New Construction Fence + Shed Signs
New signage, color, and viewing panel requirements are now in effect for construction fences and sidewalk sheds. The new standards apply to fences and sheds with permits issued on or after July 1, 2013. The new signs improve construction site safety by providing easy access to contractor and project information - and these new requirements improve the overall appearance of job sites for communities.
For details on compliance requirements for construction fences and sheds permitted before July 1st, exemptions for one-, two- and three-family projects, and design requirements for demolition projects and smaller lots, see Local Law 47 of 2013.
