A dispute between neighbors to a new regulation for backyard skateboard ramps in Vista. KPBS North County reporter Alexander Nguyen talks to neighbors involved and why they say it was needed.The Vista City Council unanimously approved an update to the city's code on Feb. 14, requiring residents who want to build a skateboard ramp that is more than 6 feet tall to apply for a use permit. The permit will cost $3,345 and will also specify that the ramps can only be used between 10 a.m. and 7 p.
This started after neighbors complained about Evandro Menezes' 12-foot ramp in his backyard. He said he's had it for more than 10 years without a problem until some new neighbors moved in. They were fine with the ramp initially, Menezes said. Other neighbors on the block said the problems have been bubbling up for years. Tom Payne lives in the house diagonally behind Menezes' backyard, and said the noise — whenever Menezes hosts an event — is deafening.
“They use it sporadically, like maybe a few times a day, but it never goes on for an hour or hours," she said."It's like if you have children, and they're playing in the yard or me outside feeding the dogs and feeding the birds and making my own noises."
