Dear Ms. Livingston,
The Church Security Department (CSD) recommends that a six-foot fence be installed on the
front property line at the Fort Collins Temple site.
CSD frequently consults on the security infrastructure at sites where Temples are constructed.
Since each site has its own criteria for protection, we evaluate the security package on an
individual basis. Based on fence designs at other Temple properties, and due to the history of
incidents, we request approval to install a six-foot fence on the front property line.
Perimeter fencing is a critical component of the total security package. The fence at Fort Collins
will be used in concert with an electronic security system to provide early detection of
trespassers when the building is closed. Installation of a six-foot fence enables the Church to
provide the maximum level of protection possible without negatively impacting the visual
features of the property. Due to the high net-worth of the asset, a six-foot fence is the minimum
standard we would recommend.
The design of the security fence at the Fort Collins site is very aesthetic. It allows the Church to
benefit from the needed protection with a design that compliments the surrounding area. Since it
is incorporated into the landscape, the visual appearance of the fence would be minimal.
We would appreciate your favorable consideration of this request.
Sincerely,
7~-~-
Ryan Taylor
Security Specialist
