Our village board went to our neighbors and vets to get them to write letters against us for having more dogs than the limit (we had just moved from a county that allowed our number of pets, and were hoping to get an exception). The neighbors called the cops on us and went to the board, who then tried to find as many neighbors as possible to write letters about us. We have never had any complaints or incidents. Is it legal to encourage slander and this type of communication in a neighborhood to resolve an issue? Not one neighbor addressed this ever with us indirectly or directly. They also contacted our vet asking for private health information about our pets, without first asking if this was ok. Can we sue our village board for their conduct during this pet issue?
