Other rules to know
- Not one of the six towns under Chippewa County zoning (Anson, Eagle Point, Hallie, Lafayette, Wheaton, Woodmohr), so any fence rules would come from the town; none were found online.
Before you dig
Call Diggers Hotline at 811 (or file online at diggershotline.com) at least 3 business days before digging post holes. 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.
