What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? ILLINOIS
My Condo Assn is proposing the erection of a 6 foot privacy fence that would
run about 46 feet in length. The fence would be in close proximity to my unit.
I'm concerned about the possibility of someone being able to hide behind this
privacy fence and assaulting me in the future. I've expressed my concern to the Board but it looks like they may erect the fence anyway. I feel my safety will be compromised by this privacy fence that will act like a shield for a criminal to hide behind.
Would there be a legal liability issue here where I could sue the Condo Assn should I be damaged via assault, etc. due to the fact that the Condo Assn
created this area that a criminal can easily hide before attacking me? I intend to keep photographic proof of before & after to illustrate the safety of the area
being diminished by the privacy fence.
Any advice would be most welcome. Thank you.
