My neighbor and his wife like to give my boys treats and pets, but the fence made it hard. ❤️
He cut a window added hinges and a latch so he could pet the dogs.

That’s cool. I wish I had a fun neighbor. My neighbor rebuilds unmuffled engines 6 feet from my living room window even though I have been asking him to move to literally any other part of his property for 10 years.
Ah yeah that’s rough. He rides a loud motorcycle to work, but I can tolerate it twice a day, especially since it’s at the same time each day.
I’m lucky to have a good one so close.
Have you tried placing a speaker next to the window and playing unmuffled engine noise at him whenever hes out there?
He probably wont enjoy it played back to him non stop, especially if it makes it harder to work on his actual engines.
Any noise ordinances? Not that those will be enforced, but it gives you a leg to stand on.
At least where I am from, there are noise ordinances but they're written in ways like "not hear sound more than X distance away during Y hours". So being so close to it is actually detrimental.
Also where I live you have to report noise violations through the police, which just makes it feel like a massive escalation. "You called the cops on me!?" sort of thing.
There are but unless they are like shooting off big fireworks or teenagers having a party the police won’t care which means I would have to make it a civil thing and frankly we would just rather move as that’s already the plan anyway, or was until the pandemic…
