    1. A site plan is required.
    2. Fence height must be indicated.
    3. Although there is no setback required for a fence, we recommend that enough room be allowed to be sure that you are not encroaching on your neighbor’s yard.
    4. The location of the fence must be shown accurately on the site plan.
    5. Any fence built in the historic district must be approved by the Salisbury Historic District Commission.
    6. Fences behind the front yard setback can be up to 6 feet in height.
    7. Fences within the front yard setback can be no higher than 4 feet.
    8. Fencing shall be constructed so that any supportive structures, such as bracing or posts, are constructed on the fence facing the use to be screened.
