HOA Sold Backyard Land for Road Project | Boise News
Description
In Fieldcrest, homeowners are furious after their HOA sold off common land—including parts of five backyards—to the Idaho Transportation Department for a road expansion. Olivia Rueppel, who just bought her home and landscaped heavily, discovered 16 feet of her yard was actually HOA property, undisclosed at closing. The HOA argues residents should’ve gotten surveys, but neighbors feel blindsided—and now they’re each getting less than $900 from the $175K sale. With fences built by developers and legal rules dating back to 2007, confusion reigns. One neighbor even sued but dropped it due to costs. The road project isn’t done until 2028—leaving homeowners stuck with the fallout.
