The permit must be obtained in the name of the owner of the property on which the fence is or will be located. Applications must be made on forms provided by the city. The applicant must provide the Building Inspector with a set of plans and specifications for the fence. Permit fees must be paid in accordance with Ordinance 33.061 of the City Code. This change corrects the application process and permitting, which is no longer a building permit under that separate code.

Any fence constructed or altered after 6-3-1982 must be located entirely upon the private property of the owner to whom the building permit was issued. Ownership of the permit fence passes with ownership of the property. The fence must be setback a distance from the owner’s property line sufficient to avoid encroachment onto adjoining private or public property or a public right-of-way. The applicant represents that the fence will be entirely on the property of the fence applicant. At its sole discretion, the city may require the applicant for the permit to locate and mark the property line abutting the public property by having a registered surveyor place permanent survey pins or stakes on the property line. Add the requirement for survey data to the location section, as it applies to any fence permit (not just when the fence is adjacent to the public right of way as in (B) below). 35
