[QUOTE="zghorner, post: 3238498, member: 35089"] I live on a 1/2 mile long private road along with 2 others. I am on the last one on the road. We each own the portion of the road that crosses our land and there is a legal right of way to the public so the road cannot be fenced or access restricted in any way (verified this through oklahoma county clerks office). MY neighbor is a butt head. plain and simple the dude is a tiny brain turd bird deluxe. He is the first one on the road and his driveway has been getting washed out by the rain so instead of installing a tin horn...he has filled in the drainage ditches with dirt so the water jumps on the main road and crosses it to the other side all the while washing out the main road. This neighbor and i basically hate each other and i cant talk to him anymore without the serious likelihood of violence taking place. I have been back and forth with the city for months about this and finally got told today that they can do nothing to help since they have no drainage easements or any rights to the road at all. So I am curious if anyone has a clue as to what rights i have to maintain the road even the portion that falls on his land? I have spent a lot of money maintaining this road without his help only to have some idiot ruin it because he doesnt want to install the proper drainage. So up to this point i have done every bit of upkeep including the portions that the other neighbors own but i am wondering if he wanted to make things worse for me, could he get something stating that i cannot work the road that crosses his property so i have to "legally" let the road deteriorate?
