IMO, this loosely translates to... I'm not a lawyer, but I once saw Judge Judy on the street. (Standard PattyLand Disclaimer) FWIW, all posts reflect nothing more than my personal opinion, based on nothing factual, subject to change and God knows, I could be wrong. |

I asked him about this subject when the thread was started, he researched it a bit as a hypothetical, and there are legal remedies and ways to notice the correct parties and agencies in the hope of avoiding a bigger mess. The goal was to have the neighbor comply with the ARC restrictions and be certain they enforce same. Having proper notice beforehand should prompt them to do so. Now if a barrier planted fence was still installed, the person in the black robe can fault the proper party accordingly, especially with evidence of written notice. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_82jYjcjk6w...ies_498915.jpg . |
So many thoughts, opinions and attitudes. I still think everything boils down to communication and respect, not just rights and ownership, it is a package deal. No one "has" to tell their neighbors anythng that they are doing within restrictions and covenants on their own property, but sometimes it is good to share before things are done to help people overcome fear, speculation, wonderment, or to hear any specific concerns that can ruin relationships for decades to come. Does not mean you cannot, should not do what is within your rights on your own land, just means you build trust and friendship and neighborhood goodwill. While not there yet but on our way soon to our new home, we still have our old home. Today I am having a party for all my staff at my home with 60 plus people coming over at 3 pm, a BBQ catering truck coming and setting up a smoker, a handicapped porta potti delivered on the property as one of my staff uses an electric wheelchair for her CP. Rather than upset everyone, even though it is not their business, I sent an email to all my neighbors letting them know the score so they were prepared and understood what was going on. I have a half acre, no one can see anything, but people do see anyway, if you know what I mean. On August 25, we are having an evening party with a live band and about 60-70 people (our last bash but no one knows the real reason why the party is happening including the attendees as we have not announced our move yet!). Aside from inviting some neighbors, everyone in the neighborhood will get an email with details so they again know what is going on and be assured the music will be quiter at the 10 pm town curfew for noise. They will be aware of why the cars are out on our lane, and why they may here music and a crowd. I do not have to tell them, I am within all guidelines. But it brings peace and harmony and people feel respected. When our neighbors built a fence between us after the tall hedge died, we fully consulted on how to remedy the situation and also gave them money to help out. We are all adults. We can do what we want but we live in community. It is not about who can do what, but about how we live in harmony together, reach out to one another in times or distress or emergency, have one another over for visits, care for pets or yard or homes or elderly or whatever when someone is away, and mostly have long term relationships that are at minimum respectful and pleasant for all of our happiness. If we cannot have peace together in our little villages, what does that mean for the world? Well, I guess we see that on the news everyday.

Jane, I am truly looking forward to being one of your neighbors.

here is was stated Quote:
That's when the notices go out, U don't need a lawyer to send letters, just write out the facts and your understanding of the code to the neighbor, ARC and the developer perhaps. If you don't complain it appears that u have no objection or acquiesce to the project. Hard to argue your position after the fact. No matter how arrogant he may have appeared at the time he was asked he knows you're not going to let him violate the code and your rights as a secondary beneficiary of those codes. Yes he can anything on his property within the code, but can't violate that code. We drank the kool aid thinking that there were rules, codes and guidelines in place to insure quit enjoyment. That make sense? . |
If he is within the deeds restrictions requirements, you have no position.
What Happi said was she found out he was in compliance, after eliminating 10-15 feet of shrubs. Done deal. Matter closed. |

So is it done???????????? Please tell me it is so. I am beginning to have nightmares about landscaping, views, dogs and now lawyers.
|
sorry to hear it. check to see if their landscape plan was approved.
you can also complain about the dog barking. however, it sounds pretty bad. |

I know that some home owners think that confrontation and warnings from lawyers will work in disputes with neighbours. But if it's a landscaping issue, and your neighbour is proceding with ARC approval, I say accept the inevitable with grace and charity. |
We can hardly wait to hear what Happinow has to say about the final results. Are you Happi now?

You know what I always say, least said, soonest mended.

Hmmmm......

I was told by the sales agent that although physical fences were not allowed, we could establish an arbor fence for privacy. I wonder if your neighbor was given the same info.
