I had a "Great Grass War" in a small town we own a house in. We had a neighbor girl mow the lawn for us. She made the mistake of mowing a strip about 10' wide outside of the fence. She did this TWICE. The fence is 1' inside our property line. The city owns the lot next door. We told the girl to only mow one swath on the outside of the fence, since the rest was city property. Lo-and-behold the city lets it get about 2 1/2' tall and sends me a nasty-gram to get it mowed - or else. They finally mowed it and sent me the bill - $300!
Went round-and-round over a piece of grass 8' x 100'. FINALLY, after showing them the corner stake 3 times and the city lawyer sending me another bill (for his services) for $210 - They realized they were wrong, but still wanted paid. Told them were to go with it and called the State Attorney General. Bills magically disappeared and had a hand delivered letter of appology signed by the Village People (council) AND the city crew (all 3 of them), and the city attorney.
