What is the maximum allowable height for a fence in a residential zone?

1.5 meters
2.0 meters
2.5 meters
3.0 meters

The correct answer is: 2.0 meters

A fence in a residential zone typically has a maximum allowable height of 2.0 meters. Option A is incorrect because 1.5 meters is too low for most fences in a residential area. Option C and D are also incorrect because 2.5 meters and 3.0 meters are considered too high for a residential fence and may violate local zoning laws. It is important to follow the regulations for fence height in your area to avoid any fines or legal issues. Therefore, the most accurate and appropriate answer to this question is option B.
