WTF is my neighbor doing...???

One
Two

Last year he cleared a shitload of trees. Nothing weird about that, the yard looked nice. This year, though... wtf is all this shit?

Interestingly, to the right of that pile of dirt is a creek (and a large gully). It's all protected wetlands stuff, which makes me wonder if he even has a permit for all of this. Not that I give a shit about the rare slugs or whatevers down there, but it'd give me an excuse to get him to stop building... whatever it is.

Building a wall. He's tired of you peering over into his property.

Actually, I took this pic from way down at the end of my back yard. I'm up on a hill, as you can tell from the pics. And right behind me where those pics were taken is my giant 2-story shed/garage/workshop. I can't even see his land from my house. lol

And, unfortunately for him, he'd need a LOT more dirt to be able to build a wall to block me. If you can't tell from the pics, ground level on my property is higher than his roof. 😛

Mostly I'm just wondering WTF this guy is doing, though. Also, oddly enough, I'm pretty sure the dirt pile is sitting on his neighbors land too. And the OTHER neighbor, to the left of the pic, has been full of people lately... I don't know wtf is going on, because it used to be just an old retired guy who lived there. Now, though, their backyard is starting to look like a gypsy camp in the evenings.
 
Call the local zoning official and they will tell you exactly what he's doing. If it's legal, this information is public record.
 
The more important question is, where is the dirt coming from? Maybe he's tunneling from his basement. You'll wake up one night to the sound of a pick ax clinking against your basement walls.

lol, you don't bring in dirt to build a pool, you take dirt away.

Well, if the pool needs to be dug, the dirt doesn't just get carried away in the wind as you dig the hole.

OP: seriously, call the zoning official. If he's up to something sketchy and wants to fill in wetlands or something, you aught to let the town/city know.

It starts here... as you get older and grow gray hairs, this kind of curiousity is a daily routine and you complain about every little thing people do. 😀
