Before you call, in Southern Pines
Do I need a permit for a fence in Southern Pines?
Yes. The fence permit is $60, it needs a site plan showing the fence location and setbacks, and the fence has to sit at least two feet from a right-of-way or the inside edge of a sidewalk. No construction until the permit is issued.
Source: southernpines.netDoes Southern Pines care if I take out pine trees?
The Town's fence permit asks for the number of pine trees being removed, so tree removal is part of what gets reviewed. If the project takes trees out, ask the Planning Department how that affects your permit before work starts.
