My neighbor put on an enormous Christmas light show last year. He sold tickets and had people come onto his property (drive or walk). He put on 3 shows a night, 5-6 days a week, for about 5 weeks.
He did not have a permit form the county, but due to the slowness of the government, he was able to complete all shows. And b/c of the massive amount of money he raked in, the fines were likely just the cost of doing business.
It affects me greatly b/c the show faces my house (and is practically seizure inducing) and since he is landlocked, he has an easement onto my property. Thus we had a hundred additional cars a day driving onto our property, using the single lane road.
Since he didn’t have a permit, I presume he also didn’t have any special kind of insurance in case of an incident or injury by a ticket holder. (I think he had language on the ticker that he is not liable blah blah blah.). I have 2 questions.
1) How can I protect myself financially if there is an accident on my property, either by car and/or pedestrian?
2) If I can find out who his homeowner’s insurance is, can I inform them and they will cancel him? (He does have a website with show info and event address).
