Do I Need a Fence Permit in Chatsworth?
The city's Building and Zoning office confirms the permit step, and the zoning rules are specific. A fence in a required yard is capped at 8 feet; an ornamental fence up to 6 feet can enclose the whole lot if it sits at least 10 feet off the right-of-way where the curb is the line; and chain link isn't allowed in a residential front yard. Corner lots keep a 25-foot triangle clear above 3 feet. Outside the city, Murray County Land Use and Development caps yard fences at 8 feet and limits agricultural-type fence to the Agriculture district.

Common Questions
Fence Questions From Chatsworth
Something else on your mind? Call (423) 842-8700 and ask.
Can I put chain link in my front yard in Chatsworth?
Not inside the city. Front yards take ornamental fence up to 6 feet, set back from the right-of-way. Chain link is fine on the sides and rear.
What about a farm outside town?
Murray County allows agricultural-type fence in the Agriculture district. Field fence with a top rail and farm gates suits the poultry and cattle operations.
Can you handle the mountain-edge lots?
Yes. Lots toward Fort Mountain are steep and rocky. We rack panels to the grade and drill posts where the rock is shallow.
