The Cowboys’ upcoming training camp has cast an unwelcome shadow for several Southern California locals, who hired attorneys and filed a complaint to the city of Oxnard this week after the team built a tall, temporary structure inches from their properties without notice, they told The Dallas Morning News.
Until mid-August, the team will use the tent-like platform to entertain special guests during camp practices in Oxnard, a club spokesperson said. Neighbors whose backyards border the white-tarped deck said the project has compromised their security and privacy, obstructed a view for which they paid a premium, blocked essential garden sunlight and ultimately reduced their home value.
Issues with construction workers also were reported.
