Dear Randy Stevenson
Community Development Director,
This letter is in reference to a required and appropriate fence height when keeping and maintaining
horses in a paddock or pasture area, whether at a boarding facility or a privately owned residential
home.
As a respected Hunter-Jumper Trainer in the Orlando area, the ~JCF Hunt Seat Coach, v~ith 15
years as a professional, and 25 years in the horse industry, I feel that the appropriate fence height
for keeping horses, in a pasture type area, is between Oft, to 4.Sft. This is what our fencing height
is at our farm, in grange County, that stables between 3Q to 35 horses, where the horses range in
all sizes to snnall ponies up to vexy Large horses. It is a 3 boarded fence, that is around 4 ft. high.
In all of my travels to horseshows through out the country, to many boarding facilities, public and
private, I have never seen a perimeter fence for a paddock or pasture area, higher than 4.Sft.
Tease feel free to contact me at 40?-~63~2113 or lapcisaacson~,embargmail.com
Sincerely,
I.esli Isaacson
