Neighbors behaving badly

[GirlWhoWantsTractor]

My mistake and apologies. The original claimant for the deceptive move has stepped forward to claim credit. I somehow missed that along this long journey. But I was sincere to thank you for the quantify of great advice you provide.

Apology accepted, and thank you for saying my "advice" has been worth something. I have little knowledge, but share it freely!

I don't really get the "hate" for calling the drainage board to ask the question.

Seems to be a lot of that around lately. Try to ignore it. Peace, brother.

Title of thread is because at the time I posted the original I did not know if what the neighbor was doing was in fact legal or not. Hence the call to the drainage board to find out. As bonus information I got the fact that the additional water the neighbor is going to add to the ditch will not affect me in the slightest. I also got bonus information that what I want to do to my own ditch will not affect anyone down stream of me.

That part right there are some good reasons why the authorities should be consulted. Good neighbor or bad neighbor does not matter. Nice it all worked out.

This thread was educational for me. I never knew about the swam and community drainage ditches.

Agreed. Did not know that a big part of Indiana is drained swamp land. Need to go read up on that bit of history. Sounds like it went better than what has happened to the Everglades and the Kissimmee river.

Thankfully we do not have those problems!

We did have a gator nearby this summer! :laughing:
