I live next to a housing development built in the early 60's, 10 properties on north side. One of these neighbors planted a blue spruce 27+ years ago (I purchased property 26 years ago next week). Neghbors planted it 2' on my side of property line. I had survey done when I purchased and knew where property line was. I blocked my view of their driveway and streetlight, Yesterday neighbor had the tree cut down without checking with me. they said they did not know where property line was but since they planted it..... claims it was dead (it was not) I can see this tree from my bedroom window (about 60' away). question is what would you do? Does her homeowner insurance fall into this? Do I contact my homeowners insurance? I did google search and found Iowa code section 658.4 willfully injuring any timber, tree, shrub on the land of another... the perpetrator shall pay treble damages at the suit of any person entitled to protect or enjoy the property. how do you value a 35' tree? I've been very helpful to this neighbor when they need help but are rather standoffish (snobbish) when they don't need something. Tractor related I had to use my JD 630 with 45 loader to push the pile of branches they stacked in my yard back into her yard. I documented what I could with camera, I don't know what I should do.
