Smell from a neighbor's or farmer's property. Options for resolving the issue
In our SNT, there are two fields with plots, and between them we poured the road and took the land under the road for rent for 50 years. Agricultural land with the possibility of erecting buildings up to three floors. But here is some enterprising person who took a plot along this road (the isthmus, as we call it) - also on lease and built a small farm there: he breeds geese.
He settled down very comfortably: the road was made for him, he did not invest a dime in it. He is not a member of SNT, he does not pay dues. He also has no costs for maintaining the road (graveling in summer and cleaning snow from winter). But this is on his conscience, as they say. And one could close our eyes to all this, if not one "but": from his farm comes a pungent smell from dung and manure.
There was an attempt to talk to him, to explain the situation. He seems to understand everything, but he has one argument: I rented a plot for this activity, I do not plan to stop doing it. He promised to dispose of manure better, but this remained only in words. He has no vegetable gardens - everything remains on the site and smells. I have no idea how people live in other areas next to him.
SanPiNs and pollution standards do not apply here. There are no evaluation criteria. Write complaints to the district police officer? Well, she'll talk, and what's next?
There are requirements of SanPiN 2.2.1 / 2.1.1.1200-03 "Sanitary protection zones and sanitary classification of enterprises, structures and other facilities." There seems to be a sanitary zone of 50 meters for keeping cattle up to 50 heads. And in our case, the farmer is engaged in poultry farming. What kind of protection zone should be?
According to the law, we cannot obstruct his passage to our site. He drives his ATV across the fields. Does not use a barrier across the central passage. What can you do with such a neighbor? The question is still in limbo.
Petty hooliganism in his direction will not help - only oppose. Some of his neighbors did the school thing: they poured glue over the lock. He announced this fact to our chairman of SNT and, if repeated, promised to take countermeasures.
What to do? My position is to negotiate, discuss with arguments. Explaining that he is not welcome here will have a bad aura in his direction. )))
My thoughts are:
- Offer to join SNT (let's say he will need electricity someday), oblige him to pay dues and vote at the general meeting for fulfilling the criteria for the disposal of animal products;
- Write complaints to the district administration, to Rospotrebnadzor and the prosecutor's office - so that he would also be pressured;
- To file a lawsuit with different wording: not disposing of livestock products leading to pollution the environment with toxic and corrosive gases, odors that interfere with normal living in this area other people;
- Help in the disposal of goose droppings: build a sealed cesspool for him to store manure. And the compensation of costs must be agreed upon under the contract - with payment on a monthly basis (interest-free) to SNT. For each member of the SNT, the amount will be small, but it will be credited back in parts (towards the membership). Buy yourself clean air.
- Offer to move, lease land elsewhere. It hardly helps. But under what circumstances the farmer would do it - it will be interesting to hear.
I know that our situation is not unique. If someone had or has such situations with neighbors and how you solved the issue - write in the comments. Often an outside thought helps to resolve seemingly insoluble issues.
