Fence Building Permit Information


Fence Building Permits are required for all fences. This is to ensure that City ordinances and zoning regulations are followed in their construction. It is the property owner's responsibility to submit a utility locate request to Kansas One-Call 1-800-DIG-SAFE (344-7233)   48 hours   prior to excavating for fence posts. The staking inspection will not be made until the locate request has been submitted. There is no charge for fence building permits.
