FAQ
Among its main provisions, the Rent Ordinance: Regulates and limits rent increases for most rental units. Regulates and limits the grounds for which a landlord may terminate a tenancy, and may require relocation payments for tenants who are displaced from a rental unit through no fault of their own.
Side and Rear Yard: Fences may be up to six feet (6') tall and may be extended up to eight feet (8') with see- through fencing material, except in visibility zones. In visibility zones, no fence may exceed three feet (3') in height.
Most rental units in Alameda are fully regulated, i.e. all provisions of the Rent Ordinance apply.
Retaining walls that are not part of a building shall have a maximum height of 6 feet. Retaining walls with a height greater than 4 feet shall not have a horizontal measurement of greater than 20 feet per retaining wall, and 40 cumulative feet for all such walls.
Annual General Adjustment announced, effective September 1, 2024. Pursuant to Alameda Municipal Code Section 6-58.60(B), the Annual General Adjustment for September 1, 2024, through August 31, 2025, is 2.7%. The Annual General Adjustment is a cap on the allowed amount of annual rent increase.
The two-metre rule for fence height The two-metre rule applies here. This limit is for fences without planning permission. Fences exceeding two metres require local authority approval. Exceptions exist for front garden fences.
Under California's Building Code, you must obtain a permit before building a fence that will be over 6 feet tall unless the top 2 feet of the fence will be barbed wire. For a front yard fence, the maximum height is 42 inches. For a backyard fence, the maximum height is 72 inches.
2.0 metres (6 feet 7 inches) high in any portion of the rear yard or interior side yard.
Generally speaking, California building codes set a maximum height restriction at 4 feet for front yard fences and 6 feet for backyards. However, as Palmieri, Hennessey, and Leifer LLP note, “If your properties are on sloping land, the height limitation may vary at different points along the fence line.”
