A good point. If this bothers you enough, contact a lawyer who knows something about municipal regulation. Things like building permits are usually in a category called "ministerial." That means that there should be a set of objective criteria to qualify for the permit. If you meet the objective criteria, they have to issue you the permit.

I can't say for sure that's the case with your fence permit, but I'd be curious to hear the City Attorney explain why it's not the case.

Put up a closely spaced string of no-trespassing signs.
