Musk clashes with neighbors in exclusive Austin suburb | TechCrunch
Briefly

Residents of West Lake Hills, Texas, are resistant to Elon Musk's celebrity status and new security measures at his $6 million home. This includes an unauthorized 16-foot chain-link fence and armed security personnel, which have raised concerns among neighbors. Paul Hemmer, a local resident and homeowners association president, describes Musk's property as excessively fortified and expresses fear about the implications of his celebrity lifestyle. Musk's past infractions regarding construction permits further exacerbate tensions within the community.
"I call that place Fort Knox," says Paul Hemmer, a Tesla owner and retired real estate agent who lives across the street and serves as president of the neighborhood homeowners association.
"If you follow him at all in the news, he's always guilty of building stuff and then asking for permission later," Hemmer complained in a planning meeting.
