Carol, that stinks. Some questions/thoughts for you. And it really riles me when the structure of this 'friendliest' community plays the 'I don't do windows' game and sloughs it off to another agency.

See if there's a Lake County Animal control, not city level, county level.

You may have to get a lawyer to read covenants and restrictions.To lessen that cost it would seem really sensible for you and some of your like minded neighbors to work as one. Maybe, if your right to the enjoyment of your property is being violated, see if you can bring a suit for a money judgement. Again, you'd have to talk with an admitted attorney (I am not one.)

Who owns the property? You go to the Lake County clerk's records and make copies of the deed. That's a time saver ($$) with regard to the lawyer I would guess.

Who are these people? Are they the owners? Tenants? If tenants, maybe owner contact would help.

A situation like this happened to good friends of mine back in Long Island several years ago. They got a lawyer and went after the owner and matters were resolved happily. The tenants chose to live elsewhere.

Carol, you are not without some good arrows in your quiver. Hope my thoughts helped.
