Do You Need a Minnesota Fence Code Permit?
Fence Installation Minneapolis & St. Paul
Planning to add a fence to your property? It’s an outstanding investment. The advantages of safety, privacy, and security are important enough, but fences also increase your property value, enhance your aesthetics, and add excellent resale incentive. But a fence should not only suit your personal preferences, it also needs to align with your city’s regulations. Before you stake your turf, you’ll want to know which codes are designated by your city, and whether you’ll need a permit.
WHAT ARE THE CODES AND PERMITS?
Most cities have certain codes and regulations that need to be followed for fence installation. These vary from city to city, and also from residential to commercial installation. Many property owners don’t know that they are responsible for verifying their city’s codes before installing a fence. Just because it is your property, does not necessarily mean you can install a fence wherever you wish. Contacting your local building officials is one way to ensure that you have the most up-to-date information available. Some of the things these codes regulate are:
- Setbacks
- Fencing material
- Fence height
- Boundary lines
- Construction conditions
- Location of fence
