Well, I don't have the money available to waste on litigation and I don't feel those extra few feet offer anything for my property. I could press the issue and remove the fence but I'm sure the neighbors would then try to litigate themselves, which I don't have money to be wasting for.

either way, is it really asking that much for them to do their part?

No, it isn't too much to ask of them, but people are jerks. I think you had valid answers within the first few posts, but the problem is they all cost $$.

Get it surveyed, tear down fence, build new one (or don't). It sucks that they won't help out, but since it's all on your property they don't have to.

As soon as one of them tells me, "not my problem, its on your property", then I will go over there with my chainsaw and cut all that shit down and tear down the fence.

I got this.

Got quite a bit torn down today just using a sawzall. Now I just have to figure out how to keep these stumps from generating more crap. They were all on the fenceline with enough on my side to allow me to cut them.

Depending on what it is, it may require digging up and removing the root system. I had to do that with some bullshit the old man had growing in the rock wall by the driveway and on the north side of the house.

I saw some stuff at Menards (I think) called stump remover. Apparently just drill holes and pour it in and let it go to work.

no. Strict city codes.

I've done that. Good stuff.

If you are in the city-will they come out and survey for free?

When you do decide to sell-that will trigger a survey-and that may be the end of the discussion.

Beat him to the punch put a fence you can live with on the line with your adjoiner before he can put up his gaudy fence.

Thought about it. Hate fences and not willing to spend the money.
But I will beat the shit out of his fence. I wonder if I can paint my side of the fence?

He will sell in 5 years anyway. Just have that feeling.

City cant perform boundary surveys on private property. Its a conflict of interest.

That stump remover is just potassium nitrate you can just drill holes and pour in epsom salt or a ice melt with potassium chloride also.

Sale of home will trigger a lone or mortgage survey warning its not a legal survey. Loan companies use that as it satisfies tittle insurance. If you want a legal survey you have to pay for it extra.

Tordon RTU

Available at Orscheln or almost any other farm supply. Not the first time mentioned. Squirt on fresh cuts & it does not grow back.

why don't the Hatfields just start shooting at the McCoys?

Myself, I would go out on Sunday morning at daybreak with a Sawsall and address the fence on my property. But I would have those pins located before I did.

Harvest the weeds, roll 'em up in some big doobies, and smoke 'em in front of them. That'll learn 'em some lessons for sure!!
