricultural.
2. The applicant has been using this property for growing pumpkins, corn and other
crops for a number of years and lately has been having problem with vandalism to
his crop before it can be sold. The variance would allow for some additional
protection from these outside effects.
3. The applicant has built a fence that is open wire similar to chain link construction
which will allow for more than adequate visibility. The property is not on a
corner and the fence is not located within the site triangle. Therefore, approval of
this request should not be detrimental to the public's welfare or injurious to other
property improvements.

4. The fence is primarily constructed of a material similar to chain link, therefore
approval of this variance will not impair the viewplane of adjacent properties or
passersby.
The loss of additional land caused by building the fence at a thirty-foot setback
would cost the use of valuable agricultural land.
WITH THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS:
This variance shall remain in force only as long as the property remains zoned
agricultural.
2. This variance is for an open mesh wire fence and would not allow for a solid
fence or modification of this existing open wire fence.
