Vallejo limits fence heights: typically 6 feet in rear/side yards, 3.5 to 4 feet in front yards. Taller fences require variance or permit.
Vallejo zoning code regulates fence heights by yard location. Rear and side yard fences are typically limited to 6 feet. Front yard fences are limited to 3.5 to 4 feet to maintain visibility and neighborhood character. Corner lots may have additional visibility triangle requirements at intersections. Retaining walls that also serve as fences have combined height calculated. Taller fences require a variance from the planning department. Decorative elements may extend slightly above the limit.
Code compliance notice with correction period. Remove or modify non-compliant fence. Fines if not corrected.
