Neighbor plants on your property
My neighbor, whom I never met, planted a tree partially on my property and disconnected his water nozzle (from his irrigation system) and connected my irrigation system to that nozzle that is watering his tree.
He is now selling his house and is not living there. What would you do? Is there a local (the Villages) agency or community complaint center that would handle this? Thank you. Westy |

I would disconnect your sprinkler system from your neighbor's nozzle. No permission needed to do that. For the tree, I would send a letter asking him to remove the tree from your property. And, if there is a real estate agent, I would also send them a letter. You also need to verify that the neighbor doesn't have an easement in your deed restriction document that allows them to plant things on your property.

Never seen an easement that allows someone else to plant on your property. Where did you see this retiredguy123?

Courtyard villas have a side yard easement that allows your next door neighbor to landscape and maintain a strip of land that you own along the side of your house.

I would call community standards 352-751-3912 and ask them the question. The notification to the realtor sounds like an excellent idea so future buyers are aware there may be a problem. Good luck.

Small drill and some copper sulfate will do the trick

I seem to recall some similar weird thing with patio villas, as well. Community Standards should be able to answer your questions. OP, did you not question him when he planted the tree?

Post a sign allowing dogs to poop and pee on said tree.

Would that make the tree grow faster?

What did the neighbor say when you asked them about it?

Nice quick chop job one night will remove the problem since it is on your property.

I'm guessing this is a fake news thread.
