Orem City Code requires a written permit from the City before erecting, constructing, reconstructing, or altering any building, structure, or fence. This requirement applies to all fence sizes and materials — unlike some cities, Orem does not exempt small sheds-and-fences from permitting. Permit applications are submitted online through the Orem Building Department portal (orem.gov/buildingpermits). Contact the Building Department at (801) 229-7000 for guidance.
Building a fence without a permit: citation. May require removal or retroactive permit.
