3. Docket No. 07030008 ADLS Amend: Midwest ISO - Security Fence
The applicant seeks approval for the construction of perimeter fencing and additional
landscaping related to the fence.
The site is located at 701 City Center Drive and is zoned M3/Industrial Park.
Filed by Fred Simmons of Simmons Architects, LLC for Midwest ISO.
The applicant seeks to install security fencing around the Midwest ISO property ( existing office).
See the packet for full details.
Due to the need to increase site security, the petitioner wishes to install an fence around the
majority of the their existing office, with gates and checkpoints at access points. Given the
highly visible nature of this site, the Department felt that the review of this fence (color,
materials) was necessary. While we want to accommodate Midwest ISO needs, we also want the
best possible appearance and function for the surrounding sites.
Emergency Services, Engineering, and the Urban Forester have reviewed this plan, and have no
major issues with it moving forward. All nuances ofthe plan in regards to each ofthese
departments will be addressed by the applicant directly to those departments. .
The Department recommends approval after any issues are discussed and resolved.
