What Makes Fencing in Huntertown Different
Huntertown continues to grow, and most fence projects take place in newer subdivisions along Lima Road (SR 3) and Cedar Canyons Road. Homes near the Pufferbelly Trail and developments such as The Quarry often follow neighborhood rules that guide height, spacing, and rear-yard placement. Sidewalks, shared green space, and corner lots require clean alignment and clear sightlines.
Properties near the Cedar Creek corridor may have grade changes or seasonal moisture, which can affect post depth and layout.
At Gleave Construction, subdivision guidelines, property lines, and Indiana 811 clearance are confirmed before installation begins. Each fence is planned for proper placement, stability, and long-term performance.

Huntertown Fence Permits & Zoning Requirements
Fences in Huntertown must comply with Town zoning standards and any applicable Allen County rules. Contact the Town of Huntertown office to confirm permit needs before installation.
Why This Matters: Subdivision covenants and easements often control more than town code. Verify zoning district, plats, and utilities first to prevent rework. Always consult the Town office for site-specific guidance.
| Category | What the City Requires |
|---|---|
| Permit Review | Zoning compliance required. Permits (such as an Improvement Location Permit) are often required for fences over 6 ft, front-yard placement, or accessory structures. Submit a site plan showing setbacks. |
| Front & Corner Lots | Maximum height typically 3–4 ft. Fences must preserve intersection visibility and cannot create sight obstructions. Corner lots follow dual front-yard rules. |
| Rear & Side Yards | Generally up to 6 ft in residential zones, though limits vary by district. Subdivision covenants may impose stricter requirements. |
| Pool Fencing | Must meet Indiana IRC requirements: typically a 4–6 ft enclosure with self-closing and self-latching gates. |
| Utility Clearance | State law (IC 8-1-26) requires calling Indiana 811 at least 2 full business days before digging. |
