| | HOA fence rules What is the name of your state? South Carolina
I built a fence around my property with in the guide lines of our covenants including paperwork given to me by the HOA. They have since told me that I must paint my fence white. There is no mention of paint color in the covenants, or in he paper work I signed.
All I want is to stain and seal my fence a natural color. The HOA has threatened others to paint their fences and they complied. Now the HOA is afraid of getting sued by them if the HOA doesn't make me paint mine. Do I have a leg to stand on in my fight to stain my fence. |

| | | What HG means is that you request it from them. If it's not in there, then you are good to go.

It is our unanimous opinion that you are damn right and it should be obvious to any moron that your (ex) (SO’s ex) (boss) (landlord) (local police) should be immediately (jailed) (fired) (reprimanded) (arrested) (demoted) (shot) (evicted).
In fact, you are so astonishingly correct in this matter, it will not surprise us one bit if you are offered a generous settlement, because, by golly, that’s just how it should be.
You Rock,
