well, placing anything on MY property is trespassing unless I give authority to place the items on my property.
and, governmental immunity only extends so far. This is apparently an intentional act that, at best, would be construed as willful negligence causing damage to private property. I do not believe governmental immunity would protect. If there is salt used in the area, it will not only kill the grass but it will poison the soil for some time to come. The only thing you would be able to grow is asparagus.
It happens every year in many places all over snow country. In my immediate area, the snow is taken out of the city and dumped on county property. I remember reading about a spot in New York that requested special permission from the EPA to be allowed to dump the snow in the river, and yes, before you ask, EPA or DNR permission is required to dump snow cleared from roads in the river in many areas. There can be a great deal of salt in the snow that can be harmful to marine life.What do you propose cities throughout the snowy areas of this country should do with the snow in lieu of plowing it, such that this type of issue never arises?
. this is not merely the snowplow running down the road blasting slush all over everything. It is obvious this lot is being used for a disposal area for the accumulated snow from the area depriving the OP from the use of his lot.puts 90% of the neighborhood snow onto our property, damages our lawn and curb, and creates a pile of snow that is 8+ feet tall and when it melts floods our basement
and of course you aren't going to find an ordinance preventing such action. Since when does a municipality make laws preventing them from taking an action?
