In a recent government meeting, officials reviewed a request to install a six-foot metal fence along the south side of a property located at 48100 Goodman Street. The proposal is subject to local regulations outlined in section 5351, which stipulates that fences in front yard areas must be at least 50% open and constructed from treated wood, decorative metal, or cast iron, with a maximum height of 42 inches.

These regulations aim to maintain a visually appealing and cohesive streetscape while balancing privacy and security needs. The design requirements for fences are intended to enhance visibility for both pedestrians and drivers, thereby reducing potential safety hazards such as blind spots.

The applicant has proposed the metal fence to effectively conceal a hut that will serve as the central hub for the town's broadband network. This new installation will connect to the existing south fence along the property line and is designed to match the current perimeter fencing on the site. The discussions highlighted the importance of adhering to local guidelines to ensure that the community's aesthetic and safety standards are upheld.
