To whom it may concern:
This letter is a response to a notice of public hearing for Case
File AV 88-2 concerning applicants She1 and Karen Berman and published July 8, 1988.
We would like this letter to be considered officially our express opinion concerning the appeal of the denial to allow a six foot high fence within the setback on the property at 4375 Stanford
Street in Carlsbad, which is officially described as Lot 189 of
Carlsbad Tract 84-35 Unit 2 according to Map 11672 on file with the
County Recorder of San Diego.
Since we own property at and reside in 4374 Stanford Street which is just across the street from the disputed property, we feel that
we are due our opinion on the fence concerned.
We would like to point out that upon receiving the original notice
that the applicants were asking to build the fence, we did not
respond since at the time the fence was under construction and we did not see any problems with it.
Since then the fence has been completed. It was painted a color complimentary to the property and surrounding neighborhood. It
also has been extensively landscaped on the street side. As such,
we feel that it is an enhancement to the neighborhood and to our
view. Since the house on the property in question faces sideways and not towards the street, the fence in our opinion provides a natural delineation of their property.
As such, we would like to cast our vote to the City Council to allow the fence to remain as is.
