I'm pretty sure if you told him you would pay for a new fence if you could move it back a few feet and you would either remove or maintain the weeds and bushes, he would probably kiss your ass and thank you removing his headache. Nobody gives a shit about 3 feet of property. He just doesn't want to bust his ass chopping hedge. Nor does he want to pay for a new fence, because that shit's expensive. And I don't blame him.

You dont own property do you? I believe its 5 feet and people go to court and spend 1000s of dollars over 6 inches of property. Its my understanding the fence was there when he bought the lot and he has a certificate showing ths the fence is 5 feet over the line into his property. That he has is piece of paper without the pins at the corners so he needs those before even considering moving the fence. The 5 foot strip is more valuable that a fence considering the price of urban property and he is paying the taxes on that land not the neighbor. I think he just doesnt want to be a dick to his neighbor but he might have to. Honestly id get a survey with fence line stakes and begin the process of moving the fence.
