Other rules to know
- Somo is not on the list of towns under Lincoln County zoning on the Town of Russell's zoning page. No town website or fence ordinance was 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.
