Mr. Tyler and Mr. Ulmer had talked about putting a fence all the way out to his property line, in between Mr.
Tyler's carport and Mr. Ulmer's house. Mr. Ulmer explained his point of view for the purpose of the fence
which it would cut down the noise coming from Mr. Tyler's drive, since Mr. Utmer's bedroom is on that
corner of the house. The distance between the two house is 5 ft. Between the two parties, they do not have any
problems with this. Mr. Tyler would not have to have a variance to put up a fence, but Mr. Ulmer would.
Since that is Mr, Tyler's property. They agreed on a 6 ft fence all the way across to his property line or to
a certain point and then eventually drop it down to 3 ft. The staffhas no problem with this. Ronnie Miller made
motion to approve variance, Cezar Cervantez seconded. Motion carried 4-0.
