Utah County and its cities regulate fence materials by zone. Provo City Code §14.34 and Orem City Code §22-14-15 specify approved materials. Wood, vinyl, wrought iron standard. Barbed wire prohibited residential.
Fence material rules vary by jurisdiction. Provo City Code §14.34.280 allows wood, vinyl, masonry, wrought iron, and decorative metal in residential zones; chain-link permitted in side and rear yards but generally not facing streets in R1 zones. Orem City Code §22-14-15 mirrors these standards. Barbed wire and razor wire prohibited in residential zones under both codes, permitted only in industrial/agricultural zones. Electric fences restricted to agricultural zones per Utah County Land Use Ordinance §8.6. HOAs in Daybreak-style master-planned communities, Traverse Mountain, and Alpine frequently require vinyl or masonry and prohibit chain-link entirely. Fence finished (good) side must face outward per both city codes.
Non-compliant material notice with 30-day removal deadline. Continued violation: $100 per day civil penalty. HOA fines per CC&Rs. Retroactive replacement required at owner expense.
