Under DC 18.30.070, residential fences and walls on parcels with an established land use are exempt from land use permit requirements. Retaining walls and structural walls still require a building permit through TMC Title 15.
Truckee's Development Code Section 18.30.070 treats most residential fences as exempt from land use permits, provided the parcel already has an established land use and the fence complies with height and setback standards. A building permit through the Town's Building Division (TMC Title 15) is required for walls retaining more than 2-3 feet of soil, for walls over 6 feet tall, and for any structural construction. Commercial and non-residential fences may require additional review.
Building structural fences or retaining walls without the required building permit is a violation of TMC Title 15 enforceable by stop-work orders, citations, and requirement to obtain retroactive permits.
