Aurora Colorado Fence and Solar Permit Guide

Aurora fence work must follow construction, design, location, and setback standards, while solar projects use dedicated permit checklists and inspection resources.

Permit takeaway

Aurora neighborhood zoning guidance says a fence permit is not required for new or replacement fences, while solar applicants should use solar photovoltaic permit checklists and inspection resources.

Zoning and placement

Fence placement, solar equipment placement, zoning restrictions, property lines, and utility-locate requirements should be checked before work starts.

Building and trade review

Aurora permits solar and wind systems in all zone districts subject to underlying zone restrictions, and solar permits may be submitted electronically through Aurora4Biz.

Call before applying when

Call before installing a fence near property lines, utilities, easements, corners, or drainage areas, or before applying for solar with batteries, structural roof questions, or nonstandard equipment.
