Hey all! Hope you are having a good weekend.

So I have a large expensive problem.  A fire escape. I have to build is encroaching on neighbors land.  Conty approved the structure so I had custom parts made that can't be returned $7,000 !!! What options do I have.  It needs to be where it is?

What Wayne said first. Alternatively, you could offer to pay for an easement for the stair case from the neighbor. I cannot see how you were given a permit to build without a current survey. I spend lots of time locating structures built over the line. Easily preventable.
