View from 455 Sycamore Roads front door View from neighbor's rear sliding glass door Staff would like to note that additional pictures from the subject property and neighbor's property can be found in Exhibit E. The neighbor feels that there are other locations on the property that are more appropriate for the water tank. The tank can be seen from their front driveway, inside there home from the window next to the front door (Exhibit E), and from a portion of their rear yard (as shown from the upper right hand picture). Applicant Staff conducted a site visit to the subject property on February 19, 2008 to assess the application. During this visit, the applicant noted that she would be willing to do the following in order to appease the neighbors: ^ Paint the tank a different color; ^ Add lower shrubs/landscaping between the redwood trees to further screen the tank, so long as it was ashrub/plant that the horses would not eat, thus not having to continuously replace; ^ Replace the existing 5-foot rear yard deer fencing with taller solid fencing. Staff notes that this is not encouraged in the North Sycamore Specific Plan, thus, may require a Specific Plan amendment; and/or ^ Build a screening wall in front of the tank.
