Neighbors keep parking on my grass

[Anonymous]

My LoCo neighbor laid razor wire last week on his grass to keep kids and pets off his grass. It was an entertaining flurry of activity there with cops involved.

Connect the poles with orange tape and hang a no parking on the grass sign on it.

I just laid new sod in the 1ft section they always drive over. Drives me insane. Most of the time it's not my neighbors- it's their visitors, cleaning people and lawn service that can't seem to stay on the road and keep driving over my grass.

I'm having trouble finding these on Home Depot's site.

I don't see them but they are there. It's with all the NO PARKING and signage

Yep. Do the shorter ones. I see these pretty often in neighborhoods, especially for people who are on the corner lots.

Before spreading caltrops that might injure a child and trigger a lawsuit, put orange cones around the perimeter of your property.

And consider investing in a fence.

My backyard is fenced. To match and fence it in like the back it would be about $20k. Also, my home would look like a fortress.

It doesn't need to match to look nice, OP. But I understand you might not like a fence.

You could add some of the orange temporary fencing like they use near construction.

Thanks, I was trying to find the triangle concrete blocks PP described.

I think that would be even more of an eyesore than the patches of muddy tire tracks.

What about just putting in a reasonably attractive edging that would be hard for cars to drive over?

Something like this (logs are a matter of taste -- but you get the general idea).

The barrier wouldn't have to be more than 6-8" high to keep cars from trying to drive over it.

I like the logs!! I live in LA and people put big rocks and it works.

No, its 100% mine.

Where do you live? Because that is pretty much unheard of.

NP I own to the road too. If you don't have a sidewalk on your side of the street, you probably own it.

Either way, these people are animals for parking in the grass.

Please get a survey...assuming if you have not done that. In Va for example, VDOT owns the right of way from edge of the road to your property line. There are also utility easements and depending on
when your plat was sub divided and/or recorded, it is hard to tell. I know...I know....but best to get a survey.

That the state has a right of way, ot that a utility easement exists, does not mean that the general public is permitted to go on the land whenever they please. Entirely different things.
