Yes, if your property is located in the shoreland zone or in a 100 year floodplain, or if you're looking to construct a fence over 8-feet.

2. Does the good side of the fence go out?

Maine State Law and local ordinances do not require the good side to be toward your neighbor.

3. How tall can a fence be?

Maine State Law provides that a fence over six feet may be considered a “spite fence” and ordered removed.
