| In my experience, Animal Control does crap, but at least a report has been made.  It's a difficult situation because the fear approach is dealing with possible futures not actual dangerous events.  However, I would definitely ask about tether laws in your city.  My city has a law that you cannot tether a dog.  Not all cities have this law, however and it is perfectly legal to tie up a dog.  
 For your own safety, always walk the girls with a spray bottle filled with a mixture of vinegar and water.  Spraying this on an attacking dog will usually deter the attacker.  Pepper spray is also an option.
 
 A letter to the property manager is probably the best bet to start with.
