A fence is a barrier to mark a boundary; such a barrier can be made of posts and wire or boards.

Fences located within any "X" Flood Zone will not require a permit. However, a fence located within any "A" Zone or "V" Zone will require a permit and have the following requirements:

• A completed Residential application;
• A site plan showing the proposed location of the fence; and
• A fence design indicating the elevation, type of material and depth of footing.

All application packets for properties located in a Floodway or the "V" Zones must include a Scour report, a Hydraulic Analysis, Flood Plain notes, and drawings signed and sealed by a Professional Engineer licensed in the state of Texas.
