The property owner at 529 Fisk Ave. received permission to build a taller fence in part of the front yard along N. 6th Street. The commission said the lot layout and limited usable yard space created a hardship, and staff found the fence would still leave a setback from the sidewalk and not harm neighborhood character. Three nearby residents submitted written support, and no one spoke against the request.
