Change in Fence Ordinance Pertaining to Twin Home Properties

9/25/2025

At their September 24, 2025 council meeting, it was approved to admend the below section of our existing fence ordinance #152 to address twin home lots. 

  1. Setbacks. A fence may be located within 5 feet of a property line. Fences along shared property lines in twin home configurations may be installed entirely within the owner's property. However, placement directly on the shared property line requires mutual consent from both property owners.  No fence, wall, hedge, or other screening device shall be permitted to encroach on any public right-of-way.
