Indiana
I recently purchased a house and had a fence installed. Prior to the installation I submitted the required forms and a drawing of the proposed fence to the HOA for approval and received a letter indicating that my request had been approved as submitted. The installation of the fence was completed about a month ago, after I received approval from the HOA and city. Today, I received a letter from the HOA indicating that my fence was to close to the street and would need to be moved to the back corner of the house. The drawing I submitted clearly indicated that the fence was to be installed even to the front of the house. The cost to move the fence and wasted materials will be pretty significant. Can the HOA force me to move the fence? Even though I had approval prior to the installation.
