00:00My neighbor has a fence, and they denied my request for a fence.

00:05But it can't seep on into the grass area.

00:08It's so unreasonable.

00:10I put in a request to my HOA and said,

00:12we can approve a partial fence because your neighbor has one.

00:16I said, perfect, I'll take it.

00:18She's building it for her senior dog's final months.

00:21Because then I can just kind of restrict her movement, right?

00:23Well, because today, moments ago,

00:26I got an email that they were denying my claims.

00:28I gave the same specifications as this fence.

00:32I even hired the guy who made her fence.

00:35Work stopped halfway when the HOA stepped in.

00:37We have post holes dug, but it's denied.

00:40They didn't give me an answer.

00:41Do I just build it and get fined?

00:42Because that's insane.

00:44The same fence, the same height, the same length,

00:48the same contractor, the same aesthetics.

00:51Can they actually deny this?

00:53The HOA was not ready for me.

00:55And the thing about me is I'm going to be a menace.

00:57And needless to say, that's exactly what she did.

01:03I was told by the office worker this morning that the denial reason was because in the bylaws,

01:07it states that there can be no fencing on the property in order to maintain a clean,

01:13uniform aesthetic.

01:15And I say, cool, but my neighbor has a fence.

01:18And she said, well, that's because hers is built up on a platform,

01:21and it doesn't interfere with landscaping.

01:23I want an appointment with the board to appeal because I want these people to look me in my eyeballs

01:28and tell me that based on a rule written back in the 80s,

01:32that my baby cannot have a fence to just sit and be in her yard and in the grass for the remainder of her life.

01:40I sent them a letter, very formally written, pointed all of this out,

01:43and said the only two options here are to either uniformly enforce this and allow me to have a fence

01:48or tell her to take it down.

01:50She's been here 20 years.

01:52She got the HOA on the phone.

01:53She has hers connected to her deck, which is allowed because it adds technically like a private fit,

02:00a privacy fit.

02:01Okay.

02:02That's connected to the deck, so you can be private between you and your neighbor.

02:06So we're not allowing anything that's in the grass section because it will interfere with the lawn care.

02:13Oh, I mean, it won't because you can mow around things, but that's not the point.

02:17I can put in a request to have it coming off my deck.

02:20That's perfect.

02:21That's what we'll do.

02:22Her response left them speechless.

02:24But it can't seep on into the grass area.

02:27But hers is in the grass area.

02:29Hers goes out 15 feet.

02:31We measured.

02:32I'm trying to meet them in the middle, and I'm trying to be reasonable.

02:36And they are being picky.

02:38It's so unreasonable.

02:40I am very logical, and I am asking for a few months of a partial yard for my dog.

02:46I'll take it down when she passes.

02:48Like, it's not an unreasonable request, and I want them to look me in my eyes and tell me why.

02:55That's what I want to hear, and I want to hear something other than it's in the rules.

02:58Now she's joining the HOA to fix things herself.
