Sometimes when someone is the new neighbor on the block, they should attempt to completely appraise themselves of a bothersome situation, attempt to confront the situation in a calm and helpful manner to achieve resolution. If this fails and they have also not been able to enlist neighbor support, then take the steps for PORA and Health Department support.
Now, I am not there, have not met you and am personally unaware of your specific situation, but I feel by reading your post, you are not only disturbed over this situation, but have also not spoken directly to your "problem" neighbor, other then attempting to glean support for your problem from other possibly supportive people living in the area. Maybe the "offending" neighbor needs a helpful solution from you and other neighbors, rather then escalating the situation and creating possible hard feelings.
Maybe the property has just gotten beyond them. Sometimes we go into a situation and then it changes, for whatever reason. We find ourselves sinking and need help, but just will not ask for it. A helping hand and friendly neighbors just might help cleanup all the problems.
What would happen if the people involved and concerned just went over, picked up the fruit and threw it away?
