If you live in the city limits, most city codes have specific guidelines regulating how far from the road or property line the fence should be which is typically 10 feet from the road surface to allow a right away for any future piping or sidewalks or city maintenance.. Some neighborhood codes prohibit fences being built in the front of the home. Some also may regulate the type of fence that can be built in the backyard. Some areas like tree lines or buffers is the area of right of way for the city to come through if need be. Wood fences can and will be taken down by the city if you are in the right of way. Although wood fences can be placed in the right of way only if you agree to move the wood fence so work can be done by the city. This you must agree to in order to have any wood fences installed. If you have a plot plan of your property it would be in your best interest to have the fence contractor look at it. This way if there is a buffer zone he can show you.
