HOA approval for a new fence in Frisco
City permit and HOA approval are separate. Here's how to handle both.
A city permit and HOA approval are two separate things. You may need both.
What the cities say
- Frisco: its fence submittal form says "Some subdivisions require HOA approval. Please contact your HOA for approval."
- Celina: its fence packet lists an "HOA Approval Letter" among the documents for a fence permit.
What to get from your HOA
- The fence section of your neighborhood's rules: height, material, style, stain color and which side faces out
- The approval form and how long reviews take
- The approval in writing before work starts
Order of operations
- Check HOA rules and get a quote that follows them.
- Submit to the HOA with the plan and materials.
- Once approved, the contractor submits the city permit (in Frisco, with the plot plan marked).
- Contact 811 at least two business days before digging, then build.
Give your contractor the HOA rules at the quote stage. A quote for the wrong style or height wastes everyone's time.
