MANSON, DIRECTOR Laws and regulations in our society are, at times, difficult to understand and fully comprehend. This is true of zoning ordinances, which are laws intended to protect and govern the many different uses of land in Spokane County. It is my responsibility, as the Code Coordinator, when the situation arises, to help resolve conflicts involving the Spokane County Zoning Ordinance. This office has received reports regarding a fence or privacy screen on your property, located at E. 12116 Grace Spokane County, parcel number 09541-0956. This property is zoned Agricultural. Our district inspector reports you are constructing a privacy screen approximately 5 1/2 feet tall onto the front of your residence located at E. 12116 Grace. It should be noted that this structure encroaches into the required front yard setback area and therefore is in violation of Section 4.17.040 of the Spokane County Zoning Ordinance. Fences within the front yard setback area cannot exceed thirty-six (36) inches in height. It is the intent of this letter to advise you of an apparent zoning violation and to request compliance within a suitable time frame. Accordingly, we are of the opinion that since you have now been informed of the requirements of the Spokane County Zoning Ordinance, a period of 30 days, beginning with the date of this letter, should be sufficient time in which to bring your property into compliance by either removing the screen or by constructing the screen three (3) feet in height. Do not hesitate to act upon this important matter, since a violation of the Spokane County Zoning Ordinance is a misdemeanor and does carry a penalty. As an alternative to bringing your fence into compliance with the Spokane County Zoning Ordinance, you can apply for a Waiver of Violation, which, if granted, might allow you to keep your fence at its present height in its present location, or you may apply for an one (1) foot administrative exception which would allow a fence to be four (4) feet in height. ,Please contact the Spokane County Planning NORTH 811 ,JEFFERSON SPOKANE, WASHINGTON 99260.0050 TELEPHONE (509),456-3675 Kerry Henleason June 5, 1985 Second Page Department at 456-2205 for further information concerning these options. If the above mentioned time frame is insufficient, please contact this office within 7 days in order that an equitable time frame might be established in which your property will be brought into compliance with the ordinance requirements. If you wish to discuss these findings, have any questions, or believe these allegations to be unfounded, please feel free to contact me at 456-3675.
