Shared boundary fences

If you share a property boundary with a council owned reserve and a new fence needs building or replacing council can help cover up to 50 per cent of the cost.

Check out the Shared Boundary Fencing guidelines below for more information and conditions.


This application will assist you in building a fence which shares a boundary with one of our parks or reserves. Please complete the form, and supply a quote, if you would like Council to contribute to the cost of a common boundary fence.
