1. The enclosure is constructed using the same materials, design, and finish as the existing fence.

2.  The enclosure must be placed in an area as near to the existing side fence as possible.

3.  The enclosure fence must be constructed picket side out where visible from any street.

4.  Any enclosure not meeting these provisions will be removed at the owner’s expense upon written notification.
