How can I ask my neighbor to move theor compost pile?

My neighbor has recently started to compost and their pile is within 15 feet of my garage. This is causing an increase in flies coming into my house. I am all for them composting, I would just like them to move it the the back of their yard versus the side. I would like to address it with them first as our city ordinances state that is needs to be in the back of yard and 5 feet off the property line. I would just like to not get the city involved. Thoughts? Also I live in Passive Agressive Minnesota and have found that being upfront and asking for things creates angry neighbors :(
