No county-level fence permit. Most Westchester municipalities require a local building permit for fences over 6 ft, and pool-barrier fences always require permits under NYS code.
Fence permit requirements are municipal. Most Westchester towns require a building permit for any fence over 6 ft high; some require permits for all fences. Pool barriers always require a building permit and must comply with NYS Residential Code Appendix G. Historic districts (Tarrytown, Sleepy Hollow, parts of Yonkers) may require architectural review board approval for fence materials and style.
