if it is on your property, you can feel free to whatever you want with that fence.

It depends on the state law.  In most jurisdictions if two or more people jointly have easement rights, it would require permission from all those who have an interest in order to alter the property in a way that would limit access.  The person who actually owns the land which the easement lies can generally alter it like pave it or something like that so long as they are not disturbing the easement owners access to the right of way.  But - that is just a textbook talking - I would suggest doing a quick yahoo search typing in your state and "property law and easements".  You should be able to find a statute or a website that talks about it - but like I said - every state may be different.

As far as I know, you can ONLY cut the BRANCHES that are on your side of the property line. Otherwise, it is trespassing and assault on anothers propery. I think that a lot of this would depend on WHY you want to cut down the tree... safety, electricty, view, etc? Generally, you CANNOT affect a neighbors yard without his express permission.

Put up a fence...\n\nThe old saying "Good fences make good neighbors"\n\nThey're not really "invading your privacy since you're not doing anything to get privacy.

LOL.. Uhmm, I've seen some interesting questions.  As for this one I don't think it is uncool to take a DOO DOO outside.  Just be sure it's not in the neighbor's yard.  That would be embaressing to answer to that... lol

If you want to be able to repair it, paint it, etc. without your neighbor's consent you need to have it inside your property line so you can still work on it and be on your own property.

Is the drainage pipe going to drain onto your property?  Is there going to be a clause regarding maintenance?  Find out the specifics for his plan and then take them to a real estate lawyer to get their take.  There's no reason not to help out a neighbor if everything is on the level and they aren't trying to take advantage of you.

Yes. Restrictive Covenants are set in the property deeds when it is first built and stay in the deeds no matter who the owner is.

You have to right to cut any part that encroaches on your property.  First, BE SURE EXACTLY WHERE THE PROPERTY LINE IS!  Second, if the fence is actually on your side, start cutting.  Hopefully, the cutting will kill the weed, and you are OK.  Should the weed start to break the fence, get an estimate to repair, and off you go to small claims court.  Remember, you are responsible to mitigate your damages.  That means, if it appears that the weed will cause some damage now, get the estimate now, don't wait until the fence falls down before going to court, or you will not get the full amount, since you did not take efforts to mitigate your damages.

I know that the City of Plano has been known to peek over an 8 foot fence and make stink over bags filled with leaves.  [Plano is one big HOA].\nAnd since recent legislation in Texas gives HOA's greater power than before (they can foreclose on homes now-faster than banks), I would not join a community where HOA was mandatory.\nI would suggest you check with the HOA rules that you should have been given as matter of documentation at the close.  You may want to talk to your city to see if the HOA's have to conform to some city policies on privacy issues.

If someone enters your property and is injured by a hazardous condition you are probably liable.  Posting a "no trespassing" sign should shift at least some of the blame to the trespasser, especially if local laws permit prosecution.  Only a licensed lawyer in your state could advise you on the full implications of the law.  For example an "attractive nuisance" perhaps a swimming pool without an adequate fence, puts the owner at danger of liability because small children (who would have been excluded by a fence) may enter and drown.  Even posting the property may not be enough.

over the fence into your neighbour's yard

A "No Trespassing" sign will certainly help. It would remind people that your driveway is private property. Now your neighbors will have more visitors.;-)

because only a thin wall is meant to keep you "apart" from your neighbor?

This is referring to the rights of property owners concerning property adjacent to (abutting) theirs.  There are certain things that a person can do to infringe on the rights of his neighbors, i.e. loud parties, overhanging trees, dangerous contaminants that could seep over to adjoining properties, etc.

notify the neighbor, show him the survey, move the fence at your expense
