You should return it to her in person. Tell her “You know you don’t really need that right?” Then wink at her. Leave it at that.

Sounds like a real nice guy. Check the city zoning section for set-back from property lines. There might be something there to work with if you want/need to take it further and get court order to have it removed at his cost and make a best friend for life.

There are plastic instant hedge expanding panels.
Also natural kits but which might not grow. https://mobilane.com/products/mobilane-green-screen/

Again the fencing zoning restrictions might work against you. Apply for a variance based on that photo. You lose view. They lose view.

Other than that, May I suggest a cinderblock baby poo mustard yellow wall?

Thanks but my neighbor is a policeman so I don't really want to antagonize him but... I always fall on my feet.

In other words "he'll keep".

Just got a Sunday delivery of 3 items, one of which I needed for one of my motorcycle projects I wanted to work on today. Normally I avoid weekend deliveries but it's nice to have that option.

I always provide feedback for the driver. They always do a great job so I check all 5 boxes. No different than the concept of leaving a generous tip.

For these 3 items it was a total of 15 clicks. I wish they would have a click option for "all 5". Then it would have only been 3 clicks today.

Minor nit......just the solution-oriented side of me showing itself.....

I must report in. Left package like I described. Gone the next morning. I didn't think about the photo drivers took as they left packages. Hopefully she never looked.

I would have hand-delivered the package and shuffled walked to and from the house like my butthole hurt.

You could say "You should just return this."
