Draper resident Peter Warhatch asked the City Council on Tuesday, Nov. 10, to replace aging wooden fencing along the city's border with Sandy at 11400 South.
Sandy's side of the corridor already has masonry, according to OpenUtah's civic-issues tracker. Draper's side has deteriorating wood.
Warhatch urged the city to upgrade the fencing for curb appeal and safety. He cited higher traffic speeds along the corridor as a concern for homeowners in the Camden Park and Cranberry subdivisions, whose backyards sit behind the wooden panels.
The stretch serves as Draper's north entrance. Warhatch argued the contrast between the two cities' fencing does not reflect well on Draper.
No cost estimate for a masonry replacement has been provided. A replacement program would be a city expense if pursued.
