What is the maximum height for a residential fence?

Front Yard

Fences may be up to three (3’) feet tall, and may be extended up to four (4’) feet with see-through fencing material. Front yard fences may be further extended to (5’) feet tall upon approval of a Planning Permit.

 

Side and Rear Yard

Fences may be up to six (6’) feet tall and may be extended up to eight (8’) feet with see-through fencing material, except in visibility zones. In visibility zones, no fence may exceed three (3’) feet in height.

 

Please note: The “visibility zone” is generally the area on the corner of two intersecting roads. The “visibility zone” is determined by the City Engineer and the dimensions of this zone are based on traffic and safety considerations.
