RECOMMENDATION Introduce the attached draft ordinance approving Case PUD-99-1-4M subject to the conditions of approval recommended by the Planning Commission and staff as shown in Attachment 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENT The project consists of private development associated with private fence construction and, therefore, will have no fiscal impact on the City.

The applicants installed the solid fencing for privacy reasons without the appropriate Planning review.
