City of Lackawanna Department of Development / Code Enforcement 714 Ridge Road — Room 309 / Room 311 Lackawanna, NY 14218 Tel: (716) 827-6421 Fax: (716) 827-1866 April 23, 2026 Dear Zoning Board of Appeals, Included in your packet are two (2) agenda items for the same property owner, Araif Ali. He is the owner of 14, 20, and 28 West Elmview Avenue. He is on the April 29, 2026 Zoning agenda to request a variance for an 8ft tall privacy fence in the rear of the properties, at 14 and 28 West Elmview. On July 25, 2023 the property owner was in front of the Zoning Board for the same request and was granted approval at that time. The property owner did not move forward with the 8ft tall fence and the approval was near expiration. The property owner, through their attorney, discussed a potential six (6) month extension with Code Enforcement on January 4, 2024. A six (6) month extension was granted, and the property owner did not commence erecting the 8ft tall fence at either property within that time frame either. The property owner approached the city in 2026 requesting a permit to erect the 8ft tall fencing at both properties, but was told the approval expired. This is why the applicant is in front of you. Thank you, Department of Development Department of Development & Code Enforcement
