________________________________________________________________________________
Executive Summary
The purpose of this staff report is to request action by the Board of Adjustment on an application
submitted by Michael Bolsinger, Trustee of the MTB Family Trust, for a two-foot (2') variance from the maximum permitted fence height of six-feet (6') on a single-family residential property zoned R-1.
The subject property is addressed as 249 S Larkspur Drive, also known as Lot 51 Michael's
2nd Addition to Castle Rock.
The applicant proposes to construct a portion of a backyard fence at a height of eight feet (8').
The Municipal Code limits residential fence height to six-feet (6'); therefore, a two-foot (2') variance
is required. The applicant has submitted a site plan identifying the location of the proposed fence and
the portion requiring the variance.
According to the application, the additional fence height is requested to improve privacy and increase
the enjoyment of the backyard.
