The Dividing Fences Act 1991 outlines how the costs of constructing, repairing, or replacing a dividing fence are shared between adjoining landowners. While the Act sets minimum requirements, neighbours may agree to alternative arrangements. Dividing fences are a private matter between adjoining landowners and are not within the City's jurisdiction. For further information on fencing notices, cost sharing, dispute resolution, and other matters relating to dividing fences, please refer to the following link to the Dividing Fences Act 1991.
