What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Florida
I have an easement, which I believe is a maintenance easement, which is shared by me and my neighbor. We live in an unincorporated part of Palm Beach County. The county hired contractors to put in a road across from this easement. They used the easement as a staging area for the machinery, etc. During this period, they also dumped sand and asphalt to be used for the road.
The road is now complete, yet they have left the remaining sand and asphalt in the easement (which happens to be on my side). This was a completely grass covered area, which now has a mound of asphalt sitting on it. I called the county and asked them to remove it, and they said they would "look into it". It's been over two weeks now, and they are not returning my calls.
My understanding is that there cannot be any dumping in the easement. And, I would think this would be considered "dumping". I would just like to know if I am correct in this assumption and, if so, who else can I contact to get this resolved?
Thank you.
