Residential privacy fences can provide security, contain children and pets, shelter a yard from the elements, and can enhance the curb appeal of a home. On a corner lot, fences should be allowed to extend to the property line, and past the corner yard setback, if they do not exceed a maximum height of 48 inches, they are open style and slatted, have a maximum of 50% opacity, and incorporate a gate for utility and Village employees to inspect.
