I mentioned before that we are having all our property lines mapped out, something that has not been done on the land in many years. It's complicated by the fact that the only two markers remaining are all the way on either end of block so the surveyor essentially has to map all the plots to get to ours which is in the middle.
I took it upon myself to go visit the neighbors in back of our property. It's become evident now that they are far onto our land near the creek with their vegetable gardens, sheds and other unsightly things. Both neighbors are well into retirement and maintaining the plots is becoming a challenge. We hope to have the lines sorted out this week but then the inevitable question of what to do about their encroaching comes up.
We'll probably work out some sort of arrangement to allow them to do their gardens on the land but clean up the area and take on liability risk. Does anyone out there have a sort of lease agreement that would allow for this type of arrangement? I'd love to see that. We don't want to stress these folks out given their age but we do want to make it clear it is our land and it has to be respected while trying to be accomodating. It's on the other side of the creek so not all the easily accessible for us anyway.
