In the 1930's a family owned business bought three consecutive parcels of land. We will call them lots A, B and C. Lot A was 60' wide. B and C were 30' wide each. The family deeded 2' of lot A to lot B. Lot A is now 58'. B is 32' and lot C remains 30'. The business then deeds each lot to a family member. Each lot then has a building constructed upon it in the 1940's. These are commercial parcels and buildings.

Lot A, 58' has a building constructed 54' wide with 2' on either side between it and the property.

Lot B, 32' has a building constructed on it that is 27' wide and sits on the left side property line of the lot.

Lot C, 30' has a building constructed on it that is 27' wide and sits on the right hand property line of the lot.

This creates an 8' driveway between the buildings B and C. 5' from lot B and 3' from lot C. At the end of the driveway in the back of lots B and C a common garage was constructed at the same time of the original buildings with a dividing wall between each side and each has it's own door.

In the late 1970's the garage on lot C catches fire and is ultimately torn down. However the pad remained and was being used for parking.

In 2000 a person buys property A. In 2005 the purchaser of property A buys property B. Shortly after purchase of B they tear down the building including the garage. They then erect a fence down the property line. Access to the parking pad behind building C is now blocked. They then create a curb cut between the property lines of A & B (with out permit or approval).

Property owner C objected to the fence with the city but did not move forward.

This situation remained as is until yesterday.

Yesterday the owner of property B hires a masonry contractor who tears up the sidewalk in front of B and removes the curb cut between B and C. again with out a permit.

Property owner C contacts the city and objects to the removal of the curb cut. The mayor of the town comes and takes a look and approves the removal of the curb cut for a solid curb.

What say the guru's regarding this situation?
