[ 10 / 11 / 051 A 6' high solid fence is required along the parking areas on the
south side of the lot. There's a note on the site plan showing an "existing
fence @ south property line", but it's unclear how tall that fencing is, and if
it's all along the south lot line. If it's all along the south lot line, then a note
should be added stating that in the event the homeowners to the south
remove their fence, then the developer or HOA will be responsible for
constructing a fence to screen the parking spaces as required.
This fence is 6' tall and is along the fu11 length of the south lot line.
