I live in a free standing townhouse in California that I purchased more than a year ago. In the last week, they installed a pet waste disposal unit (where owners can throw dog feces) in front on my townhome. I have contacted my builder to find out my property line and he wouldn't give me that information. I do think it is outside my property line, but very close to it. The property manager did not contact me in advance to installing the disposal unit.
I have a medical condition that compromises my immune system. I would not have chosen to purchase a property that had this pet waste disposal unit next to it. I also think it degrades the value of my home when it comes to resale. The unit has only been in place for a week, but I have noticed a dramatic increase in the number of flies near my townhome. When a pet owner stops to take a bag to pick up the feces, I also noticed that many of the dogs urinate near the unit.
My property manager would not move this unit and said I would have to air my greivances at the next HOA meeting. I want to know what my rights are. I am concerned that the flies that touch the feces can spread bacteria and disease that I would be especially susceptible to. It also can't be good for resale.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
