Yeah, in the by-laws it states that anyone who owns a lot in the subdivision can cut another lot if the grass is over 6" and charge for reimbursement. This guy owns like 10 more lots and he lets the grass grow to 3' or more sometimes and when he hires someone to cut them they cut all the empty lots and he charges us for them.

I've argued with him before and went ahead and paid, but this is getting ridiculous. He put a lien on my property for $85 before he even notified me.

Seems fishy to me. But the bigger question remains, do you really want a house in a subdivision with these type of restrictions and policies?

Christ, that's retarded. Is this in Baton Rouge? I've never heard of places in New Orleans having these stupid subdivision bylaws like they do in BR.

Who files a lien for $85? It's barely even worth the trip to the courthouse, much less the fees.

Easy enough solution. Go mow one of his lots and send him a bill for $85 and threaten him with a lien if not paid within 5 days.
