Errin I am betting that you don"t own livestock. You might not even own land either. Here is the deal. I bet that you do have doors on your house???? Who gets the benefits? You get to heat your house and you get to keep people out. Right?? Well a line fence does keep out any livestock from your property, not just the neighbors. It also marks the boundary to show ownership.
You should look up the law in Ohio. My wife is from there and we own some of her family"s land there. In Ohio you WILL maintain a line fence. That fence can only be barb wire if both parties agree in writing. You will be liable for half of the cost of said fence. If you refuse the township trustees will contract to have it built. Plus they can enforce a clearance of twenty feet from the fence. I have seen them have an old fence bulldozed out and a forty foot path cleared for the new fence. Then half of the bill is added to your property tax bill. If you don"t pay it then your land can be sold at sheriff"s sale.
A pretty rich family bought two farms just by my MIL. The bordering farmer started out just asking for a few hundred dollars for fence supplies and that he would use them to repair the entire line fence. The rich dude refused in a very arrogant manner in a very public place. So the farmer went to the trustees. Long story short. The cost to replace the entire line fence on the two farms was over $75,000. Seems that the other landowners decided they needed good line fences with arrogant neighbors.
