6. That the variance, if granted, is the minimum variance that will afford relief and is the <br />least modification possible of the provisions of Title 17 of the Louisville Municipal Code <br />that are in question. With conditions, Staff finds that this criterion is met. The request <br />to enclose an approximately 45-foot by 140-foot area with privacy fencing would <br />provide a very large enclosure relative to what other typical lots would have enclosed in <br />their back yard. Staff believes that it would be appropriate to move the fence back 10 <br />feet, and reduce its length along the street to 100 feet. That will reduce the visual <br />impact of the fence and provide a reasonable amount of outdoor privacy. Moving the <br />fence back will also allow existing vegetation on the property to screen views of the <br />fence from the road. <br />STAFF RECOMMENDATION: <br />Staff finds that all applicable variance criteria have been met. Staff is recommending approval <br />of the request for a variance to allow a six-foot solid privacy fencing in the front yard setback <br />with two conditions: \ (� _1 <br />�,, II���� ��� �� �� ��i r a�4 r'o �i :nCd <br />�(�1.
