Grrrr…Can’t stand people like my neighbors that want to plant so much crap on such a small lot.

FLU didn’t mean to make fun of your situation. My story was such a complete disaster that the best thing I can do is make fun of it. I am not talking about some goofball building on the property line. Things are infinitely better now, even with that.

You make a good point about the roots and although I don’t need to tell you,when you bought into an HOA you paid for the right to express concerns. I have heard that copper nails in the trunk or copper shavings spread about the drip line of the tree will do the trick.
Good luck
Going to get a life now. Adios

Yep, take pictures, and mail it to the hoa. That’s why you pay the monthly dues.

The city tree also can’t be removed. It’s called a “tree lined street”, and the developer had to use an exact tree for that front tree. All landscaping changes have to go through the hoa. He didn’t because the hoa would have told him about the tree lined street provision by the city.

Rustico,

No problem. I know you were just kidding around. Looks at least I convinced the neighbor to plant the magnolia on the other side, if at all. They are seeing if they can return the magnolia to the landscaper. If not, it's going to the my neighbor's left neighbor problem. Also, the neighbor agreed to planting the smaller palm on my side so that it wouldn't block the my front.

Yup, he took out a city tree. I know that. And I know he didn't go through HOA. But, seems like they are willing to compromise, so unless he does something ridiculous, I'll file the extra pictures in my circular files in case I need it for the future.
