Increasing the height at which a building permit is required to construct a fence from six to <br /> seven feet. <br /> 2. Elimination of the language limiting swimming pools to be completely enclosed with an opaque <br /> chain-link or equivalent fence at least four feet high with a lockable gate. <br /> 3. Addition of language in the footnotes of the tables in sections 30-1007, 30-1042, & 30-1582 <br /> allowing fencing and automatic pool covers as an allowed barrier. <br /> Due to the cost to publish the ordinance, staff has prepared a summary of the ordinance for adoption via <br /> the attached resolution. The resolution fulfills all legal publication requirements as completely as if the <br /> entire ordinance had been published. <br /> The city attorney has reviewed the summary. <br /> Financial Impact <br /> Adopting the resolution for summary publication of the ordinance will save the city on publication costs. <br /> Attachments <br /> ■ Resolution <br /> POWERED 6T <br /> AR <br />
