$24 standard · $9 with TEXAS
The current offer takes $15 off. EasySitePlan makes a preliminary permit plan, not a certified survey. A refund applies only when a rejection is caused by something the eligibility check should have caught.
Preliminary guidance only. Verify the current package for your address before filing.
Permit package asks for your property survey
Limited repairs and some agricultural or garden fencing can be exempt. The city’s published repair thresholds differ across pages, so confirm before relying on an exemption.
The local drawing requirement
Use the survey from your closing documents
The city directs owners to mark the proposed fence on a property survey. It does not offer an applicant-drawn plot plan as an equivalent on this checklist.
Before you file
- Mark the fence location, height, and material on the property survey.
- Keep front-yard fences at or below 4 feet and at least 50% open.
- Side and rear residential fences are generally limited to 6 feet.
- Submit through the city’s current online permit portal.
Product fit
EasySitePlan cannot replace Georgetown’s requested survey
A generated plan may help you think through placement, but use the official property survey for the permit package unless Georgetown confirms another document.
The boundary
EasySitePlan does not certify boundaries, replace a required survey, provide engineering, submit the permit, or guarantee approval.
