DISCUSSION ARB-183 White Vinyl Fences Discussion Mr. Newell introduced the discussion regarding white vinyl fences, per the Board’s request. Mr. Newell advised the Board of the research from other municipalities with no other municipality having restrictions on the color of fences. Mr. Newell informed the Board that Wellington had 978 code cases between 2017 and 2018 that include Homeowner Association Communities. Mr. Newell presented the current permitted fence types. It was pointed out that wood fences are allowed to be painted. The restriction on white fencing was only for PVC fences. A motion was made by William Klein, seconded by Tom Wenham, to allow the white vinyl/PVC fencing to be used on residential lots that are not on major thoroughfares or the associated side street with all the existing landscaping requirements stay in place. Ron Shamash asked to amend to include any new development not to have any PVC fencing around the development. Mr. Klein accepted the amendment to his motion. Mr. Klein withdrew his motion. A motion was made by William Klein, seconded by Tom Wenham, to permit the use of white vinyl/PVC fencing to be used on residential application with the current landscape guide for fences that are not on major thoroughfares or the associated side streets and white PVC fences will be continued to be prohibited on any developments around the perimeter. The motion failed by a vote of (2-5), with Ron Shamash, Miguel Alonso, Stacy Somers, Ryan Mishkin and Roger Grave de Peralta dissenting. X. COMMENTS FROM THE PUBLIC XI. COMMENTS FROM STAFF XII.
