question iconI own a home in a subdivision in Arapahoe county. I would like to extend an existing fence toward the front of the property and raise it to 6ft. I discussed it with the neighbor who said no. I offered to pay for the entire fence rebuild. There are no HOA covenants or county laws that prevent the changes that I can find. Do I have any recourse? can I build a second fence inside the existing fence and extend this to fence on my property (inside my property line but close to it) to fence more of my side yard?

Generally, you do not need your neighbor's approval to build on your property. As such, your idea of building inside the property line on your property is likely a good idea. If you need to discuss the details or more clearly analysis your rights and risks you should schedule a case assessment by calling 303=-688-0944 we'll coordinate a time to discuss the facts and law more precisely.
