Palm Bay Code Section 174.007 limits fences outside building lines to 4 feet in the front setback and 6 feet at all other locations. Corner lots may have 6-foot fences in the side corner yard if they do not obstruct the vision clearance triangle.
Under Section 174.007, walls and fences outside building lines cannot exceed 4 feet in the front setback or 6 feet elsewhere. On corner lots, no wall, fence, or hedge may obstruct vision between 2.5 feet and 10 feet above centerline grade within the triangular area formed by street right-of-way lines at points 25 feet from the intersection. Chain link fences must be set back at least 20 feet from front or side corner property lines.
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.
