Q.  If I erect a boundary fence, does my neighbour have to pay half?

A.  Dividing fences are a civil matter; the Department of Housing & Works produces a Dividing Fences brochure that provides guidance to property owners. Copies of the brochure available at the Shire Administration Office. For further information visit the Department of Housing & Works website at: www.dhw.wa.gov.au//193_359.asp#role
