LDC 6.8.6.K(5) Buffers

CODE states E-Type buffer shall consist of a five-foot wide landscape strip without a buffer wall. The buffer shall contain at least four shade trees for every 100 lineal feet or fractional part thereof. Shrubs shall be planted in a double-staggered row and be capable of reaching a maintained height of six feet within three years. Groundcovers and/or turfgrass shall not be used in this buffer.

APPLICANT - We are requesting a waiver to allow for the Type 'E' buffer along the north property boundary to utilize a fence in lieu of vegetation. The buffer will remain 20' width. The existing vegetation along the north property boundary within the adjacent Liberty Village residential subdivision is mature and will not allow for the buffer to adequately grow as intended.  Additionally, we request the fence to continue within the Type 'A' buffer on the property line.  The adjacent storage facility currently utilizes a fence on their property boundary so the landscaping will not be a benefit to that parcel.
