DO I NEED MY PROPERTY PINS EXPOSED?

All metal property stakes need to be clearly seen before Northland Fence will begin the fence installation in Ramsey. If you find these rods to be missing, or even broken, their repair and re-evaluation is done by a Certified Surveyor.

WHERE CAN I PLACE MY FENCE ON THE PROPERTY?

Your fence must be placed fully within your property lines, and the owner is responsible for defining their exact property lines. Fences should never block traffic visibility, public rights of way, or access to utility easements such as fire hydrants or telephone poles. A fence can be built precisely on the property line if neighbors sign an agreement to share ownership.

The experts at Northland Fence will help you plan your installation based on your specific needs. Our fence planning tool is also a great resource.

DO I NEED A FENCE PERMIT?

In Ramsey, a zoning permit is required for the construction or replacement of any fence 7 feet and under. Fences taller than 7 feet will require a building permit instead, and any fences above 8 feet will require an additional variance. Your permit application will need to be accompanied by an accurate site plan showing all aspects of your property.

WHO CALLS THE UTILITIES WHEN INSTALLING A FENCE?

In Minnesota, Gopher State One Call needs to be called by the installer of the fence. If you hire Northland Fence, we will find out the location of utility lines and mark them so the fence installation in Ramsey goes without disrupting important lines. If you choose to install a fence yourself, do not start any digging before calling the utilities!

WHAT ARE THE HEIGHT RESTRICTIONS ON FENCES IN RAMSEY, MN?

The maximum height allowance for a fence in Ramsey is 8 feet, but those above 7 feet require a building permit rather than a zoning permit. Anything above 8 feet will require an additional variance on your permit. Fences in the front setback of your property (front yard) are limited to a maximum of 4 feet in height.

CAN I BUILD MY FENCE ON AN EASEMENT?

Easements can be for public passage or even for utilities that the city may need to access at any point in time. Try to avoid constructing your fence on an easement, but if you must surround it, ask the Ramsey Planning Department for permission.

ARE THERE ANY DESIGN OR MATERIAL RESTRICTIONS?

Barbed wire and electric fences are outlawed by the state of Minnesota.

KNOW YOUR NEIGHBORS

Some circumstances will make contact with neighbors necessary, so be open with your ideas to others. The style of your fence and how well you take care of it afterward will reflect on the entire neighborhood.

DO I NEED TO NOTIFY MY NEIGHBORS? IF SO, WHEN?

If your fencing project will only take place on your land, there’s no legal obligation to disclose the construction to neighbors. Open communication is a recommended courtesy so that there are no hard feelings during the installation process.

WHAT IS THE GOOD NEIGHBOR RULE AND DOES IT APPLY FOR MY FENCE?

If you install a fence on your property, it is now a part of your land and need to be cared for timely and efficiently. Doing this will make you a ‘Good Neighbor.’ Hold yourself accountable for all maintenance on your land, and even for your fair share of keeping a boundary fence in good shape.

KNOW THE DETAILS

When building a structure as encompassing as a fence, there are particular standards to meet so safety is promoted in the community. Know when you need permission, and who you need it from to avoid fines in the future. There is nothing worse than being charged with the relocating or deconstruction of a fence you’ve just installed, so take considerations of all laws of fence installation in Ramsey.

A pool fence design should be resistant to climbing without any handholds or gap more than 6 inches. All gates should use of self closing and self latching devices which also lock when not in use.

DO I NEED A SURVEY BEFORE INSTALLING A FENCE?

A survey will be required to produce a proper site plan with accurate measurements. An inspection from a certified surveyor will provide a site map detailing natural variances, existing structures and certain restrictions that may apply to your individual property. A certified surveyor will also be able to replace missing or broken property pins.

HOW DO I CHOOSE A FENCE?

The fence will probably need to serve a particular use, so let the design reflect that. Secure an animal or block a pool from unauthorized use with a vinyl privacy fence that will not warp or fall victim to discoloration. You also cannot go wrong with the elegance and security an ornamental steel fence provides land.
