Firethorne is a master-planned community in the Katy area with an association that reviews home modifications. Fence questions here start with the association, not the county.
Who governs fences here

About this area
Firethorne is a roughly 1,400-acre Katy-area community south of I-10, with a lake and nature reserve, resort-style pools, sports fields and trails. It is run by an elected board with an on-site general manager, which makes the association office a practical first call about fence approval. Most homes date from the mid-2000s onward, so many fences here are reaching the age when posts and boards get a second look.
