Do I need a permit to build a fence on my property?

No. You do not need a permit to install a fence as long as it is not higher than 6 feet and does not extend past the front corner of your residence where the house structure connects with the front porch. If a fence is the stockade type of fence, the finished side must face outward from your property. Depending on the type of fence, there may be additional criteria you must adhere to.
