This page is a guide, outlining the development standards and other considerations for constructing a fence or free-standing wall on private property.
General Rules for Fences & Walls:
A Fence Permit is required for any new or modified fence or wall.
Fences and walls must not encroach into the public right-of-way. The curb or sidewalk are usually not the right-of-way boundary therefore it is important to determine the location of your property lines prior to constructing a fence.
