How does someone officially establish property lines for things such as putting up fences, shrubs, etc. in Yukon? I had a survey done at time of buying, but the survey states it is not to be used to establish property lines, or used to mark the layout of a fence and things of that nature. My neighbors are cutting 3 feet into my yard, i believe they think it's theirs, to the point of damaging existing shrubs. Even though there is a privacy fence for the backyard that shows a division, from the front, they pass it by 3 feet, noone is that off. The survey shows the fence is more on my property. Normally wouldn't be such a big deal if their lawnmower wasn't set at the lowest setting, and they took care of their weed problems. Their weed problem transfers to mine by wind and also lawnmower by way of side discharge. I would like to have my yard professionally treated, but need to know where it begins and where it ends.
Where I came from, the city would come out and spray a line on your yard where the property line is. I get a puzzled response or look when I ask about this in Yukon. I have used a metal detector to find the rods that mark the corners of the property, and I believe they are there, short of digging to be sure. My question is, how does one establish boundary lines in Yukon, or Canadian County? I'd rather do things the right way, than take it upon myself to erect a fence or plant shrubs where I please and let everyone else find the way.
