We moved in to a retirement coop about 6 months ago. we were told that we could have two pets. We have a cat and a dog. When the snow started melting, our neighbors noticed that we hadn't picked up all the poop and they complained to the owners. We got a notice that we needed to do something or futher action would be taken. We got a pooper scooper and have since been very loyal pooper scoopers. Now they want to charge everybody here a pet deposit. I stated that the pets that are already here should be grandfathered in, but any pets after this should pay the deposit. He was very snide (I feel) with me and said that he would not allow that to happen. Of course at that time I told him I felt intimidated and also had to leave the meeting. Later that evening I found out I was elected chairman of the "pet deposit task force". I'm going to my second meeting now to let them know I decline the nomination. I feel it was done out of spite anyway, but we'll see. My question is, do they have the right to impose the pet deposit after the fact?
