Monte Vista fence approved; owner must lower final posts to meet 4‑foot guideline
The Compliance and Technical Advisory Board approved a wrought‑iron fence at 133 West Craig in the Monte Vista Historic District on March 21 but required the owner to lower the fence to match the board’s 4‑foot front‑yard guideline and to pay a $500 post‑work application fee.

Applicant representative David Dilley said the property is unusual in the neighborhood — a three‑story building on an elevated lot — and that the owner installed the fence after a rise in thefts and safety concerns. He apologized for the hastiness of construction and provided examples of nearby properties that include taller wrought‑iron fences.

Staff recommended approval with stipulations that the fence be lowered to 4 feet, the $500 post‑work application fee be paid, and that the property owner obtain the required fencing permit from Development Services. The board voted to accept staff’s recommendation and staff will assist the owner with next steps.
