John Slates, Attorney for Highland Homes addressed the Commission. Mr. Slates explained
why Highland was requesting a waiver to the fence ordinance #99-01, specifically referring to
section 14.A. Waivers and Appeals, "A waiver may be authorized as will not be contrary to the
public interest, where, owing to special conditions, the literal enforcement of the provisions of
this Ordinance will result in unnecessary hardship, so that the spirit of this Ordinance shall be
observed and substantial justice done." Mr. Slates explained how the fences got to be wrongly
positioned, what hardships (to both residents and builder) would be incurred and how his clients
feel a waiver would be in keeping with the spirit of the ordinance.

concerns regarding the actions of the builder and fence contractor and warned the builder that
any further incidences of fence construction without permits or violation of the fence ordinance
by improperly locating fences, may result in penalties as provided in the ordinance for such
conditions. Commissioner Cotton moved to make a recommendation to the Council to waive the
requirements of the fence ordinance for the 5 properties represented by Highland Homes.
Commissioner Reed seconded; motion passed unanimously.

this request to the next regular meeting. Commissioner Gilliland seconded; motion passed
