Applicable standards are set out in Zoning Regulations Section 17.70.070, and consideration of exceptions from those standards is authorized by Zoning Regulations Section 17.70.070 (H). On March 24, 2025, the application was approved by the Community Development Director, based on findings of consistency with the intent of standards for f ences, walls, and hedges (see Decision Letter, Attachment D). On April 2, 2025, Craig and Allison Brandum, owners and residents of the property at 1475 Sydney Street, adjacent at the east of the subject site, appealed the Director’s decision (see Appeal Form, Attachment E), and provided additional narrative discussion of the reasons for the appeal, by email (see Appellant Email Correspondence, Attachment F). This appeal is now before the Planning Commission. Meeting Date: 6/11/2025 Item Number: 4a Time Estimate: 45 Minutes Page 25 of 309 Item 4a APPL-0248-2025 (1425 Sydney) Planning Commission Agenda Report – June 11, 2025 In the discussion, the appellants raise concern with the height of hedges planted within the east side setback of the property. The appellants discuss the potential for the neighbors’ hedges to cast shadow onto the lower portion of the appellants’ windows, to limit views and sunlight, as experienced from their property, and for the exception to negatively affect the value of their property. The appellants note window coverings as an alternate means of achieving privacy between the adjacent properties. T he design and height of fencing in the west setback (between 1425 and 1411 Sydney), which were included in the applicant’s exception request, are not discussed in the Appeal Form or correspondence provided with the appeal filing. 3.0 BACKGROUND Site and Setting The subject property is a residential parcel on the south side of Sydney Street, between Augusta Street and Johnson Avenue, in a Low Density Residential (R-1) Zone. It is developed with a single-family dwelling and detached garage. Adjoining properties are also developed with single-family dwellings. Exception Request As shown in Project Plans (Attachment C), the Fence Height Exception application concerned fencing along the property’s two side boundaries: the west side setback, and the east side setback. West side setback. In the west side setback (between 1425 and 1411 Sydney), fencing is erected on top of a short retaining wall about one to two feet in height (see Detail B, Fence and Wall Elevations, Sheet L3 of Project Plans). The fence depicted ranges between five and seven feet in height, with the total combined height of the fencing and the retaining wall ranging between seven and nine feet. Zoning Regulations Section 17.70.070 (F)(3) provides that the height of fences located on retaining walls shall not exceed six feet (measured from the “uphill side”), and the total combined height of a fence and retaining wall (measured from the “downhill side”) shall not exceed nine feet. An exception to this standard was requested, to allow the height of the fence to reach up to seven feet, exceeding the six-foot fence height limit by one foot. This exception was found to be appropriate because the total combined height of the wall and fence, measured from the “low side,” does not exceed nine feet, consistent with the intent of this standard. Staff notes that neither the height of fencing in this setback (the “west” setback), nor the exception granted for the height of this fence is the subject of this appeal. Figure 1: 1425 Sydney St. Page 26 of 309 Item 4a APPL-0248-2025 (1425 Sydney) Planning Commission Agenda Report – June 11, 2025 East side setback. In the east side setback (between 1425 Sydney and the appellants’ property at 1475 Sydney), a wood fence six feet in height is depicted, installed in front of a short retaining wall (see Detail A, Fence and Wall Height Elevations, Sheet L3). Also depicted is an area of additional hedge height, extending three feet above the fence (as measured from the “downhill side”). Standards for the height of fences, walls, and hedges provide a six-foot maximum height for a fence, wall, or hedge in any interior side setback (Zoning Regulations § Section 17.70.070 (C)(4)), and this standard applies to the fencing and hedges that have been installed and planted within this setback. An exception to the standard six-foot height limit was requested here, to allow the height of the hedges to exceed the limit by about three feet (the height of the fence itself conforms to the six-foot limit). The taller hedge height is desired in order to provide additional screening primarily between a bedroom window of the neighboring property and the living and dining area window of the subject property. Enhanced screening is also desired between the neighbors’ bathroom window and the applicants’ rear yard area. Where grade level differs between properties, on either side of a retaining wall, the height of a boundary fence will be taller as measured from the “downhill” side than it will be as measured from the “uphill” side. As noted above, standards for the height of fences, walls, and hedges provide that, where a fence is erected or replaced on top of a retaining wall within a setback, fence height is limited to six feet, measured from the “uphill side,” and the total combined height of the fence and the wall may not exceed nine feet in height. Figure 2: East side setback between 1475 Sydney (left) and 1425 Sydney (right) Figure 3: Living Area Sections; Perceived hedge height 7 feet 8 feet Page 27 of 309 Item 4a APPL-0248-2025 (1425 Sydney) Planning Commission Agenda Report – June 11, 2025 In support of their exception request, the applicants noted the difference in grade between adjacent properties, with the “uphill” property (1475 Sydney) situated about a foot higher in elevation and an unusually high floor height of the neighboring residence as factors that create an overlook situation impacting privacy between properties that could not be mitigated by fencing of standard height (see “Living Area Sections” on Sheet L2 of Project Plans, Attachment C, and Figures 2 and 3). Altering the form or position of windows is not considered to be feasible in this case, and it would be impractical to coordinate opening and closing various window coverings at appropriate times to provide enhanced privacy where needed between the properties. The appellants contacted staff during review of the exception application to express concerns about loss of view and natural light on the side of their house, about limited opportunity for emergency egress to that side of the property, and about buildup of moisture and growth of mold in the planted areas adjacent to the boundary fencing. These concerns were taken into consideration by the Director, in reaching a decision on the application. Director’s Action. On March 24, 2025, the Community Development Director approved the Fence Height Exception application, granting limited exceptio ns from the height standards set out in Zoning Regulations (see Decision Letter, Attachment D). At the west side, as requested, the exception approved allows the fence height to reach seven feet, with a combined fence and wall height not to exceed nine feet. At the east side, a maximum hedge height of nine feet was requested, but a height limit of only eight feet (as measured from the “downhill” side) was approved. Furthermore, the exception would allow additional hedge height only within a limited area of the setback, extending 40 feet from the front wall of the detached garage. Figure 4 below depicts the boundary area between 1425 and 1475 Sydney, with the location of the bedroom and bathroom windows of 1475 Sydney and the living and dining area window of the subject property outlined in blue. Outlined in orange is the limited area (40 feet from the front of the 1425 Sydney garage) within which the exception for taller hedges was approved. Figure 4: Site Plan showing limited exception area (orange) and window orientations (blue) Page 28 of 309 Item 4a APPL-0248-2025 (1425 Sydney) Planning Commission Agenda Report – June 11, 2025 These limitations were imposed with the intent to balance the desire of the applicant for privacy against the provision of adequate light and air to the neighboring property. Hedges that are eight feet tall, measured from the downhill side, would be perceived as no more than seven feet tall from the neighboring property (see Figure 3, above), since that property sits about one foot higher (“uphill”). A vegetative screen, such as a hedge of this type, is dense enough to enhance privacy, but will provide filtered screening that, at the top of the plant, will still allow for partial passage of light and provide an aesthetically pleasing appearance, in contrast to the complete visual obstruction that would be presented by an artificial barrier, such as wood fencing. Limiting the extent of taller hedges is intended to focus the additional screening on the area between the private portions of each property, while maintaining solar exposure to the front half of the adjacent house wall unaffected (see Figure 5). 4.0 APPEAL EVALUATION The concerns raised in the Appeal Form filed by the appellant, and accompanying email correspondence (see Attachments E and F) focus on the effects of shade cast by the existing fencing and potential effects of shading from an additional foot of permitted hedge height (as experienced from their property), a decrease of natural light into their home, compromised views from the home, and the potential to reduce the value of the property due to those effects. Setbacks help determine the pattern of building masses and open areas within neighborhoods, provide separation between combustible materials in neighboring buildings, and help provide landscape beauty, air circulation, views, and exposure to sunlight for both natural illumination and use of solar energy (see Zoning Regulations § 17.70.170 (A) (Setbacks-Purpose)). The appellants’ dwelling at 1475 Sydney is situated three feet from its western property line (adjacent to the subject property), which is two feet narrower than the current minimum (5-foot) side setback applicable to residential development in the R-1 Zone. Figure 5: Limited exception area (outlined in orange); majority of wall (i.e., in front of line) left unaffected Page 29 of 309 Item 4a APPL-0248-2025 (1425 Sydney) Planning Commission Agenda Report – June 11, 2025 Plant growth and soil condition. Privacy fencing at property boundaries is a common feature of residential development and shading of the setback area lying between fencing and adjacent building walls is unavoidable. This portion of a side setback is typically blocked from view of the street, offering little value for landscape beauty, and the viability of these areas for landscape plantings is inherently limited, given their shading and constrained width. The problems described by the appellants with respect to plant growth and soil conditions in this area are reported as conditions now existing, attributable to the location of this area immediately adjacent to boundary fencing. In staff’s analysis, it isn’t clear that the additional hedge height allowed under the Fence Height exception over limited portions of the fence line would significantly alter these existing conditions or hinder the appellant’s use of this portion of their side setback for plantings that are suited for shaded locations. Shade, natural light, and views. The appellants also raise concern with additional shading, decreased natural light, and compromised views that taller hedges might cause at the bedroom and bathroom windows on the southwest wall of their home. Staff notes that the hedge height allowed under the approved exception is eight feet from the “downhill side” (the subject property, at 1425 Sydney). Because of the differential in grade between the properties, the hedges, at that maximum height, would be perceived as seve n feet in height from the appellants’ property. The bedroom windows on this side of the home appear to be situated about 6 inches above the top of the fence line, indicating that hedges at the approved height may rise up to about 1 ½ feet above the bottom of the windows, as seen from inside the appellants’ home. Photos were provided in email correspondence from the appellant, visualizing with a tape measure the portion of views that may be occluded by the additional one foot of permitted hedge height that would be experienced from the appellants’ property (see Attachment F, pp. 2-6). These show that the additional foot of hedge height would largely screen views of the backyard and deck area of the subject (applicants’) property while preserving views of sky and vegetation beyond the property. Interference with natural light into these windows is likely to be minimal, occurring late in the afternoon when the sun has already dropped behind distant trees and rooflines of nearby structures. Furthermore, the uppe r portions of this species of hedge (Pittosporum “Silver Sheen”; see photo details in Attachment C, Sheet L2) present loosely-spaced branches and leaves, allowing for light and views through them, rather than a monolithic and opaque view screen. Summary and recommended action. Given the circumstances discussed above, the decision of the Community Development Director to approve limited exceptions to height standards for fences, walls, and hedges represents a reasonable compromise that allows for adequate privacy between living and outdoor areas of adjacent properties while avoiding undue impacts to solar access and views, and in a manner consistent with the intent and purpose of the City’s standards for fences, wall, hedges, and setbacks. Page 30 of 309 Item 4a APPL-0248-2025 (1425 Sydney) Planning Commission Agenda Report – June 11, 2025 Hedges at up to eight feet in height, as measured from the “downhill side” on the subject property, will be perceived from the neighboring property as seven feet in height, given the difference in grade between the properties. Such hedges will largely screen views into the backyard, living room, and dining room areas of the subject property while maintaining natural sunlight and wider views for the adjacent property. Restraining the height of hedges to six feet would serve no apparent purpose and would have no significant effect on the soil conditions, landscape viability, or types of plants or vegetation that would be appropriate for an area with limited direct sunlight in the adjacent side setback area of the appellants’ property. As such, staff recommends that the Comm ission adopt a resolution denying the appeal and upholding the decision of the Director granting limited exception from standards for fences, walls, and hedges. A Draft Resolution for this purpose is provided as Attachment A to this report. 5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW Consideration of an exception to fence and wall height standards is exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15303 (New construction or conversion of small structures). 6.0 ALTERNATIVES 1. The Commission could decide to uphold the appeal and direct staff to prepare a resolution denying in part the Fence Height Exception application FNCE -0686-2024, regarding exceptions from standards for fences, walls, and hedges at 1425 Sydney Street, such that hedges in the east side setback of the subject property would remain subject to a six-foot height limit. 2. The Commission could continue consideration of the item to a future date, with relevant guidance to staff and the applicant. Continued consideration of the matter is unlikely to uncover additional considerations relevant to the action taken on the Fence Height Exception application that is the subject of this appeal. 7.0 ATTACHMENTS A - Draft Planning Commission Resolution (APPL-0248-2025) B - Exception Statement (FNCE-0686-2024) C - Project Plans (FNCE-0686-2024) D - Decision Letter (FNCE-0686-2024) E - Appeal Form (APPL-0248-2025) F - Appellant Email Correspondence (Craig and Allison Brandum) Page 31 of 309 Page 32 of 309 R ______ RESOLUTION NO. PC-XXXX-25 A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO, CALIFORNIA, DENYING AN APPEAL AND UPHOLDING THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR’S DECISION APPROVING THE FENCE HEIGHT EXCEPTION APPLICATION FNCE-0686-2024 REGARDING FENCES, WALLS, AND HEDGES AT 1425 SYDNEY STREET (APPL-0248-2025) WHEREAS, on March 24, 2025 the Community Development Director approved certain exceptions from standards applicable to fences, walls, and hedges under Fence Height Exception application FNCE-0686-2024, to accommodate fencing and hedges at 1425 Sydney Street; Lacey and Jake Minnick, applicants, and WHEREAS, On April 3, 2025, Craig and Allison Brandum filed an appeal of the Community Development Director’s decision to approve the Fence Height Exception application; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of San Luis Obispo conducted a public hearing in the Council Chamber of City Hall, 990 Palm Street, on June 11, 2025, to consider the appeal of the Community Development Director’s decision; and WHEREAS, notices of said public hearing were made at the time and in the manner required by law; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has duly considered all evidence, including the testimony of the applicant, interested parties, and evaluation and recommendations by staff presented at said hearing. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of San Luis Obispo as follows: SECTION 1. Findings. Based upon all the evidence, the Commission makes the following findings: 1. Granting the requested exceptions is consistent with the intent of the City’s Zoning Regulations and applicable General Plan policies. Consistent with Policy 2.3.11 of the Land Use Element of the City’s General Plan, the fencing and hedges depicted in plans provide privacy between adjacent dwellings and outdoor areas while maintaining an attractive residential setting by use of wood material and landscape plantings. Zoning Regulations Section 17.70.070 (H) provides for consideration of exceptions to standards for fence height to address issues related to privacy and other circumstances. 2. Granting the requested exceptions is consistent with the character of the neighborhood. Fencing proposed in plans is of wood materials and of a conventional design associated with residential development. Proposed hedges depicted in plans are “Pittosporum Silver Sheen,” or similar, appropriate for residential landscaping. Page 33 of 309 Resolution No. _____ (2025 Series) Page 2 3. As conditioned to limit the extent and excess height of fences and hedges, granting the requested exceptions provides adequate consideration of and measures to address any potential adverse effects on surrounding properties. Along the northeast side of the property, the height exception is limited by Condition #1 to the minimum extent (40 feet in length) and the minimum height necessary (eight feet, where the standard limit is six feet) to provide adequate privacy between windows and outdoor areas of adjacent dwellings where the adjacent property is at a higher grade. The limited extent and height minimize the impact to solar exposure enjoyed by the adjacent dwelling and, due to a small increase (one foot) in ground height between the properties, results in an apparent maximum hedge height of only seven feet, as perceived from the adjacent property. Along the southwest side of the property, the approved exception allows fencing up to seven feet in height (where six feet is the standard limit), however the combined height of the retaining wall and fence remains consistent with the nine-foot limitation set out in Zoning Regulations Section 17.70.070 (F)(3). 4. While the difference in ground height between adjacent properties and the elevated floor level of the adjacent residence to the northeast make strict adherence to standards for fence and wall height impractical, granting the requested exceptions conforms with the intent of the standards for fences, walls, and hedges set out in Zoning Regulations section 17.70.070. The exceptions achieve a balance between concerns for privacy and the need to provide privacy, security, and useable outdoor area of the occupants of the property. The exception applies to limited areas within the site, preserving the community appearance, visual image of the streetscape, and overall character of neighborhood, and does not unduly interfere with provision of adequate light and air to the site or to neighboring property. SECTION 2. Environmental Review. Consideration of an exception to fence and wall height standards is exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15303 (New construction or conversion of small structures). SECTION 3. Action. The Planning Commission does hereby deny the subject appeal filed by Craig and Allison Brandum, and upholds the Community Development Director’s decision to approve exceptions to standards for fences, walls, and hedges at 1425 Sydney Str eet, under Fence Height Exception application FNCE-0686-2024, based on the above findings, and subject to the following conditions: Planning 1. Limited exception. The exception granted by this approval is limited to the location, extent, and height of the fencing and hedges depicted in plans dated February 8, 2025, and submitted to the Community Development Department on February 10, 2025, except that excess height for hedges allowed under this approval shall be limited to the portion of the northeast side setback extending no more than 40 feet toward the street from the front wall of the garage depicted in plans, and the maximum height of hedges in this area may not exceed eight feet. This approval shall not be construed to allow excess hedge height outside of this limited area. The maximum height of fencing located on the retaining wall along the southwest side setback shall not exceed seven feet in height, as depicted in plans. Any significant modification to the height, placement, extent, or design of proposed fencing or hedges in the Page 34 of 309 Resolution No. _____ (2025 Series) Page 3 area of exception shall be subject to the review and approval of the Community Development Director. 2. Design and Materials. Fencing installed within the setback areas under this exception shall be of wood material and of a conventional design consistent with the residential character of the site and vicinity, as depicted in plans. Indemnification 3. The Owner/Applicant shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the City or its agents or officers and employees from any claim, action or proceeding against the City or its agents, officers or employees, to attack, set aside, void, or annul, in whole or in part, the City's approval of this project. The City shall promptly notify the Owner / Applicant of any such claim, action or proceeding upon being presented therewith, and the City shall cooperate fully in the defense of said claim. Upon motion of Commissioner Jorgensen, seconded by Commissioner Kahn, and on the following roll call vote: AYES: NOES: RECUSED: ABSENT: The foregoing resolution was adopted this 11th day of June, 2025. ____________________________________ Rachel Cohen, Secretary Planning Commission Page 35 of 309 Page 36 of 309 Fence Height Exception Application 1425 Sydney Street October 27,2024 The following information is provided based on City Code Section 17.109.030.A,which states that,for a Director ’s Action,it is the responsibility of the applicant to provide evidence in support of the findings required by Section 17.109.040. ●Section 17.109.040.A.1 -The proposed Fence Height Exception is consistent with the intent of Section 17.70.070 (Fences,Walls,and Hedges)because the project achieves an appropriate balance between providing privacy between living areas of neighboring homes and maintaining the visual image of the streetscape and overall character of the neighborhood by balancing the visual impact and scale with natural materials and screen plantings.See Sheets L1 and L2. ●Section 17.109.040.A.2 -The proposed Fence Height Exception is consistent with the character of the neighborhood and zone because the project is located in the R1 -Single Family Residential Zone,where nearly every property is fenced on a minimum of three sides,but in some cases,four. ●Section 17.109.040.A.3 -The proposed Fence Height Exception provides adequate consideration of any potential adverse effects on surrounding properties by balancing the visual impact and scale with natural materials and screen plantings to ensure the provision of adequate light,air,and public safety for residences on both sides.See Sheets L1 and L2. ●Section 17.70.070.H -While site characteristics,such as topographic differences between the subject property and neighboring properties to the northeast and southwest make strict adherence to the zoning regulations impractical or infeasible,the project nonetheless conforms to the intent of Section 17.70.070. Further,no public purpose would be served by strict adherence with the zoning regulations because the provisions for fence height exceptions are intended to provide flexibility for lots with unique characteristics,specifically including topography,and the location,height,and extent of the proposed fencing will not adversely affect the health, safety,or welfare of persons living or working in the vicinity,nor will the exception grant any special privileges to the property owners.

Dear Lacey and Jake Minnick: On March 24, 2025, I reviewed your Fence Height Exception application regarding height of fencing at 1425 Sydney Street. The exceptions would allow excess height for fencing located on a retaining wall in portions of the side setback area along the southwest side of the property, and would allow excess height for hedges along a portion of the side setback area along the northeast side of the property. After careful consideration, I have approved your request with modifications, based on findings and subject to the following conditions: Findings: 1. Granting the requested exceptions is consistent with the intent of the City’s Zoning Regulations and applicable General Plan policies. Consistent with Policy 2.3.11 of the Land Use Element of the City’s General Plan, the fencing and hedges depicted in plans provide privacy between adjacent dwellings and outdoor areas while maintaining an attractive residential setting by use of wood material and landscape plantings. Zoning Regulations Section 17.70.070 (H) provides for consideration of exceptions to standards for fence height to address issues related to privacy and other circumstances. 2. Granting the requested exceptions is consistent with the character of the neighborhood. Fencing proposed in plans is of wood materials and of a conventional design associated with residential development. Proposed hedges depicted in plans are “Pittosporum Silver Sheen,” or similar, appropriate for residential landscaping. 3. As conditioned to limit the extent and excess height of fences and hedges, granting the requested exceptions provides adequate consideration of and measures to address any potential adverse effects on surrounding properties. Along the northeast side of the property, the height exception is limited by Condition #1 to the minimum extent (40 feet in length) and the minimum height necessary (eight feet, where the standard limit is six feet) to provide adequate privacy between windows and outdoor areas of adjacent dwellings where the adjacent property is at a higher grade. The limited extent and height minimize the impact to solar exposure enjoyed by the adjacent dwelling and, due to a small increase (one foot) in ground height between the properties, results in an apparent maximum hedge height of only seven feet, as perceived from the adjacent property. Page 43 of 309 FNCE-0686-2024 (1425 Sydney) Page 2 Along the southwest side of the property, the approved exception allows fencing up to seven feet in height (where six feet is the standard limit), however the combined height of the retaining wall and fence remains consistent with the nine-foot limitation set out in Zoning Regulations Section 17.70.070 (F)(3). 4. While the difference in ground height between adjacent properties and the elevated floor level of the adjacent residence to the northeast make strict adherence to standards for fence and wall height impractical, granting the requested exceptions conforms with the intent of the standards for fences, walls, and hedges set out in Zoning Regulations section 17.70.070.

The exception applies to limited areas within the site, preserving the community appearance, visual image of the streetscape, and overall character of neighborhood, and does not unduly interfere with provision of adequate light and air to the site or to neighboring property. 5. Granting an exception to fence and wall height standards is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Fences and walls are small structures, as described in CEQA Guidelines Section 15303 (New construction or conversion of small structures). Conditions: Please note the project conditions of approval do not include mandatory code requirements. Code compliance will be verified during the plan check process, which may include additional requirements applicable to your project. Planning 1. Limited exception. The exception granted by this approval is limited to the location, extent, and height of the fencing and hedges depicted in plans dated February 8, 2025, and submitted to the Community Development Department on February 10, 2025, except that excess height for hedges allowed under this approval shall be limited to the portion of the northeast side setback extending no more than 40 feet toward the street from the front wall of the garage depicted in plans, and the maximum height of hedges in this area may not exceed eight feet. This approval shall not be construed to allow excess hedge height outside of this limited area. The maximum height of fencing located on the retaining wall along the southwest side setback shall not exceed seven feet in height, as depicted in plans. Any significant modification to the height, placement, extent, or design of proposed fencing or hedges in the area of exception shall be subject to the review and approval of the Community Development Director. 2. Design and Materials. Fencing installed within the setback areas under this exception shall be of wood material and of a conventional design consistent with the residential character of the site and vicinity, as depicted in plans. Indemnification 3. The Owner/Applicant shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the City or its agents or officers and employees from any claim, action or proceeding against the City or its Page 44 of 309 FNCE-0686-2024 (1425 Sydney) Page 3 agents, officers or employees, to attack, set aside, void, or annul, in whole or in part, the City's approval of this project. In the event that the City fails to promptly notify the Owner / Applicant of any such claim, action or proceeding, or that the City fails to cooperate fully in the defense of said claim, this condition shall thereafter be of no further force or effect. My action is final unless appealed within 10 calendar days of the date of the decision.

You may attach additional pages, if necessary. 03/24/2025 1425 Sydney Street SLO, 93401 FNCE-0686-2024 We are appealing the above noted application approved for an 8 foot hedge along the Northeast property of 1425 and 1475 Sydney Street. The owners already have a 6'6" fence (permitted?) that has caused shading of our exterior walls and soil. We have had to remove plants that died because of the fence blocking the sun, we have mushrooms growing in the soil, and mold growing at the bottom of the exterior wall. Permitting an 8 foot hedge would shade the lower portion of the windows of our home decreasing any natural light and decreasing the enjoyment of our home. Who would be responsible for making sure that hedge doesn't grow beyond the 8 feet? We currently have a tree in front of our office window that provides privacy to 1425 Sydney Street, they have chosen not to put up window coverings for their privacy. That is part of our appeal, if they want privacy put up window coverings. The other window that faces their property is above our stand alone bath tub, the bottom half of that window is obscured glass and provides privacy to both addresses. An 8 foot hedge would make the room darker and colder. The owners of 1425 were aware of the difference in slope of the the properties when they purchased their property. Now they are asking for permission to shade our property because they aren't happy with the difference in slope. WE don't want it to look like we live in a compound from our windows. As a property owner we have the right to enjoy our property without the intrusion of their proposed hedge. Page 48 of 309 From:Craig Brandum To:Planning Subject:APPEAL Date:Wednesday, April 2, 2025 6:27:45 PM This message is from an External Source. Use caution when deciding to open attachments, click links, or respond. Our neighbors have applied to put an 8 foot hedge between our homes. They have already installed a 6 foot 6 inch fence that has diminished our sunlight and because of that one of our trees will need to be removed. Which is actually helping in privacy for both us and them. We understand that they want privacy however their acts have limited our ability to have any views and sunlight. We have concerns that with any other obtrusion that our property will be compromised and the value will be diminished. As a property owner we have rights to enjoy ours without any intrusion.

Rationale for our Application 1.Establish privacy between our property and neighboring properties; and 2.Create an aesthetically appealing view along our driveway. City Code Section 17.70.070.H Scope of the Original Application 1.West Setback ■Maximum 7-Foot Wooden Fence on Top of a 2-Foot Wall 2.East Setback ■Maximum 9-Foot Hedge for a Distance of 65 Feet in Front of a 6-Foot Wooden Fence Site Topography Overlook Situation ●This photo was taken from the primary bathroom, and demonstrates the impact of a higher finish floor elevation. ●The overlook situation directly impacts privacy of our backyard and deck area that clearly cannot be mitigated by fencing of standard height. Scope of the Approved Application 1.West Setback - Approved as Requested ■Maximum 7-Foot Wooden Fence on Top of a 2-Foot Wall 2.East Setback - Limited Approval and Subject of Appeal ■Maximum 8-Foot Hedge for a Distance of 40 Feet in Front of a 6-Foot Wooden Fence City Code Section 17.70.070.A Story Poles ●Depicting a Hedge that is 8 Feet Tall and 40 Feet Long ●May 4, 2025 ●Hourly Photos from 8:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m. ●Camera Height at 6 Feet 6-Foot Fence 8-Foot Hedge Basis of the Limited Approval ●Our original request on the East side was for a 9-foot hedge for a distance of 65 feet. This same condition was approved for the West side, where topographical constraints are identical. ●However, staff indicated that, due to the numerous complaints from Allison and Craig Brandum, a compromise was required to limit the height and length of additional screening to the area in front of the windows at 1475 Sydney Street. ●However, the correspondence submitted by Allison and Craig Brandum regarding those windows is misleading and contradictory. Primary Bathroom Window ●Primary bathroom has a double-hung window that operates in two directions. ●When the window is opened from the bottom, the privacy is eliminated. ●The window is consistently opened from the bottom, which has been documented on numerous occasions. Primary Bathroom Window ●The 8-foot hedge only extends up approximately 25% of the bottom (opaque) pane of glass. ●E-Mail (April 2, 2024): ○“...their acts have limited our ability to have any views and sunlight.” ●Views of the the skyline and distant trees from the upper pane of glass will never be affected. Office Room Window ●Appeal Form (April 3, 2024): ○“We currently have a tree in front of our office window that provides privacy to 1425 Sydney Street.” ●E-Mail (April 2, 2024): ○“They have already installed a 6 foot 6 inch fence that has diminished our sunlight and because of that one of our trees will need to be removed.” Conclusion and Request Accept the recommendation by staff to: ●Deny the appeal (APPL-0248-2025) by Allison and Craig Brandum, and ●Uphold the prior decision of the Community Development Director to approve our Fence Height Exception Application (FNCE-0686-2024) on the basis that it is consistent with City Code Section 17.70.070. - �r IT 7P" W + * YIt '.1. 10 A Back to Map -14 ,bo'a�r'd`'hortcuts 2025 Terms u w L a problem R 1425 Sydney Street, O 16 LL7 _ +� 44 O C/ 1 Find and manage all your projects in Google Earth.

Shade, natural light, and views. The appellants also raise concern with additional shading, decreased natural light, and compromised views that taller hedges might cause at the bedroom and bathroom windows on the southwest wall of their home. Staff notes that the hedge height allowed under the approved exception is eight feet from the "downhill side" (the subject property, at 1425 Sydney). Because of the differential in grade between the properties, the hedges, at that maximum height, would be perceived as seven feet in height from the appellants' property. The bedroom windows on this side of the home appear to be situated about 6 inches above the top of the fence line, indicating that hedges at the approved height may rise up to about 1 '/2 feet above the bottom of the windowsas seen from inside the appellants' h , ome.
