Townsend & Walland Fence Questions
The quiet side of the Smokies — acreage, split rail and the steepest ground in Blount County.
Do Blount County or city rules apply here?
Townsend is incorporated with its own ordinance; Walland and the surrounding acreage are unincorporated Blount County, which exempts fences under ten feet from both permit and setback requirements, subject to vision clearance. That is four feet more than the City of Maryville allows.
Is there a setback from the property line in the county?
The ordinance does not state one for standard residential fences under ten feet. But the fence must sit entirely on your land and must not encroach into a right-of-way or easement — "no stated setback" is not the same as anywhere.
What fence suits foothill acreage?
Split rail and board fence look right here and handle grade change gracefully. For livestock, woven wire and high-tensile. On long runs, corner and gate bracing decides whether it holds — not the wire.
How much does slope add?
Commonly 10 to 25 percent to installed cost, and toward the mountains it can be more. Runs must be stepped or racked to follow grade, and steeper ground means more posts and more labor per foot.
What about rock?
Shallow bedrock is common as you climb. Post holes will not simply auger, and the cheap response — setting the post shallower — is the one that leans first. Ask what a contractor does at rock.
How do I handle a line running through woods?
Clear the line first and establish the boundary before setting anything. Tennessee has no statute drawing your line — the deed and county plat govern, and on wooded tracts a survey usually costs less than moving fence later.
Will a fence keep wildlife out?
Partly, and we would not overpromise. No residential fence is bear-proof. For deer, height decides it. For dogs and smaller animals, gap spacing at the bottom does more than height does.
What does fencing cost out here?
Farm and split rail roughly $12–30 per linear foot, wood privacy $14–50, ornamental aluminum $24–70 — before slope. Costs by length.
Who owns a fence between two properties?
A partition fence under Tennessee Code 44-8-202. Adjoining owners generally share ownership and upkeep, and where one property is agricultural and the other is not, the non-agricultural owner may file a written disclaimer. Full explanation.
Do I have to call 811 before digging?
Yes — post holes count as excavation. About three business days. On acreage, private runs to barns, wells, pumps and septic fields are common and never marked. Full 811 guide.
Summarized from the Blount County Zoning Regulations, current as of 2026. City of Townsend requirements should be confirmed with the city. Call (865) 988-9935.
