A over the air antenna works best if there are no obstructions between you and the TV tower. If ARC says put is where it points directly into your neighbor's roof, that may not work properly. You have the FCC on your side because the law says you put it where it needs to go so that it works properly.
ARC cannot block locating it where it works best, no matter where that location might be. Even if that happens to be on a tall tower.

The FCC page on OTA Devices Rule has a useful Q and A section. Search for the question that begins: Q: What restrictions prevent reception of transmission of an acceptable quality signal? Can a homeowners association or other restricting entity establish enforceable preferences for antenna locations?
A: Enforceable placement preferences must be clearly articulated in writing and made available to all residents of the community in question. ... The ARC CAN block locating it from where it works *best*. What they cannot do is block locating it from where it works *acceptably*.
