My HOA is not enforcing bylaws for certain people. My neighborhood is overrun with owned cats that crap on my property. There are also two neighbors who allow their large dogs to roam the neighborhood. They refuse to issue fines. One of them is actually on the board. They told me to call animal control but animal control says there's no leash law where I live and they can't enforce unless the dog actually bites me or harasses or attack me or my dog on my own property. One of the dog owners also has a literal junkyard on their property and the HOA doesn't fine him for that either.
They are literally driving me crazy and I know nothing will change unless I file a lawsuit. Where do I start? Any advice on finding a good lawyer? Will the board have to pay my legal fees if they lose? If I win, how will I be sure bylaws get enforced? Or am I wasting my time?
I can't move. It's simply not an option bc of financial reasons.
