Mr. Soares indicated that the driveway will <br /> no longer be used for parking and the gates will be used as a fence. <br /> Council Member Glaze indicated that the driveway area cannot be enclosed <br /> because the Appellant needs to provide two parking spaces on the property <br /> as part of his room addition conditions. Mr. Faria indicated that the <br /> Applicant had been advised by City staff that he could provide these parking <br /> spaces in the sideyard where the recreation vehicle was parked. <br /> In answer to Mayor Karp's question regarding removal of the gates in front <br /> of the driveway, Mr. Soares indicated his willingness to remove them. <br /> Council Member Santos asked if the Applicant would agree to remove the spikes <br /> on the fence and the fence across the driveway.

Mr. Soares indicated that <br /> the fence is 3'6" and the gates are 4' . Gaye Quinn indicated that staff's <br /> measurements were 4'9" for the gates and 4' for the fence. <br /> Discussion was held as to how the overall height of the fence could be <br /> reduced.
