Hanford's zoning code (Title 17, §§17.50.110–17.50.120) governs fence and wall heights. Block walls at least 7 feet are required at residential-commercial property line interfaces. Standard residential fence heights follow Title 17 development standards.
Hanford Municipal Code Title 17 (§§17.50.110 and 17.50.120) requires a solid block wall of at least 7 feet along any lot line where a residential property abuts a commercial or service zone. For general residential fencing, standard height limits apply (typically 6 ft in rear/side yards, lower in front yards). Height is measured from the shorter side when grade differences exist.
Code compliance notice with correction period. Remove or modify non-compliant fence. Fines if not corrected.
