So you're building a fence. A fence must be completely installed on the owner's property. If exact property lines are unknown, a professional survey may be necessary. Fences are not allowed in an easement. If a fence is erected in an easement, it is the property owner's responsibility to remove this fence when requested at the owner's expense.
Any damage done to a fence located in an easement is the property owner's responsibility.
Location of a fence in the front yard is strictly regulated. A fence over 30 inches in height is not allowed in the first 15 feet of the front yard. On corner properties, fencing over 30 inches is not permitted in the 30 foot restricted angle. Contact the Building Inspections Department for a diagram of this and to have any questions answered on the issue. A permit is not required for a fence that is a maximum of six feet tall.
