A privacy fence beside a school crosswalk — the enlarged sight triangle drawn to traffic standards so two departments approved without a site visit.
A property backing to a school crosswalk needed a 6-ft privacy fence, but Omaha restricts fence height near intersections used as school crossings, requiring sight-distance documentation beyond the standard triangle.
We drew the enlarged school-zone sight triangle from the city's traffic standard, held the 6-ft fence outside it, stepped the corner segment to 42 inches, and dimensioned the crosswalk relationship so traffic review could sign off from the plan alone.
Both zoning and traffic engineering approved without a site visit — the fence went up before the school year started.

Local-rule reminder: tool results and project examples are planning aids, not an approval guarantee. Your building or planning department makes the final determination.
