Loudoun County requires zoning clearance for most residential fences but does not require a building permit for standard fences under 7 feet per the Virginia USBC exemption. Zoning review ensures compliance with setback, height, and sight triangle requirements. Applications require a site plan showing property boundaries, existing structures, fence location, height, and materials. Property surveys strongly recommended to avoid encroachment disputes — recent Loudoun subdivision lot lines can be deceptively close to fence installations. Historic district properties in Waterford (National Historic Landmark), Middleburg, and Leesburg historic districts require separate Historic District Review Committee approval. HOAs in planned communities require architectural approval before installation.
Installing without zoning clearance: $100-$500 plus required after-the-fact review. Setback/height violations: forced modification or removal. HOA fines $50-$500 plus potential litigation.
