Other rules to know
- The Town administers its own general zoning (Town of Land O' Lakes Zoning Ordinance), with a Town Zoning Administrator; the ordinance text was not found online, so fence rules are unknown. Vilas County's Zoning & Planning page also lists Land o' Lakes among the towns with town zoning ordinances.
- The Town's Permits & Licenses page lists a Building Permit Application (PDF, also online through HeyGov) and a Building Permit Application Fees sheet; neither the page nor the Zoning Administrator page mentions fences, and the research tool could not open the PDFs.
- Vilas County Zoning (715-479-3620) still handles county shoreland zoning in this town; ask whether a county permit is also needed near a lake or river.
- Town Hall: 4331 Hwy B, Land O' Lakes, WI 54540, 715-547-3255 (Clerk/Treasurer Casey Vold).
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.
