Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Iowa

in 2009, my oldest brother and i became co-trustees of a trust that contained a lake house property. that same year my older brother gave permission to the neighbor on the east to fill in with dirt between our and his property up to the very egde of our foundation. my brother did this without consulting with me. when i found out i told him this was not acceptable as this portion of our property flooded in 1993 and now with the additional fill any flood water would extensively flood our garage (as did the 1993 flood) plus, push flood water further up on our property on the west side probably making the property inaccessible. can this be brought now in a hearing to have my older brother removed as trustee. this flooding concern is not the only issue involved in asking for his removal. or, is there a statute of limitations. if there is can the above info still be presented in a hearing and the judge just not admit it. thanks, j
