Warning long read; skip to end for TL;DR
So as some of you have read on here I have a noisy neighbor, after contacting the condo board that I live in they said that all they can do is send letters and fine them for disruption, other than that to get results we will need to call police non-emergency, and so it begins
Last week we called the police non-emergency (NE) as he was doing base testers for a good part of an hour, the noise was so loud it was shaking the exterior of the building across from us, as well the neighbor on the opposite side of us could hear it. About 15 minutes after placing the call the noise stopped, I called the NE back and cancelled the call. Friday night last week, noise continued into the AM, we couldn't sleep so the wife asked me to call NE again, about 20 minutes after the noise stopped, called NE back and cancelled the call.
Queue Saturday night, noise continued, it actually woke me up this time, called NE and they responded quite quickly and the noise stopped, I called NE back and they said that an officer had been on premises and that's probably why the noise stopped.
All this week the noise has been fairly quite, there would be some times when the noise would spike but it would quickly subside and wasn't too bothersome...
Note: Called Non-Emergency was the only option provided by the Condo board as either the letters were not working or they weren't even sending them
Yesterday I took the day off, I was working in my driveway changing from winter to all season tires on my car, the neighbor came home, introduced himself and apologized for the noise, said he wasn't used to living in a townhouse, then he asked me if I called the Police on Saturday, not knowing him or how the situation would play out I said no. He gave me his business card and said it has his cell on it and if the noise gets too much to just text him and he'll turn it down. Finally he stated that he didn't want to make enemies which I completely agreed to, I went on my way and him on his.
Now for today, I was cleaning out my garage, taking garbage to the bins and he was out talking to our other neighbor. he obviously had been drinking as you could smell it quite strongly. The truth came out that I was the one who called the Police and then it was night and day, he started threatening me that if I ever called the police again he would 'Punch my Face in', I asked him WTF then he said it again and this time said he would 'Kick my Head in'. I left, went back to my own garage but he followed me and kept with the threats and would not leave. My wife was home and came to see what the commotion was about and he ended up throwing racial slurs and verbally abusing her, she had enough and called the Police (911 this time)
Police came and basically said because he is this drunk he doesn't know what he is saying and that because he was in his garage when they came they can't do anything despite the fact he came into our garage to threaten me and my wife.
After the Police came I contacted the condo board yet again, and again was told nothing they can do as it is now a Police matter. The police officers said the condo board has the power to evict him if they want, Police officer also said that they have seen him and dealt with him before at his previous residence.
TL;DR; Called police non emergency because condo board not doing anything about noise complaints, neighbor takes offence and threatens to verbally assault me if they are called again. Condo board says nothing they can do, Police said this is up to the condo board to fix
Now do I go about getting a retraining order? I can't move as we own and I don't have a down payment for another house
