The proposed fence is near the center of the parcel within the side yard area of the property at 225 SW 29th St (APN 1253800040) to securely separate the northern tenant space of the building from the southern tenant space (Exhibit 2). Access to the southern space would remain off of SW 34th St and access to the northern tenant space would remain via SW 29th St through the abutting property (parcel no. 1253800090) that is also owned by LBA Realty | LBA Logistics. The property is located within the Heavy Industrial Zone (IH) and is developed with a warehouse facility. The fence would be constructed outside of the clear vision area and parking stalls designated for each tenant’s side of the building are to be maintained. The design and materials of the fence are proposed to match the existing chain link fence at the perimeter of the commercial property as well as existing security gates and will not detract from the visual quality of the environment (Exhibit 4). Analysis: City staff agrees with the applicant's justification (Exhibit 4) for barbed wire and concurs that the proposed fence strikes an appropriate balance between preserving private space and protecting the safety of the tenants while not detracting from the visual characteristics of the neighborhood. Therefore, staff recommends approval of this Special Fence Permit request as submitted.
