Atlanta Fence Permits: Do you need a permit to put up a fence in Atlanta?
Depends on where you live. As of this writing, there are 5 cities in the Metro Atlanta area that require fence permits. The City of Atlanta, the City of Sandy Springs, the City of Milton, the City of Johns Creek, and the City of Brookhaven all have their own processes and rules, but all are relatively simple and easy to navigate.
After you get a fencing quote and decide that a new fence is in your future, print and fill out the permit paperwork for your city. When you submit your paperwork, include your Apex fence quote with its diagram to show the location of your fence. Once your application is approved by your city permitting representative, you will be free to have your new fence installed.
