What fits on an Addison lot?
Side and rear privacy fences up to Addison’s 8-foot limit, shorter fences for front yards, gates of every kind, and the backyard work that goes with them: pergolas, patio covers, decks, patios and outdoor kitchens. Corner lots get extra attention, since the Town has its own limit there.
