Garland Fence Permits
This Dallas suburb calls on residents to submit a $50 permit for new and replacement fencing.
You can build your fences up to 8 feet tall, except for in the front yard. This fence has a maximum height of 3.5 feet, and very specific instructions. It must be wood or wrought iron, constructed with 4 inches of vertical space per foot and 1 foot of horizontal space. Front-yard fences made of brick can only be 2.5 feet tall.
Additionally, you must install what the city calls a “visibility clip” for solid fencing on corner lots.
Also, check with your subdivision — it may have specific material requirements.
