Pickerington zoning requires a sight-visibility triangle at intersecting streets and driveways. Fences, walls, and tall landscaping are restricted within the triangle to preserve driver and pedestrian visibility.
Within the sight-distance triangle formed at the intersection of two streets, or a street and a driveway, structures and vegetation taller than roughly 30 inches are prohibited. The triangle is measured along each curb line from the point of intersection. Violations are taken seriously because they directly affect traffic safety. The Engineering Department can confirm the applicable dimensions for a given corner.
Obstructions must be removed immediately upon notice. Failure to comply can result in city abatement at the owner's expense and misdemeanor fines up to 250 dollars per day.
