NOTICE OF DECISION
V 07-11
MICHAEL L. FRUTIGER
APPLICATION: Request by Michael L. Frutiger for an Administrative Variance to
allow construction of a -,;, foot high fence in a vision clearance area whore
three feet in height is allowed and a variance to construct said fence on the
property line in a corner side yard where a two foot setback is required. The
property is zoned R-25 (Multi-family Residential, 25 units/acre) and is
located at 11716 SW Swendon Loop.
DECISION: Notice is hereby given that the Planning Director for the City of
'Tigard has APPROVED the above appli-ation subject to certain conditions . The
findings and conclusions in which the Director based his decision are as noted
below.
A. FTNDING OF FACT
1. Background
No previous land use applications have been reviewed by the Planning
Division for the subject property .
2. Vicinity Information
Properties to the north, west arid south are also zoned R-25 but have
been developed with single family residences. Properties to the east
are zoned R-7 (Single Family Residenti&l, 7 units/acre) and R•-12(PP)
(Multi-family Residential, 12 units/acre,, Planned Development) .
3 , Site Information and Proposal Description
1-he property is located on SW Swendon Loop and is bordered by SW
Feiring Lane along the corner side yard and SW 135th Avenuc along the
rear property ) ine. It is therefore surrounded on three sides by
public right-of--idays. There is a single family residence on the
property . Approximately 15 feet of 135th Avenue right-of'-way buffers
the property in the rear. A six foot high fence has been erected by
the developer along the rear property line which extends into the
vision clearance area at a height of six feet. The applicant wishes
to extend this fence to and along the corner side yard property line
for a distance of 5o feet. The purpose of vision clearance areas is
to ensure proper site distances at intersections in order to reduce
the hazard from vehicular turning movements .
A cursory check of utilities indicate, that a water line and storm
drainage crosses the opposite !side of SW Feiring Lane; tha+ � sewer
line lies under the 15 foot area of dedicated right-of-way and another
enters the property perpendicular- from SW Swendon Loop and that a gas
line lies under the sidewalk on SW Fairing Lane adjacent to the
property.
Relocation of the fence to the property line along SW Feiring Lane,
would expand the applicant's usable corner, side yard.

4. Agency and NPO Comments
The City Building Division has reviewed the proposal and has the
following comments:
It appears that traffic vision will not be compromised in this
instance; however, it is w,7 ^isome that a. precedent could be set
that would compromise the virion clearance ordinance.
Portland General Electric Company has connnFnted that the applicant
should call the following numbers for utili:.y line locations if the
fence is to be erected without a two foot setback in the corner side
yard.
PGE: 643--54'14
GTE! 629-•902.5
CATV: 644-31R8
Gas Co. : 220-2415
Water District: 639-1554
The Engineering Division has reviewed the proposal. and has the
following comments:
The existing non-graded earn, as well as call weeds and grass
along SW 135th need to be cleared to assist motorist visibility;
the applicant's proposed fence is located satisfactorily based on
the traffic speed of 40 mph for the current state of development
of SW 135th and based on the estimated future location of curb
sight lines. (The curb sight distance is measured at 10 feet for
each one foot of speed -- thus the curb sight distance in a 40 mph
speed zone would be 400 feet in each direction. )
No other comments were received.
B. ANALYSIS AND CONkLUSION
Section 18. 134 ,050 sots forth th? criteria for granting a variance by
the Director. The following criteria must be satisfied:
1 . The proposed variance will not be materially detrimental to the
purposes of this Code, be in conflict with the policies of the
Comprehensive Plan, to any other applicable policies and standards,
and to other properties in the same zoning district or, vicinity.
2. There are special circumstances that exist which are peculiar to the
lot size or shape, topography or other circumstances over which the
applicant has no control, and which are not applicable to other
properties in the same zoning district;
3 . The use proposed will be the same as permitted under this Code and
City standards will be maintained to the grea4-.est extent that is
reasonably possible, while permitting some economic use of the land;
4. Existing physical and natural systems, such as but not limited to
traffic, drainage, dramatic land forms or parks will not be adversely
affected any more than would occur if the development were located as
specified in the Code; and
NOTICE OF DECISION - V 87-11 - FRUTIGER - PAGE 2
5. The hardship is not self-imposed and the variance requested is the
minimum variance which would alleviate the hardship.
The proposed variance to relocate the fence to the corner side yard
property line will not be materially detrimental to the purposes of this
Code, be in conflict with the Comprehensive Plan, to other applicable
policies and to othor properties in the sane zoning district. The purpose
of the two foot setback for fences and w-:ills in corner side yards is to
ensure that the fence or wall does not interfere with underground utility
lines.
The fact that. ..re lot is bordered on three sides by public streets can be
corsidered a special circumstance peculiar to this lot and is not
generally applicable to other properties in the same zoning district. The
use proposed will maintain City standards to the greatest extent possible
while permitting an economic use of the land and existing natural systems
w'.11 not be adversely affected. Th,e applicant should be aware that the
utility companies may have to remove the fence shOUld underground utility
linea be in need of repair.
Section 18 . 102.020 of the CommOnity Development Code requires that a clear
vision area shall contain no vehicle, hedge, planting, fence, wall
structure or ter.porary or permanent obstruction (except for an occasional
utility pole, or tree) exceeding 3 feet in height, measured from the top of
the curb crept: that trees exceeding this height may be located in this
area provided all branches below R feei are removed.
Vision clearance areas for the subject property are at the southwest and
southeast corners of the property. A typical vision clearance area for a
corner lot facing a public street would appear as follows:
Corner Lot
a
r
re
0
�.- lo'--►� P,ight-of-Way
The Engineering Division has suggested removal of the non- graded earth,
grass and tall weeds along the SW 135th property line to improve the sight
distance.
Therefore, staff finds that the fence will not interfere with utility
lines, that the site dlstanr_e requirements set forth by the Engineering
Division can be met and that the intent of vision clearance requirements
--an still be met.
