In the C-RS (Rural Service Commercial) and C-X (Crossroads Commercial) electrified security fencing will be permitted subject to Director's Review as permitted by Development Title 9-1022.6, which was discussed as part of the existing ordinance above. Electrified security fencing is not proposed to be permitted in other commercial zones (C-FS (Freeway Service Commercial], C-N[Neighborhood Commercial], C-O [Office Commercial], C-L ILimited Commercial], and C-R[Recreation Commercial]). 4. The addition of required exterior fencing and setbacks for electrified fencing that are related to the type of fencing used for the protective barrier. All new electrified fences must be installed behind a protective barrier consisting of, at minimum, an open fence, and the electrified security fence must be setback a minimum twelve (12) inches from the protective barrier. If the protective barrier consists of fencing with open sections greater than three (3) inches in diameter, the setback is increased to three (3) feet. 5. The removal of current restrictions on electrified security fencing in the industrial zones, which prohibit electrified fencing from areas adjacent to residential areas. This requirement has been replaced by the addition of required protective barriers-consisting of solid= fencing when an electrified security fence is proposed next to any residentially planned,or residentially developed parcel. A protective barrier consisting of a minimum six (6) foot tall solid fence will be required when an electrified security fence is proposed next to any residentially planned, or residentially developed parcel. This applies to the installation of electrified fencing in all zones, and will mitigate for land use compatibility concerns as the fence will provide a physical barrier between any residence, or planned residential area, and electrified fencing. 6. The addition of restrictions regarding the type of electrified fencing and the requirement of signs marking the electrified-fencing. This text has not been modified from the original application heard in 2017. Signs must be placed at gates, and in thirty (30) foot intervals. Signs must include a written warning or commonly recognized symbols for shock and he a minimum of nine (9) inches by twelve (12) inches. 7. Increasing the permitted height for fencing for electrified fencing, which would allow for electrified security fencing to exceed the current height restrictions by two (2)feet, and result in a maximum height for electrified fencing of nine (9)to ten (10)feet depending on zone requirements. An electrified security fence will be permitted to exceed standard fence regulations by a maximum of two (2) feet, not to exceed ten (10) feet in total height. The Development Title allows for other types of security fencing(i.e., barbed wire) to be placed on top of standard fencing, and add up to an additional two(2) feet in height in commercial and industrial zones. This proposed text will allow the same provision for electrified security fencing. The requirements added in the revised text have mitigate concerns regarding potential safety and land use compatibility. As a result, the Community Development Department recommends approval of the Text Amendment application, as proposed. San Joaquin County PA-1700084\Electric Guard Dog, LLC Community Development Page 5
