Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Connecticut
Limited Common ground
I live in a condominium association with 4 other ''cluster homes''. We govern ourselves based on the association bi-laws.
The issue I have concerns ''limited common ground''.
There are 2 types of spaces on the grounds - common and limited common ground. My understanding of limited common ground is that it is mine but is under the scrutiny of the association as far as what I do to it on it. Example: build a pool, patio, deck etc....This would have to be presented and voted on at a meeting.
There is a fence the borders the entire property of the association. The fence in our backyard needs to be replaced. I have been told that I need to replace the fence at my own cost. My arguement is that the fence is on limited common ground and should be replaced at the cost of the association because it is in the best interest of the association to keep it uniform and upkept.
Recently, we needed repair of the driveway(common ground) and parking areas (limited common ground) and the association paid for the job. To me this is a similar situation.
Who should pay for the fence to be fixed?

Re: Limited Common ground
I'd have to read the documents, but usually LCG is paid by you and CG is an assn expense.
