§ 17.06.390. Fenced recreational enclosures.

If fencing is necessary for incidental recreational uses, such as tennis and paddle ball, which is higher than permitted under Sections 17.06.340 through 17.06.430, a special use permit must be obtained. A maximum twelve foot high fence enclosure for recreational uses may be permitted by special use permit; provided, that the fence does not extend into the front yard or a street side yard and does not extend closer than ten feet to any other property line. The planning commission shall make the following findings in granting the permits:

A.

That the proposed use, enclosure and appurtenant structures will not adversely affect the neighboring properties, block any view or constitute a nuisance;

B.

That the granting of the permit meets the criteria for the issuance of a special use permit, as defined in Chapter 17.70 of this code;

C.

That the fencing is capable of admitting at least ninety percent light and air to pass through the fencing.
