Q: Why aren't 6' or 8' tall, stockade, wood fences allowed?
A: Seis Lagos has always been very committed to open spaces.  When you drive through the community you get to enjoy all of the common areas between the homes.  They did not want their subdivision to end up like so many you see, one wood fence on top of another wood fence.  Iron fencing is allowed, but the depth of the fencing is limited to about the width of the home and fences cannot extend out further than the sides of the home.  If you are looking for a typical, closed-in neighborhood where you can build a fort around your back yard, Seis Lagos is not the place to buy. 

Q: Why can't I fence my entire back yard with iron fencing?
A: See above.  If all of the Seis Lagos residents were allowed to fence their entire back and side yards, even with iron fencing, it would look terrible.  As it is, you can walk through all of the open areas and everyone gets to enjoy the open spaces.  Of course, you are required to iron fence around your pool and most pool owners just screen it with landscaping.
