It's a real pain when you buy a home with the expectation that what you see is what you will always have. However,your neighbour has the same rights that you have. Congrats on working towards an equitable solution!

When I moved into my place, I found that I had no privacy at all in the yard. Not that I want to do anything questionable out there, but I would like to be able to treat it as a private, open-air part of my home. So I planted cedar trees all around the perimeter and right up between the houses. I will try to keep it to the bylaw mandated 8 ft. Don't really care what the neighbours think. At least it's green!

I guess I'm like your neighbour....

That's why I like living in a place like Nevada, where I can own acres and acres and acres of land, having only the mountain range as my neighbor.

You've got it. A 30 ft square yard allows no privacy at all. Hence, fences.

Bad news, she doesn't want to negotiate...and even called the police.
We are going to survey the property line and try to work with local government. We are not optimistic
