What Hollywood asks for with a fence permit
- A Broward County Uniform Permit Application from a licensed contractor (or eligible owner-builder)
- A clean survey or site plan showing fences and gates, height, type, material, total linear feet, gate sizes, and the water meter, backflow and sewer cleanout with clear meter access
- Surveys over 1 year old need a survey affidavit; surveys over 10 years old aren’t accepted
- Product approval: anything other than 6-foot chain link or wood needs a current Notice of Acceptance or a site-specific detail sealed by a design professional
- Easement agreements, an HOA or condo approval letter where applicable, and a Notice of Commencement above the city’s threshold
Replacing a fence needs a permit too — whether it was destroyed by a storm or you’re changing the type. Under HB 803, Hollywood treats fences as structural work that still needs a permit; only repair or replacement of wood pickets and panels (not posts) on single-family homes may be exempt.
