Are fences permitted in storm drainage easements?
Always check with the Town’s Department of Public Works at (703) 771-2790 before erecting a fence or any other structure within an easement. In most cases, you may construct a fence on your property as long as it does not interfere with the flow of stormwater or redirect the flow onto a neighbor’s property. Permanent structures such as footings, brick piers or columns never allowed in easements.
