CANIBUILDAFENCEINTHESHORELAND? <br />Yes, but there are some minor restricƟons for lakeshore owners or owners <br />abuƫng Rice Creek, including: <br /> <br />x A fence is prohibited within 25 feet of the OHWL of Jones, Long, Pike, and <br />Poplar Lakes and Rice Creek. A fence is prohibited within 75 feet of Rush <br />Lake. This is considered the Shore Impact Zone*. <br />x Between 25 feet Ͳ 50 feet of Jones, Long, Pike, Poplar Lakes and Rice Creek <br />and between 75 feet Ͳ 150 feet of Rush Lake a 3 1/2 foot fence is allowed but <br />it cannot be a solidͲsurface fence. Fences in this area must be seeͲthrough <br />(i.e. chain link, wrought iron, picket, etc.). <br />x Once the building setback is met, a 6 foot privacy fence is allowed. <br /> <br />The intent of these standards is to allow fences, but not unreasonably interͲ <br />fere with views from neighboring properƟes. <br /> <br />Any fencing that is intended for the conĮnement of animals must meet the <br />building setback (50 feet for Jones, Long, Pike, and Poplar Lakes and Rice Creek <br />and 150 feet for Rush Lake). <br /> <br />*See separate board to learn more about the Shore Impact Zone. <br />The above example does not apply to Rush Lake
