The grinder pump belongs to the town, not the homeowner? If so, the easement would give the town the right to maintain your grinder pump as well as the connection from the pump to the sewer main. Check the wording of the easement: it may give the town the right to access all parts of the sewer system, including his pump. Or are you saying his pump is not within the area described by the easement?

There are often set backs from properly lines for fences, so check your city zoning, it is different from set backs from the street.

And of course in most areas you need building permit for the fence.

The easement signed by me, only allows the town of hull to come onto my property to fix only my grinder pump. The water commissioner did not know why it is on our property. He said it was a "site decision" but nonetheless wrong. We do not need a permit in hull to erect a fence

Apparently you and the town disagree about the need for a permit.

Either

• they are reading the easement differently than you are;
• there is another easement of which you are unaware; or
• there is a zoning ordinance-permit requirement that they aren't telling you about.

The town water commissioner agrees with us that is should not be where it is. The abutters pipe comes out the back of his house to his back yard. The water commissioner does not know why it was put where it is.. Seems to be a mystery to all... I think our abutter wanted it where it is. Does not interfere with his yard at all. He is that connyving and sneaky. A real dumb animal.

We installed a fence last week. We went in 4 inches from property line. Now our neighbor has started a rock wall right next to our fence, some are falling onto our property. Is there something we can do to stop all this nonsense, maybe a stop order or something and also where would we go to do this. Do we lose our 4 inches because we put the fen ce there or do we always maintain our property line... thanks so much for help

The side of the fence nearest your neighbor's property is 4" from the line? And the neigbor is encroaching on your property that 4"? I assume you have had the line surveyed so that you know for certain exactly where the line is.

Send the neighbor a letter courteously but firmly informing him that he is trespassing on your property and demanding that he cease and desist. If he ignores it, you will have to take him to court.

I've merged all your threads as they relate to the same issue. I thought we had settled this already. Please don't start a new thread with the same issue.

Oh, good, Scott - I thought it was me.
