Official CRC forms live on the Somerset Community Association site (somerset98006.org/procedures-and-forms). Typical fence work uses Form B (minor remodel) plus Fence Guidelines. Use our checklist to assemble drawings and samples, then file with the CRC. Email: crc@somerset98006.org.

Somerset CRC fence process

1

Confirm your division’s covenants

Most Somerset lots sit under CC&Rs; a few divisions do not. Check your plat or ask the CRC before you design. City of Bellevue permits do not replace CRC approval.

2

Design for slope and views

Somerset is a view community. CRC can weigh neighbor sightlines. Hogwire or mixed privacy/open runs often fit hillside lots better than a solid wall on the downslope edge.

3

Complete Form B and file with the CRC

Download current Form B and Fence Guidelines from somerset98006.org. Attach a site plan, elevations, materials, and finish samples. Email the packet to crc@somerset98006.org. Do not start construction until you have written approval.

4

Install to the approved plan

We build slope-following panels—cedar privacy where you want enclosure, hogwire or hybrid where you want the vista—exactly as the CRC approved.

What makes fencing HOA-approved in Somerset

The Covenants Review Committee looks at height, design, placement, and whether the fence cuts a neighbor’s view. Hillside lots add engineering: panels that follow grade, posts that hold in wind, and finishes that match the street. MyFence.com prepares CRC packets with those drawings already in place.

  • Division CC&Rs confirmed before the design is locked
  • View-impact notes and neighbor context included in the packet
  • Form B (or Form A if CRC directs) with drawings and finish samples
  • Slope-following Fence Genius panels engineered for hillside wind load

Somerset HOA approved fencing FAQs

What is Somerset HOA approved fencing?

It means your fence follows Somerset Community Association covenants and Covenants Review Committee approval—height, design, and view impact included—before install. CRC review is separate from a Bellevue building permit.

What forms does Somerset require for a new fence?

Most fence projects use Form B (minor remodel) plus the Fence Guidelines posted at somerset98006.org. Use the checklist on this page to assemble drawings, then email crc@somerset98006.org.

Does every Somerset lot have CC&Rs?

Most do, but a few divisions (including parts of Division 16 and Somerset East 3) may not. Confirm with your title documents or the CRC before you design.

Do I need approval before installation?

Yes, if your lot is under CC&Rs. Starting without CRC approval can force removal. We schedule Somerset installs after written clearance.
