Residential (R-1 or R-2), Town House (R-3), and Patio Home (R-4) districts. No fence shall cross a drainage easement in any district. Houses which front on more than one street may have a fence exceeding four feet in height in the side yard which fronts on a street provided that the fence does not block the view of traffic for the adjacent property when pulling onto the street. .3 Chain Link, Barbed-Wire, or Other Wire Fences Prohibited in Any District: The erection of a chain link (also referred to as a "Cyclone" fence), barbed-wire or other wire fences shall be prohibited in ANY district. However, plastic coated (not painted) black, brown or green chain link fences may be approved by the Mayor and Board of Aldermen in lieu of wooden fencing provided appropriate landscaping is planted on both sides of the fence and the fence would not be out of character with the surrounding area. The burden of proof that the chain link fence would be better suited for the proposed commercial or residential development is on the applicant. .4 Parking and Storage of Vehicles Requiring Licenses and State Inspection Stickers: Vehicles, boats, or trailers of any kind or type which require licenses or State inspection stickers, but are without current license plates or do not have current State inspection stickers affixed to the vehicle or trailer, shall not be parked or stored on any residentially zoned property other than in completely enclosed buildings, nor shall such vehicles be parked on public streets. .5 Parking of Vehicles That Are Deemed to Constitute a Hazard: Any vehicle that constitutes a hazard in the opinion of an officer of the Madison Police Department or the Zoning Administrator shall not be parked on a residentially-zoned or commercially-zoned public street. If a hazard is noted by the Zoning Administrator, he/she will file a complaint with the Madison Police Department. If a police officer is unable to contact the owner of a vehicle deemed to constitute a safety hazard, and an immediate hazard exists, the officer shall be authorized to order the removal of such vehicle.
