Sloped lots and the Escarpment
Burlington lets fences step up to 2.3 m (7 ft 6 in) on sloped ground as long as the lowest point of each section stays at 2 m (6 ft 6 in). On hilly lots, that keeps the top line level without breaking the bylaw.
Properties within Conservation Halton or Niagara Escarpment Commission areas need to check with those agencies before building. No permit is needed for a typical fence.
