Sedona Land Development Code §5.6.E governs fence placement, height measurement, and materials in residential zones, with separate rules for required setback areas and lot lines.
Fences must comply with corner-visibility (sight-triangle) requirements at street intersections and driveway approaches. Materials must be appropriate to the surrounding character — chain-link is allowed but discouraged in front yards; barbed wire and razor wire are limited to specific non-residential uses. Fence permits may be required for walls over 6 feet or any fence requiring engineered foundations. Properties bordering National Forest or Open Space zoning have a minimum 20-foot setback from those district lines.
LDC violations enforced by Community Development. Sight-line violations are also a traffic-safety issue and may trigger immediate correction orders.
