Before you build in Rosenberg
- Who approves it

- Permit
- The city's residential builder packet lists fences over 7 feet as a permit item, which suggests lower fences may not need one. That is our reading, so confirm with the city.

What to plan for
- Newer subdivisions usually have an HOA. Get approval before you build.
- In low-lying yards, tell us where water runs after a storm. It changes where we put the fence line, gates and posts.
- Confirm whether your address is inside city limits before you assume which rules apply.
