Comment on How much salt water to kill a tree?
xmunk@sh.itjust.works 2 months agoSome of the roots survived and now it’s back to a full ass tree and the current slumlord of a property owner refuses to pay anything towards maintainence even as it rips up patios and shits sticky sap everywhere. I want everything on my side of the line dead because nobody else gives a shit.
If the owner is truly neglectful you can talk to the city and potentially get the tree removed funded by a lein on their property. If your neighbor is uncooperative there are usually official channels to resolve this through.
If you go the vigilante route you might end up with a serious fine (also, it’s a dick move)

I don’t think the city can do anything about a condo on private property on unincorporated land. It’d have to be the HOA or county, and I don’t know how I’d even approach the county about it. The HOA is run by 90yo homebodies who don’t care about anything they don’t have to look at. We’ve made multiple complaints about their fences falling down and pulling our fences with them. No response. We bring up the concrete and we’re told it’s a landscaping problem, who ofc point us right back at the hoa.
