How much does a Pinellas Park, FL fence permit cost?

We have Pinellas Park, FL's fence ordinance on file but not a permit fee, so we do not publish an amount for it. Ask the building department what a fence permit costs before you apply.

What does a fence plot plan need to show?

Your property outline, location of the proposed fence, total linear feet, height, material, distance from any street/sidewalk, and (in most cities) the location of your house. Fence Plotter generates this automatically from a satellite image and your fence drawing.

Can I draw my plot plan myself?

Yes — most building departments accept owner-drawn plot plans as long as they're clear, dimensioned, and to scale. Fence Plotter produces a permit-ready plot plan + elevation sketch in two minutes.

Pinellas Park, FL fence rules

Max height (rear yard): 6'

No permit is required for a fence or wall at a single-family detached or duplex home that meets the height limits in Table 18-1530-1. Permits are always required for swimming pool enclosures, and for fences or walls on any other property type.
Height limits depend on your zoning district: RE and "RES, Other" residential districts allow 4' in the front yard and 6' in side and rear yards, while the F Farm district allows 6' in all yards. Fences are not allowed in the front yard at all in the MXD and TC districts.
A fence, wall or hedge may be built on the lot line or street line provided no part of it, including underground footers, projects onto abutting property or right-of-way. Nothing may sit in a City, State or County right-of-way without a Minor Easement affidavit/agreement, or in a utility or drainage easement without conditional approval from the Public Works Department.
On corner lots, cross-visibility must stay unobstructed between 2' and 8' above the crown of the lowest adjacent right-of-way within the visibility triangle, which at intersecting rights-of-way is formed by 35' along the edge of pavement of each street from their point of intersection.
Fences and walls must not contain broken glass, spikes, nails, razor wire, barbed wire or similar injurious materials. Barbed wire is permitted only in the CH, M-1 and IH districts.
Fences facing public rights-of-way must be installed with the smooth finished side facing outward. Posts and columns may exceed the maximum fence height by up to 1' if they are separated by at least 6'.
