Wendell permits for decks and fences
Wendell's process, from the Town's building permit page:
- The Wendell Planning Department handles all building permits in town limits and the ETJ.
- Wendell staff do a zoning setback inspection before any Wake County inspection.
- Wake County Building and Inspections does the building inspections under contract.
- Wake County and Town permit fees are paid through the portal or at Wendell Town Hall.
For fences, we confirm height and placement with Wendell Planning before we set posts.
We call 811 before we dig any footing or post hole. North Carolina law asks for at least three full working days' notice so utilities can mark their lines.
