FENCING   

Fencing can detract from the open character of Hollymead and may have both a visual and a physical impact on the adjoining property and the overall community. All fencing must be approved prior to installation.


There are two acceptable fencing types;

  • 4 foot yard fencing
  • 6 foot privacy fencing (Only for homes between Broad Crossings and Hollymead Drive)

Yard fencing:  

  • Fencing shall be 48 inches from ground level to the top of the top rail or board. The fence shall have a minimum of a 1” slot between vertical or horizontal boards.
  • Vinyl coated wire mesh may be fixed to the inside of the fence but it shall have minimum 2 x 4 inch openings.  
  • Fencing setbacks shall be 6 feet from street.
  • Fences can be sealed or stained as long as end result is a white or natural color.

Privacy fencing: 

  • Only for homes between Broad Crossings and Hollymead Drive
  • Fencing shall be 72 inches from ground level to the top of the top rail or board. 
  • Fencing setbacks shall be 6 feet from street.
  • Fences can be sealed or stained as long as end result is a white or natural color.

Unacceptable fencing:

  • Plastic, vinyl, chain link, or wire fencing
  • Privacy fencing other than as defined above
