The fence looks wonderful i totally agree why the couple have put a fence up that high. The person who has complained must have nothing better To do. Good LuckHelen Dahl (Leeds, 2021-04-27)

It's under 6ft which is what the law states. You can't just change the goalposts, it's unfair. The fence looks lovely and it's helping to keep crime down which in a knock on effect will eventually help bring down everyone's car insurance in the area.Danika Fox (Leeds, 2021-04-27)

Hi they can have a fence upto 6ftAs you can see the neighbor's hedges are higher than the fence this is so wrong when you try to better your property and make it safer and look better

Because the law is clear, people need to stay out of other people business, the fence was done to prevent crime so surely the council would support this for its local residentshttps://democracy.leeds.gov.uk/documents/s59208/HH%20Design%20Guide%20Consultation%20v2.pdf

So people can have hedges growing wildly over the 3ft recommendations but you can’t have a 5ft fence , it’s ridiculous. The fence looks gooddonna Mackay (Pudsey, 2021-04-27)

I think the fence looks nice!Some people have too much time on their hands to go out of their way to complain about a 5ft fence! Must be peed that they can't see through the window anymore! People try to better their homes (yes their home) and some busy body gets offended - get a grip, and go trim your council bush 😂

I think it's ridiculous to ask them to lower the fence , some of the hedges nearby are taller than itBekki Stephenson (Leeds, 2021-04-27)

I’m signing this because I believe you can erect a garden fence, under 2 metres high, without planning permissionChristine Bradley (Leeds, 2021-04-27)

This fence does not break Council rules, gives more protection to the people living in the house, and looks nice. Maybe the Council could do more to stop the break ins by installing cctvGlynis Winestein (Leeds, 2021-04-27)

I am there next door neighbour, I don't see a problem with the fence and they have this fence for security as well as the other fence was rotten. It also improves the look of the street as we take pride in our properties and gardens.Lucy R (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#253
I believe the fence isn't causing any issues whatsoever. In fact it appears to have resolved the issue of their property being vandalised. It looks good and there is absolutely no reason it needs to me modifiedLinsey Charles (Leeds, 2021-04-27)

It’s not doing any harm and is doing lots of good. Looks tidy and respectable.Ali Wilson (Leeds, 2021-04-27)

The fence looks nice and tidy instead of looking at over grown hedgesTracey Daniels (Leeds, 2021-04-27)

It looks very good and the most important protects their home from burglars.Bart Brasse (Huddersfield, 2021-04-27)

People should have the right to secure their property, plus the fence looks smart and improves the area. It should be allowed to stay.Jack Howard (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#283
Every one as a right to protect there own property, and a 5ft fence is not unreasonableCarole Cliffe (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#285
The fence looks lovely, with extra security to boot! Can only think it's somebody wanting to be able to hop over the fence and break in that's complained!!Michelle Arthur (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#288
Protecting your home and family > anything else. The council has bigger fish to fry than picking on one family for doing the right thing, especially when it's over ONE complaint. And it's a lot better than an overgrown hedge that blocks half of a foot path which is a common sight throughout LeedsDan Ribeiro (Leeds, 2021-04-27)

Common sense will hopefully prevailRobert Beety (Leeds, 2021-04-27)

The people in question are trying to make the area look and appeal better. I'm all for this as I live in the local area and have bought our house and do our best to keep the appearance of the estate good. I'm all for this fence, the council need to sort out the ones with 10ft hedges that are uncut and overgrown.Gareth Powell (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#293
This measure was taken for entirely the right reasons and is in complete keeping with the aesthetics of the local area.Andrew Millward (BRADFORD, 2021-04-27)
#297
I live in the area and think the fence is a positive addition . It is neat, tidy and the front garden is kept in a good condition. I do not see the problem.Hattie Hodgson-Crome (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#299
There are plenty if high fences not git permission, if this one petty complaint, LCC should ask fir opinions if people living near who have to see it regularly to see if they object.Margaret Horsman (Guiseley, Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#301
It seems utterly ridiculous to ask these people to lower an existing fence because of one complaint. I hope they are successful in getting retrospective planning permission for this neat well put up fence.Carol Mottram (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#303
I don't see an issue with a 5ft fence many people have them I believed you was allowed up to a 6ft fence around your garden and surely it's better than the tenants having overgrown grass and hedges that they don't maintain like a fair few council tenants, they have improved the look of the property and aren't doing anyone any harmLeanne Bell (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#304
I'm signing because sick of jobsworthy people. They have done nothing wrong if it had been a 7ft fence fair enough but it looks good and they had every right to protect their property.Tanya Clayton (Wakefield, 2021-04-27)
#307
The fence looks professional, smart, and presentable, and is in keeping with the area.Nikki Crick (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#308
Fence is under 6ft and shouldn't require planning permission. The fence looks lovely and tidy.Allison Green (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#311
There is absolutely nothing wrong with the 5ft fence. It’s tidy and helps deter criminals. The council should support people trying to keep properties tidy and safe, not penalise them. The council should put the same effort in to tell all the scruffy people to tidy their properties up because they are an eye sore.Angela Burke (Leeds , 2021-04-27)
#312
I think some people are petty and just jealous, it looks very niceMel Peel (Bridlington, 2021-04-27)
#315
It’s within the law. What’s the problem?Carla Bland (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#316
Freedom of choice it’s their own property and looks absolutely fine we need security in this day & ageJulie brook (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#321
Well obviously because it's absolutely common sense to allow the fence. Pettiness from a neighbour should be ignored. No reason whatsoever to lower the fence.Richard Lambert (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#326
I’m signing because the fence is in good order and tidies up the area and we are all entitled to our privacy and securityKim Burton (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#327
I dont agree with them having to take it down its 5ft high and looks nicely made. They are trying to make there property safe and secure.Annette Cawkwell (Leeds, 2021-04-27)

I know others who have erected tall fences to counteract crime and it does work.Barbara Sevens (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#333
A 5ft fence shouldnt cause any issues, it adds security and looks decent, if it was built from scrap i would understand them needing to lower itor remove it but it probably makes the area look better.Dwaine Harding (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#341
I don’t see anything wrong with the fence it looks nice it’s not an eyesore so I can’t see why it needs to be lowered.Kerry Anderson (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#343
Common sense must prevail.Ray Owen (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#346
I'm signing as it's within the specified height requirement without planning permission. What's the point if having restrictions if you can apply to whom ever you want & change them. This couple are entitled like everyone else to protect there home & are doing so within the guidelines set by Leeds City Council. It also looks good, clean & professionally done. Stop wasting people time & money Leeds Council.Lisa Duffy (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#348
It looks good! Not really sure why anyone's complaining. Can definitely understand why they wanted it aswell to prevent crime.Jade Worsley (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#352
The council ask tenants to seek permission for fences above 6ft so what have the residents done wrong. They have made a home improvement and made their property safe and securePauline Rapier (Leeds, 2021-04-27)

People should be able to do what they want with their homes to make them better and more secure too. Some people are perfectic and just like to moan at everything. KARENS everywhereZoe Stalker (Leeds, 2021-04-27)

There is nothing wrong with the fence and everybody should be entitled to privacy in their own home/garden.Catherine Manser (Wakefield, 2021-04-27)
#363
It looks fab and helpful in keeping crime away. Jealous neighbours that’s all it is. We have the same thing going on. Pure envy and nothing else better to do. Good luckPatricia Flaherty (Leeds, 2021-04-27)

I do not understand why this individual has got any gripes about this fence. And I fully support the family 100%Lawrence Lorriman (Leeds, 2021-04-27)

it looks good offers protection and isnt harming anyone else.Paul Lyttle (leeds, 2021-04-27)

The request to lower the fence to 3ft is ridiculousTomasz Malinowski (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#378
This is a perfectly normal and very smart looking fence there for the purpose of needed security.It improves the look of the area too.
There is nothing wrong with it and the owners should be allowed to leave it.
The council would be best addressing the large overgrown hedges obstructing pavements tbh.
Good luck with the petition.

#389
I lived down kirkstall on Gilbert chase and I had a fence put up it was exactly 6ft high a neighbour asked me if I had planning permission and I said I didn't need it I then went to kirkstall housing and told them about my fence was asked how high it was told them 6ft not an inch bigger told it was fine as it wasn't over 6ft ad I took great delight telling the nosey neighbour the outcomeThomas Oreilly (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
#391
I don’t see why they make an issue out of wanting to put a higher fence around your own property, it’s not affecting anyone and the busy body who reported you clearly has nothing better to do. It looks lovely and very tidy, the council want to focus on these people who refuse to maintain their homes and gardens before nit pickingJay Stead (Leeds, 2021-04-27)
