I would never have called the health department without making multiple calls to whoever owned the land. I would never call the health department because someone didn't mow their lawn. I'm very sorry about what happened to you, because imho, it was not right.

We try very hard to respect the rights of our neighbors, and we hope that they do the same. It's not easy, but we believe in individual freedom.

Well, yes I agree with you and wish it had happened differently. However, I don’t hold it against the man, he was trying to sell his house.

A call to city hall to find out the owner and look up the phone number would have been possible, but I just said sorry, and he took my number and promised to call me first next time.

He never sold the house - bad market, but he has been quite friendly and helpful with watching the place since then. Alls well that ends well.
