Section 250128 of the Coral Springs Land Development Code governs fences, walls, and hedges. In residential zoning districts, front yard fences are limited to 4 feet in height and must be decorative in style. Side yard (interior) and rear yard fences may be up to 6 feet tall. Street-side yard fences are also limited to 6 feet. Within a visibility triangle formed by intersecting rights-of-way, no fence may exceed 3 feet above street grade within 30 feet of the intersection point. Tables A and B in the code set maximum heights for fences/walls and hedges respectively across all zoning districts. The absolute maximum fence height in any district is 10 feet.
Fence height violations are enforced by Code Compliance. Violations result in a notice of violation and civil penalties up to $500. Continued noncompliance may lead to code enforcement board hearings and escalating daily fines.
