Man’s hilarious response to “nosy” neighbour who complained about his fence

A man has decided to hold a silent protest after receiving a zoning violation from the city of Santa Rosa, California, due to a neighbour complaining that his fence was too high.

Jason Windus was the recipient of the violation after a neighbour reported his six-foot-fence for blocking a suburban corner and obstructing visibility for drivers at an intersection, as reported by ABC 6.

Speaking to the station, Mr Windus said that he was confronted with a warning informing him of a daily fine that will be put in place until the fence was taken down.

“It is very serious,” he said. “They made me freak out.”

Mr Windus immediately took down the fence with some help from a friend, but due to height restrictions, the newly modified fence is unable to contain his two dogs.

With the height of his fence being out of his control, the professional mover decided to take some control back in hilarious fashion – by rearranging an assortment of naked mannequins so it appears that they’re having a clothing-optional garden party.

“I guess the average person would get angry and cop resentment?” said Mr Windus. “I throw a naked party in my yard.”

And despite the height of his fence crossing the boundaries of legalities, his life-sized dummies are well within the law.

To keep the display PG, Mr Windus even took the liberty to cover the mannequins' private parts.

And the party was open for all, especially the “nosy” neighbour who reported the fence in the first place, with a sign reading: “Reserved seat for the nosy neighbour that complained about my fence to the city.”

The anonymous neighbour is yet to respond and remains unidentified.

But while the whistleblower may not be a huge fan of the installation, others cannot get enough.

“I love it. I think it’s hilarious. More power to him,” a neighbour told NBC.

The only regret Mr Windus has is that his two dogs have nowhere to run around.

But despite that, he’s having a grand ol’ time, saying he hasn’t decided on when the mannequins will be packed away.

Joking to  NBC, he said: “I was thinking of putting a barbecue out here next.”

Do you think Mr Windus has the right to be frustrated? Or was the neighbour right for reporting his fence? Let us know in the comments below.
