Volusia County Land Development Code specifies approved fence materials by zoning district. Hurricane-rated construction recommended in coastal Daytona/NSB. Barbed wire prohibited in residential zones.
Volusia County Land Development Code (Article III) and County Code Ch. 72 (Zoning) govern fence materials. Approved residential materials include wood (pressure-treated, cedar), vinyl/PVC, aluminum, wrought iron, chain-link, and masonry. Chain-link is typically prohibited in front yards of residential districts. Barbed wire and razor wire are banned in residential zones but permitted agriculturally. Coastal properties in Daytona Beach Shores, Ormond-by-the-Sea, and New Smyrna Beach face salt-air corrosion — vinyl and aluminum outperform steel. After Hurricanes Matthew (2016), Ian (2022), and Nicole (2022), wind-rated fence design (per FL Building Code 7th Ed. Ch. 16) is strongly recommended. HOAs in ICI Homes and Venetian Bay communities (NSB) frequently require specific materials and prohibit chain-link entirely. Finished side typically faces outward.
Non-compliant materials: code compliance notice; may require replacement. HOA fines per declarations. Unpermitted fences over 6 feet: stop-work order plus after-the-fact permit fees.
