Boundary Fences
Council does not intervene in disputes between neighbours over boundary fences. The Boundary Fences Act provides for the settlement of disputes. You can obtain free legal advice from the Legal Advice Service on 1300 366 611.
Are Planning or Building Approvals Required?
Any boundary fence over 1.2 metres high and constructed of brick, block or concrete and any other fence over 2.1 metres high requires planning and building permits. For further information regarding this please do not hesitate to contact Council's Development Services Department on (03) 6393 5320 or alternatively email mail@mvc.tas.gov.au
