In Khmelnytskyi region, a woman set up a chicken coop in the yard of a high-rise building: the case went to court.

In Shepetivka, in the Khmelnytskyi region, a man filed a lawsuit against his neighbor because she decided to create a chicken coop and a compost pit right under his windows. The man claimed that this caused an unpleasant odor and violated sanitary norms.

The court reviewed the case and decided to accept the lawsuit, obliging the neighbor to keep the birds at least 15 meters away from the man's house and to place the compost site no closer than 20 meters from the house, in accordance with the established legal norms.

The man made entirely justified claims: 'He protested against the unpleasant smell and violations of sanitary norms. He turned to the State Service for Food Safety and Consumer Protection and the administrative inspection many times, but there was no result.'

After the ruling was issued, the woman filed an appeal, but the first instance was upheld, and the chicken coop along with the compost site must be moved in accordance with the law's requirements.
