Pearl City neighborhoods including Manana, Pearl City Highlands, and Waiau follow the islandwide ROH 21-4.60 fence height rules, with military-family rentals near Pearl Harbor subject to the same caps.
ROH Sec. 21-4.60 limits fence, wall, and hedge heights throughout Pearl City. In the R-5 and R-7.5 districts that cover most of the CDP from Waimalu to Manana and Pearl City Highlands, side and rear fences typically cap at 6 feet while front-yard fences cap at 4 feet. Fences over 36 inches tall along street frontages require additional landscape or setback controls to preserve sight lines on curving hillside streets. Pearl City has heavy military-family occupancy supporting Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, but ROH applies equally to rental homes and owner-occupied houses. Fences abutting Kamehameha Highway service corridors receive extra scrutiny for visibility.
Honolulu Department of Planning and Permitting issues notices of violation, requires reducing or removing the fence, and imposes daily civil fines that continue until the fence complies.
