A building permit is not required to build any fence 6′ or less in height. However, when a fence, regardless of height, is to be built within your property’s building setbacks, on your property line, or adjacent to a trail easement, a fence permit is required. Regulations for fence style, color, height, and opacity vary depending on the zoning district that your property is located within. Please refer to the Town’s fence ordinance for fencing regulations and permit requirements.
