Quoted:
I had a problem with my neighbor earlier this year. I am pretty sure that he damaged the tire of my Cadillac. So here's what I did. I knew a guy who was a member of a serious one percent motorcycle club. I told the guy that I was having a problem with my neighbor and I asked him if he and his brothers would like to come to my house for some steak and beer. I asked the biker to just stare at my neighbor in a hostile way. So a dozen tough bikers wearing their colors showed up at my house. They made a point of revving their Harleys as they parked their bikes in front of my house. My neighbor was outside on his porch when the bikers showed up and I made a big show of greeting each man as he got off his bike. I had lots of steak and lots of beer and a good time was had by all. My neighbor has not bothered me since then. we could make this happen. Why do I picture a bunch of guys getting off of three wheeled bicycles wheezing for breath after being dropped off at the end of the street wearing Son of Anarchy t-shirts showing up at your driveway asking to use the bathroom. No, these guys are serious. I won't mention the name of the club. But everyone here would know them. |

Their dogs could very well be barking all day long when the owners are gone. Seen and heard that more than a few times. Put a camera inside the house first and see what's going on.
Maybe the crotchety old fuck has a possible point or two... |

Tell him to call in a favor to a little girl. Preferably dressed as a girl scout with her parents. Have them go around the neighborhood selling cookies or some shit. Maybe even just make up some stupid petition thing that an old person can't resist.
Have them print their name and sign it. With any luck, you'll be able to quickly match handwriting this way. ?? Profit. I think that actually looks like a man's writing. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: My take on this is in the very small minority of GD opinions. My landlord and landlady live upstairs. They are professional musicians and often play inside the house. The tuba rocks! It feels like the walls are moving like speaker cones. In the summer their son, daughter, and a friend live here while on break from school. They set up in the garage with amplified drum machine, bass, lead guitar and mics for vocals. The garage door is open during their sessions. The closest house is 200 ft or so away. The music can be plainly heard far further than that. No one has ever complained, so it's a cool neighborhood. It helps that the music is really good danceable stuff. Some neighbors come out and enjoy it. That said, the ordinance in your BIL's area is rather strict and open to some interpretation. Being young, I don't think he realizes just how much noise he's making and probably hasn't trained the dog. Now, the person who wrote the note might be a dick, we don't know. But the onus is on your BIL to follow regs, particularly since a cop showed at his door. Neighbor is in control at this point and the only threat I saw in the note was her calling the police until things get straightened out one way or another. |

Cameras a , trespass complaint followed by an arrest , Maybe even a restraining order This, but don't do it until you get cameras and catch them in the act of trespass... with the evidence, you can get a restraining order and arrest all in one. If you call the cops it may stop them from going it again... remember you want to catch them in the act without any warnings. Then bam |

Find out what the noise ordnance is. If it defines the hours loud noises can be tolerated out doors, put a boombox on a timer. Everyday, "Kill 'em All" on repeat.
The rest of the juvenile shit I'd do has probably been posted. Oh, and get frags. |

He needs to find out what the actual noise ordinances are for the area. And cameras. Ive called the cops on barking dogs before after letting the owners know. I understand 5 or 10 minutes of barking, but hour after hour is unacceptable if your neighbors are in close proximity. I would want to know how much the dogs are actually barking and how loud. My new neighbors have dogs. They take them in if they start barking for more than a few minutes. |

I've been in this exact situation before with notes and everything...
This is an issue of harassment. Our local noise ordinance has specific writing to prevent this exact thing from happening. The cops will only come on the first noise complaint. For them to come again, the neighbors need to band together and fill out a multi page formal complaint to the city. Definitely keep that letter, along with the others that are sure to follow. Remember he needs to keep calm, and tell the cops who arrive that he is being harassed, and if possible he should get letters from the neighbors stating that there is a long history of harassment from an anonymous(or not) neighbor. As well make sure it is stated that these complaints are being made during non-quiet hours which seems from your PDF 9pm to 9am week nights and midnight-9am on weekends Next step, go directly to the police chief(or equivalent) and explain the situation(bring the letter) and ask for advice on how to stop both the harassment and the wasting of his officers time and city resources. If that doesn't yield any results, then start showing up to the city council meetings requesting a change to the city's noise ordinance that will eliminate personal harassment from the system. She has the confidence that her behavior is ok... Provided your BIL wants to be a good neighbor (to normal people) and can remain calm, he can get the system to work for him, especially when the other party is wasting city resources on personal issues. Must early 20's guys are afraid to play the game, but if he doesn't, this will get much worse fast! |

I'd spend a sizable amount of time f'ing with her. he should buy some of those random noise generators at thinkgeek.com and sprinkle those things all around her house. she'll kill herself. I also think some thrift store tape recorders with recordings of dogs barking or coyotes howling dropped by her house at 2a.m. a few times would be entertaining. |

Every neighborhood has one to a varying degree.
 There's a guy across the road that yells at the kids for riding their bikes past his house. I've never talked to his wife and only chatted a minute with him once. That was enough for me to tell.
