Miramar fence regulations are in the Land Development Code. Residential backyard fences generally limited to 6 feet. A building permit is required for all fences, with a full boundary survey showing fence location and dimensions.
The city requires a fence permit application describing type and height, a Homeowner's Association Affidavit of Awareness, and a full scalable boundary survey (1 set) indicating location and dimensions. Approval from South Broward Drainage District is required if a fence encroaches on a drainage or lake easement. FL §823.11 prohibits spite fences over 10 feet built solely to annoy neighbors. Height limits may vary by zoning district — contact Building Division at (954) 602-3200.
Fences exceeding height limits receive a notice to comply with a 30-day correction deadline. Failure to comply carries fines of $50–$200 per day until the fence is brought into compliance.
