AM-25-01 — Amendment to Chapter 7, Section 7-02-04 of the Unified Land Development Code to allow residential properties both inside and outside of subdivisions to submit front-yard fence requests in Henry County, GA

This amendment would allow residential properties within subdivisions to request front-yard fencing approval, a change from the current code that only permits front-yard fences in RA-zoned districts and non-subdivision residential areas. The proposal was initiated after a property owner's fence in a subdivision was deemed non-compliant, and the applicant argues current code enforcement is inconsistent and potentially unconstitutional, while opponents contend front-yard fences would fragment neighborhood aesthetics and cohesion.
