Hello Friends,
My partner and I are first time homeowners and new the rural neighborhood of Appalachia Ohio. We live in the midst of a multi generational family whose land management does not align with ours. One of the largest ways this misalignment comes to the surface is how they manage their trash. Their main waste management is a private landfill that is the hillside behind their house and ours, but on their private property.
Recently they have begun burning their trash once the sun goes down. Help! How do we confront them on this? For one, I am not a confrontational person, secondly I am new to the neighborhood and in my 20’s (they are older than me, thus more intimidating?). In my personal opinion involving the authorities is my last result, but definitely something I would like to avoid.
Last bit of prevalent information in this situation that I would like to emphasize is the multi generational family 75 acre property that our 1.25 acres sits in the middle of. Obviously we don't want to be the squeaky wheel that results in a hostile neighbor dynamic.
