[QUOTE=Bill;2259803]I'm still waiting for both of you to answer a couple of questions. The first question, was the front, accessible yard picked up, was answered, so yes, yes it was. The problem focuses on the locked up back yard.
The pic posted mainly showed a piece of felt.....light weight, easy to blow a few feet over, especially if it's coming off a 2nd story roof. /QUOTE] On the picture provided its a tad bit more than a light weight roofing felt. I wonder if this is only the material left or if there was more and not provided by the OP |

The big question is: Was access to the ack yard restricted? If so a simple conversation with the neighbor would probably explain that they did not want to go in the backyard without permission and now that Slew is home he (the neighbor) will inform the roofing contractor that he can now come out and clean up. |

I'm guessing people with bars on the windows probably have security cams, too. Heck, some of my neighbors have security cams, too, and we don't have bars on our windows.
Or maybe some of his fledgling tomatoes had broken stalks, which led him to review the security footage to see how it happened? I don't know. I'm just wondering how he would feel if he knew they had gone in without permission. We were running a forestry mulcher on a PPL ROW next to a house. If you've seen those, it's a messy business. We managed to have most of the chips fall on the ROW, but not all. So I had my guys stop and pick up all the debris from the open front yard, and when they were about done, I knocked on the door to see about accessing the back. I assume at least a little debris might have gone back there, over the fence. Lady is VERY unpleasant. Why are you on my property? While it should have been evident, and there's no way she didn't hear our machine going full blast, I explained it all to her politely, told her we wanted to make sure her property was fully policed up. No, she wants all of us off her property NOW, she'll have her yard man check the back and clean it up, if necessary. OK, so I apologize again and we leave. Never heard anything back, so I guess she didn't make any complaints beyond telling us to GTFO. She stood outside glaring while we worked our way down the ROW, out of sight. Like the lady our crew encountered, Slew seems pretty fervent about private property, not that there's anything wrong with that. A few years ago, AT&T was installing fiber in their easement behind our houses. My newish at the time neighbor was out pitching a fit, because she didn't want to allow the crew to go through her gate to get to the easement. Somebody called the police, and AT&T supervisors showed up, and after a big pow wow that went on for a long time, she eventually let them in. I pulled one of the guys aside and offered him my ladder to simply go over my fence, on the easement, eliminating the problem. By that time, I guess they all came to some kind of agreement and the issue was solved. Strangely enough, when I got fiber connected here sometime later, she apparently let them in her yard no problem, to hook me up....I guess their junction box is in her back yard. Most people just use common sense and understand it's common practice to just let crews enter their property to gain access to their easements, but every once in a while, you get someone that wants to assert their rights, and they need to be respected, just like Slew. We've put in a couple of low water crossings to get across ditches when were weren't allowed property access any other way. It happens. I'm very polite with contractors, because I understand the position that they're in. I'll usually offer them water or Dr Pepper, if I have it on hand. Heck, several of the folks on my block, including me, will occasionally offer drinks to the garbage collectors if we're outside. Just courtesy. |

Same reason they have for decades made it clear that all American kids should go to college (especially white kids) and leave the trades and labor to the brown people. |

I need to call my insurance company.
It appears one of the lawn workers left a 16oz plastic bottle in my yard. I hope I'm covered. |

I hope you'll recover. I hear it can be quite a traumatizing event. We've been having some wind here and the other day when I went to go into town, there was an empty plastic bag blown up against my gate. I threw it in the back of my truck and went on my way. When I got home, it was gone. I figure someone stole it out from the back of my truck. I didn't report it to my insurance because I didn't want a ding on my record. |

I forgot to mention, the bottle in my yard looked like it was stepped on. Who does that? |
