If you are considering installing a fence in Nether Providence Township you will need to heed the township’s new ordinance before you start digging. Ordinance #767, approved by the board of commissioners at a September meeting, specifies that no residential fence or wall may be taller than 6 feet. That limit includes any extensions.
No fence or wall can be placed directly on property lines and the finished side must face out toward the adjacent property or right-of-way. Under the new ordance the use of barbed or razor wire or “similar dangerous protrusions” in residential districts is prohibited, with the exception of ornamental designed fencing.
