medium · LSAT Logical Reasoning

A homeowner should be granted a variance to build a fence higher than six feet only if the fence does not block a neighbor's view of the valley and the fence is made of natural wood.

Which one of the following situations conforms to the principle stated above?

  1. An applicant's request for an eight-foot wooden fence is turned down because the structure would cut off a neighbor's line of sight to the valley.
  2. A variance is granted because the neighbor has permanently moved away from the area and reportedly no longer cares at all about the valley view.
  3. Any wood fence that does not block a neighbor's view must automatically be approved whenever the homeowner asks for a height variance.
  4. A homeowner is granted a variance for a seven-foot natural-stone wall merely because it happens to be located directly behind the house.
  5. A seven-foot natural-wood fence that leaves the neighbor's valley view fully unobstructed is nonetheless refused a height variance.
