Your Street Or Mine?
How about some bookmark love? ::
If you don't like arguing with your neighbor whose tree is creeping onto your yard, or blocking your view, try working with 6 neighbors to maintain the street on which you all live.
This is exactly what the residents many small pocket neighborhoods in Laguna Beach are facing. This is a situation where they not only own their own land, and homes, but a portion of the street that they use for direct access to their home. Think: extended, shared large driveway.
The problem is that these streets are most often originally asphalt, or black top. When they deteriorate, it is up to the residents to come together and pitch in to restore the street and fix the potholes.
As you can imagine, not all neighbors are on the same page. Some can't afford to pay for road maintenance.
