Hello everyone,
the main water supply line for our neighborhood runs right through our garden, even though the municipality does not have an easement for it. I have tried to resolve this issue with the local authorities, but I was not offered any reasonable solution.
Am I allowed to plant a tree over the pipeline or build a garden shed on top of it? Does anyone have any experience with this?

Hmm, 2m (6.5 feet) isn’t really anything for a tree... the roots spread just as wide as the canopy... But for a shallow-rooted tree, the roots wouldn’t go that deep, right?
