What kind of fence can I put up at my house?

In any front yard, no fence or wall or shrub shall be permitted which materially impedes vision across such yard over the height of three feet and twenty feet back from front property line. For back and side yards, a wall, fence, or planting screen shall not be more than six feet in height and shall be maintained in good condition.


Temporary materials or materials not originally designed for the purposes of fence construction will be highly discouraged. Fences made of wood, vinyl are preferred with chain-link encouraged only for back-yard fences.
