Review your governing documents to determine whether or not board permission is required to install a fence -- or not.
Read your purchase documents to identify the permissions requested and given for the installation of the fence -- if permission is required under your governing documents.
If you installed the fence, requested permissions and they were granted, you followed the guidelines and potentially have a 'legal fence'.
If the fence was installed without permission when permission was required, you may be required to move it.
If no permission is required, you may have a basis upon which to refuse to move your fence.
Otherwise, there may be other reasons why the association wants you to move your fence, in which case the association may want to help you pay to move it, or cover the cost entirely.
