Other rules to know

  • The City's Planning & Zoning FAQ asks whether fences must conform to the Zoning Ordinance and where the property line is for measuring fence locations, but the answers could not be read online.
  • The City's website (cityofkingman.gov) could not be fetched; a new zoning code was reported to take effect in 2026.

Before you dig

Call Arizona 811 before digging post holes (dial 811). Utilities have two full working days to mark their lines, so call at least two working days ahead. Find your lot corner markers and keep the fence on your side of the line. County parcel maps can be off by several feet; if you're not sure where the line is, a licensed land surveyor can stake it.
