Re: Property Line
Setback requirements are usually a matter of deed restrictions or local ordinance. If there is an encroachment onto your property, this is a separate issue. Part of the answer will depend on how long this state of affairs has existed, and whether you or your predecessor in interest had notice of the encroachment.
