Fences in Pickerington generally require a zoning permit from the city before installation. The permit reviews height, location, setbacks, and material compliance. Pool fences also require a building permit for safety barrier review.
The Pickerington Planning and Development Department issues fence permits. Applicants submit a site plan showing property lines, proposed fence location, height, and material. Permits typically issue within a few business days for compliant applications. HOAs in subdivisions such as Sycamore Creek, Sycamore Ridge, and Tollgate often have additional architectural review in addition to city permits.
Installing a fence without a permit can result in a stop-work order, a permit-after-the-fact fee, and potential removal if the fence does not comply with zoning.
