I have had good neighbors on either side for all the time I have lived here. The one across the street has been a challenge, though.

BUT these are the type problems that John was in charge of with the City as Code Enforcement Officer. It is obvious from your photos that the neighbor "removed" the berm that was created to protect your property from his water runoff. I fully understand your not wanting to get into a battle with this guy but the problem will get worse over time and be very costly. The City will come out and look even though they may not be willing to get involved. With one of our homes where the same happened, we had to hire an drainage expert to correct the problem or else continue to incur even bigger expenses. Call your City (or county) Govt. and ask for The Building Official.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
