Not just that the fence is 2' over the property line, but that there is a 15' easement centered on the property line. That means the fence needs to be moved 9 1/2 feet and the bushes planted in the easement need to be removed.
Don't go soft on the settlement, even if the do relocate the fence.

That utility pole and the wires holding it in place should have been her first clue that that area is not her property. I've never seen a city easement less than six feet in width either. She should have know that her property is not right on top of that utility pole line. Just look at the bushes planted in her back yard. Those were planted on the edge of her property. From those bushes to the utility pole "invisible line" is not her property, that's easement, and she knows it.
These are absolutely malicious compliance type of people. Don't let them on your property to remove it. Damage will "accidentally" occur. Wait until the court inevitably rules in your favor. Then request a court order that states you will hire a contractor to remove the fence, and they will pay the bill. Get two quotes so the Judge sees you aren't trying to rip them off. Return the fence to them as good will, with a stern warning and fair notice that if it is put back in even a millimeter on your properly, it will be removed and scrapped to cover the second removal cost.

"Your neighbor's property.... It's not yours." Followed by explaining the easement: 'Their' property but they can't build on it. Betcha the 'friend inna Lexus' was their attorney. If so, appears he had a come-to-Jesus conversation with them. How much time, money & grief would have been saved (by YOU) had they simply listened in the first place. Can't change that, just ruminating on it. I hope if they do move the fence, you're able to pursue relief for your legal expenses & other direct costs (McK's car damage & ?) plus SOMETHING for pain & suffering.

Clearly contractor #2. He showed her the property line, explained how an easement works, and even showed her how far she'd have to move that fence. Good job! At least I think so. Audio was hard to make out sometimes. That said, I never understood people that try to steal something, then attempt to justify it when they're caught... and get mad at their would-be victim when they aren't allowed to keep what they tried to steal. Like it's their victim's fault. smh PS I also don't understand why it's taking so long to get that fence off your property. Surveys were done. Property line is even or record. The easement is surely on record. Should take five minutes to review and then order the fence removed... but yet it continues. Great drama though! Wishing you the best!
I used to be a fence contractor. In the city/county I worked in, you could put a fence on the property line in an easement. If they had to come and work in that easement, they would remove the fence and replacement is on you.
Joanne simply does not want to hear the truth, no matter how many times it is told to her. In other words, "my mind is made up, don't confuse me with facts!" is her attitude.
I've had a few people do this to me over the years. Set up a meeting and proceed to pick my brain for ideas and even when I tell them it won't work or isn't legal they continue on and on. I think she's just trying to find someone to talk to lol
There's no fool like an old fool.
