ISO Advice on a 6' fence placement - is it LEGAL?
Recently, I found out that my 6' fence to my new (to-be-built) house is placed on a decline (hill) so that when I stand on the property, the fence is actually 3'. Is this legal, given the description from the builder that fence is 6'?
Has anyone had this happened to them? What are my options to place the responsibility on the builder?
Thank you in advance for your guidance!

If the Actual fence is 6’ tall....then it is 6’ tall. It doesn’t matter what it “looks like” from an uphill slope.
