The petitioner Nick Loiacono explained that he lives on a corner lot adjacent to a park and his reason for seeking the variation was due to the lack of privacy and security on his property. He explained that children walk through his yard, people cut through his yard to go to the park, especially when events such as soccer games are taking place, and people walk their dogs in his yard and allow them to defecate on the lawn. Mr. Loiacono also explained that his deck is located along the side of the house and the fence would provide privacy while the deck was in use. Mr. Kaplan asked why the fence was starting at the side of the house as opposed to starting at the front corner of the deck. Mr. Loiacono explained that he chose a location that would not interfere with a gate for the fence or the stairs leading to the deck. Mr. Herrick asked if he would agree to starting the fence at the corner of the deck. Mr. Loiacono said that would be fine. Jim Wassell who lives next to the petitioner asked about the exact location of the fence and if there would be a section of fence installed adjacent to his property. Mr. Loiacono explained that a small section would be installed between their houses. Michelle Herzau of 1839 Longboat inquired about whether or not the fence would cause vision problem for the public and this was addressed by the Board members who explained that no line of sight problems would be created. A motion was made by Mr. Kaplan to approve the variation with the stipulation that the fence start at the rear of the garage which is the start of the deck.
