Looking for a little advice here. One of my neighbors along a narrow sandy road decided it was easier to put his new fence in the bladed part of the road than to clear the brush and trees along the old crumbling fence. Trouble is he did the same thing on the other side about 5 years ago and the county commissioner didn't do anything about it. Now he has put his fence in the bladed part of the road on both sides. At one point there is only 17 feet between the wires. Other points it is 20 to 25 feet. So, I filed an official complaint with the County Commissioner, County Attorney and so on. They only promised to talk to him and really don't seem to want to deal with it. My concern is the narrow condition of an already narrow road makes it very difficult to meet a car with my tractor and hay equipment. Besides that, any chance that the county may actually improve it with a tar and gravel surface are slim. Why would they improve such a road--right? This is in Lee County Texas. So, what do you suggest. The neighbor who did this is a local attorney. He claims the road was never deeded to the county and therefore he owns up to the middle. Since he owns property on both sides for about a mile of road, he has made it hard on the rest of the neighbors by narrowing the road. Talking to him is not a good option!! What would you do??
