Can you file a nuisance complaint with the code enforcement office? Not sure how quickly that could get the problem solved or if they are in violation of any code but it's an option.
Adverse possession in Kansas is 15 years and similar to most other states. Honestly its difficult to pull this off in any crowded urban area. If this happens to anyone always kindly let your neighbor know that they are over their boundary. If this doesnt work file Quite Title. This is a a judicial declaration that you own the land, and your neighbor or other encroacher does not. But as always know where your property is and be able to prove it. [Reply]

What an ass. Thanks for the feelings of others. Dick.
Is this the one with three trailers? What an odd choice of fence. [Reply]

Yup. And I know he will build it so he can get his car hauler in the back yard.
I may have to plant some trees on the prop line to prevent his trailer from ever seeing the back.
the trailer with the 'broken axle' is suddenly gone.
Just want I wanted. Spend 400k on a house to look at a fucking white vinyl fence from 3/4 of my windows.
Checking city codes to see if it can be prevented
Fences must be at least 5% open for passage of air, light, and drainage. [Reply]

Freely admit I didn't read more than a few posts in the thread, but let me get this straight. Your neighbor allows the weeds to grow along a shared fence that you claim is on your property. If it's on your property, why isn't he bitching about you not maintaining the weeds? the fuck don't you maintain the weeds and quit bitching about your neighbor?
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 could have stopped your post at your first comma. [Reply]

Read the thread. I see a lot of shit about eminent domain and hiring surveyors and lawyers and shit, but not a word about offering to pay for a new fence and getting rid of their yard work headache.

If you actually read the thread you would know that I don't give two shits about the property line. Because the fence has been there since before I moved in 15 years ago, that ship has sailed a long time ago. All I care about is the neighbors doing their part on their side of the fence. [Reply]

Not sure why you quoted my post. I agree with you and understand your position very clearly. My post was aimed at Beef Supremes post basically calling you a lazy neighbor and that this is entirely your fault. [Reply]
