Project Narrative
The owner (James Dixon) of the property listed above desires to replace an existing 39” tall broken fence
with a newer, taller fence, in the same location.
The desired height to ensure that domestic animals (dogs) are contained is 60”. This is more than the
allowed 48” fence height for a secondary front yard setback.
The height of 60 inches is desired due to the slope of the property. The property adjacent to 133rd AVE
SE is sloped near the mid-point of the fence, which renders the current fence height (~39”) unsuitable
for containing dogs. (Please see attached pictures)
The proposed fence will be constructed from cedar fencing material and painted/stained to be
aesthetically appealing and coordinate with the color of the house and remaining fence.
The additional height of the proposed fence will not provide any hazard to traffic. It will provide
enhanced security and privacy for residents of the property, and reduce the likelihood of unintentional
pet escapes. As a responsible citizen and pet owner, these changes will enhance community property
value, security and safety.
I recommend that it is in the interest of the City of Renton to approve submitted permit plans.
See attached Neighborhood Map, Site Plan and Elevation rendering.
Please contact with any further questions.
Sincerely
James Dixon
