He said Bill No. 8094 deletes the requirement that the finished side of a fence face the property exterior, while Bill No. 8095 requires that the finished side of a fence face outward only if on a public street. Mr. Wagner said when the fence ordinance was adopted sane years ago, many residents supported it because it seemed to rectify the exparrlin:J problem of unsightly fences facin;J public streets. He said the City has a mnnber of ordinances that regulate streetside structures, yards, etc., but the fence restrictions created a chaos of canplaints from people who saw no reason for the linri.ts on fences between neighbors or facing alleys. He felt Bill No. 8095 was a good canpranise. Mrs. Schuman said she understood Mr. Wagner's viev.r, but felt the requirement was discrinri.nato:ry am the city could not regulate it. Mayor Majerus noted a letter from a citizen who favored Bill No. 8094. Mr. Adams favored Bill No. 8094 because it allows the irxiividual freedom to detennine how he wants to build his fence.
