Other rules to know

  • The Village's Forms page lists a Building Permit Application and the Zoning Ordinance but no fence-specific form, and its 'Building Inspection Procedures and Fees' entry shows no amounts here.
  • The Village's zoning ordinance and fee documents could not be opened, so no fence rules or fee are listed.
  • The Building Permits page says to verify the property is inside the Village (not the Town of Ridgeway) before applying; it lists the Village's streets.

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.
