Werner, It's called "encroachment". When property comes up for sale, a survey is taken, delineating property lines according to the lot number on the city map! No ifs, ands, buts, or maybes. I have no idea where city residents got the idea that they can "encroach" on ANY property lines, not THEIRS! They can be sued and fined if they don't remove fenches, shrubs, stones or any device, aimed at the "taking for one's own use", the property of others. I scared the "hell" out of my next door neighbor when my home went up for sale. He "allowed" some shrubs to "encroach" on my property. He had to get a landscaper to "move" them or be fined by Neptune Township and me for every day his "shrubs" were there, in other words, he had to pay me "rent"! There's a stature or law on the books about it. Ask any real estate person about it. No, go out of Asbury Park and ask a Neptune Realtor about it. There is a disclaimer ,that if you don't cite the encroachment, after 10 years the land, even if it's a sliver, becomes yours! That's the caveat! So where is the code enforcer or whoever is in charge
