Do I need a permit to build or replace my fence?
Fences six feet or less in height do not require a building permit. In Lyon County residential fences are limited to a maximum six feet in height in side and rear yards. Fences in front yard areas may not exceed 4 feet in height. Fences within 25 feet of an intersection are limited to 2 feet in height.
