Let him build it then draw a huge mural of a naked girl on your side and maybe a little guy pissing on his lawn.

you pull doughnuts in his yard with your NSX and knock it down.

I know all to well about ornery neighbors. One of my neighbors cut down 5 rhododendron bushes in my yard, valued at $45,000 total. The other used to let his 3 dogs bark constantly at all hours of the day and night, blatantly disregarding noise laws. Multiple neighbors of his have complained to the police and the town.. but they still bark. He also planted some stupid bushes on my yard and refuses to stop mowing the grass 3ft into my lawn.. I wouldn't care but he only does it like once every 3 weeks so he cuts it waaay too short so that 3ft is always yellow.. needless to say, I don't think too highly of my stupid neighbors

Or do the wood picket fence on your side. My neighbor said he was installing a swimming pool, when he really was building a 2-story house blocking our view of the Verdugo Mountains. (He tore down his old house.) I planted tall trees to block our view of it. (BTW, he's a total asshole.)

Is there a law limiting how close to your property the fence can be? Like three feet or so? If he puts the fence right on your property line, you can make him dig it up. Also, you could go to the holes at night and fill them in with 6" of dirt and rocks so the fence won't be so secure.

You're fully in your right to put up a stepladder and look into his back yard too

If you really don't want the fence, take your covenant and take him to court. Someone has to enforce the rules, and if it makes you unhappy enough, it should be you.

Humor me dude, I'm from the People's Republik Of Kalifornia here, you guys don't have fences around your properties ? I have walls around mine. Six and a half foot tall, I wanted 9' but was shot down . Plus you need to get past a gate to get on the island first . I met my neighbors once other than maybe a nod as your waiting for the gate to open. I prefer it that way. When we bought the house I told them leave us alone and we will leave you alone. This was before I had kids, just the wife and I. I also said I don't call 911 when troubles a brewing. My aunt God bless her is a judge and has saved my a$$ many times. Now that I'm a dad the boys know to stay on our property and respect the neighbors property by not setting foot on theirs.

I guess it helps that I'm the block gun nut/ hunter. Everybody is real polite to my face

If this fvcktard builds his fence and it's on your part of the property line knock the damn thing down
