I had somebody call the City last week because I planted a tree in the right-of-way that comes about 15 feet onto "my" property. Technically it requires a permit but the city never enforces it unless the tree obstructs the sidewalk or drivers ability to see. BUT as soon as they get an official complaint they have to require the permit which would require a full survey and site plan ($1000) so I moved the tree 5 feet to get out of the ROW. I really wish complaints of this nature were not allowed to be anonymous. Not because I would retaliate but I like to know who the asses are in my neighborhood. And don't get me started on HOA's. We have a vacation rental and they are always bitching about something.
