Century Historic Board Postpones Fence Request, Wants Rules Changed
July 11, 2018
The Century Historic Preservation Board tabled action Tuesday on a local man’s request to construct a privacy fence and a storage shed. Instead, the board wants to see the town change restrictions.
Felic Fussner filed an application for development to construct an 8-foot privacy fence in the side and rear yard of a home and a storage shed in the 400 block of Front Street, in the Alger-Sullivan Lumber Company Residential Historic District. He also applied to construct a 4-foot picket fence in the front yard.
The board recommended that the town’s fence ordinance be amended by the town council to allow only wood fences in the historic historic district while reducing the side and rear fence allowable height from eight to six feet. The board also wants to see a restriction on using freight containers as storage buildings in the historic district.
Any consideration by the town council will come at a future meeting.

Seams silly to allow only wood when an era appropriate ornate iron fence if you can afford it would be nicer? maybe i’m wrong but why tie your hands?
