Guidelines
for Fences/Walls |
|
1. Except as otherwise specified, ALL styles and types of fences require the written approval of the Committee.
2. Split rail fencing will not be permitted.
3. Side/front yard fencing on corner lots must be no greater than 36" in height and must be white in color. This fence must be at least one foot (1’) behind the sidewalk easement.
4. Fencing in rear and or side yards will not be permitted past the rear (alley side) garage wall or four feet (4') from the rear/side property line, whichever is closer to the paved alley surface.
5. Unless otherwise restricted above, rear and side yard fencing may be of a board on board (a.k.a. alternating board) style or a solid board style with the finished (not rail) side facing out, and may be a maximum of six feet (6') in height. Such fencing shall be either natural wood finish or white in color. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a lattice panel not exceeding one foot (1') in height may be included on such fencing to however; the overall fence height maximum of six feet (6') cannot be exceeded. The top of the posts cannot exceed a height of six feet (6'). However, the height of the top rail must be consistent with any pre-existing fences immediately adjacent to the property. The height must not exceed six feet (6').
6. Fencing in rear yards will not be permitted to extend forward of the rear wall of the dwelling into the front “yard” of the property.
7. Various types of privacy fencing will be considered by the Committee on a case-by-case basis based upon the location of the particular Lot and relationship to surrounding topography and structures.
8. Fencing can be placed on shared property lines, with neighbor's consent, which requires joint application (i.e., signature of both parties as applicants). Maintenance of the fence is the joint responsibility of both Members.
9. No fence will be approved if its installation will obstruct sight lines of vehicular traffic.
10. Members will construct NO fencing on common area property.
11. Hedges planted for the purposes of creating a hedge fence along the Member's property line requires approval from the Committee as if it were a regular fence.
12. Chain link or other galvanized metal fences are prohibited.
13. If only one side of a fence has finished materials, this side must face out towards the community.
