If the fence is yours - ie your boundary and on your land then the neighbor has no right to attach anything to it (without your permission).

No. In fact no part of your neighbors roof or anything attached to that roof can even protrude over your fence. Most places have laws specifically stating how far away from your property line they have to keep their buildings.

Can neighbor use fence on your property?

If a neighbor wanted to install a fence the fence has to be on the neighbors property entirely. Not half the fence on your side and half on the neighbors side. There are also zoning regulations that deal with issues like this. Some counties will not allow a fence to be over five feet tall and they have to be constructed using only approved materials. I know that in my neighborhood metal fences are against code and they can only be constructed using fence block. If I were you I would call the city planning office and ask them, they will have a definitive answer. Who knows, maybe the fence was put up without the proper permits and your neighbor has to take the entire thing down.
