the great part is she already had the rebar pins put in from a surveyor and her turf line is roughly a straight line between pins (Bermuda vs centipede lol) I can remove a portion of that connector piece and my dogs still wont be able to escape, so if I have to, out will come the saber-saw to fix my part of the problem.... so what then, do I just not cut her 1' strip of grass and let the HOA handle it? (if she wants to be a problem that is) I get the feeling shes just mad that she bought a fence and then we didn't have to.... they put it up for her renters about three months after we moved in probably for liability reasons because we own a doberman, albeit a well tempered one.
found this from harnett county's site.

Where should I put my fence?

Harnett County does not regulate where you put up a fence; however we recommend that you put it one (1) foot from the property line.

If you build a fence on the property line, it becomes shared property between you and your neighbor(s). Also, unless you have recently had your property surveyed, your estimate of the location of the property line may be off by a few inches. Building a fence (1) foot from the property line will help to prevent you from running into issues in the future with these types of situations.

Additionally, if you have any easements on your property, your fence should not be built on them. If it is built on an easement, the person or people deeded use of the easement may remove the fence at their own discretion.


I appreciate the discussion on this btw... was frustrated to the point of anger and this helps.... felt like she was accusing me of plotting to steal her 1'x10' stupid strip of grass
