Yuma requires exterior subdivision fencing to be 6 feet high from the high ground side, constructed of masonry. Front yard fences are typically limited to 3-4 feet. Side and rear fences up to 6 feet are standard.
Under §154-15.06, all exterior subdivision fencing must be 6 feet in height measured from the high ground side. Interior residential fences in side and rear yards may be up to 6 feet. Front yard fences and walls are typically limited to 3-4 feet to maintain visibility and neighborhood character. Fence height near intersections must comply with sight triangle requirements. Retaining wall/fence combinations may have special height calculations. The specific height limits depend on the zoning district.
Fences exceeding height limits may be cited by code enforcement and required to be modified.
