The tree item

OK, this is the "trees" item. It refers mostly to the larger aspects of house
problems (root invasion) instead of the big leafy growning things directly.

So what is the rule on trees that grow exactly on the property line? What
if you want to cut one down and have a difficult neighbor? What if it grows
out of the property line and leans over your property? What if it grows on
the other side and leans over your property? How about if you just want to
trim it heavily?

I would think any trimming on your side would be legal and ok, even if the
tree were completely on your neighbor's side, but grew into (or over) your
property. If it is growing on the line and you have a hostile neighbor, it
is tough going regardless of the legalities. If you cut it down, ensure that
it falls on your property.
I took a quick scan in a search engine but did not see anything covering these
questions.

You can trim anything on your side of the property line, as may the city
for keeping sidewalks passable, etc.
Any advice on removing 50' plus Walnut trees on a fenceline? I don't
want to but the Washtenaw County Road Commision says I MUST to get a
driveway permit! Grrrrr!!!

You bet! If I have to take them down I'll have the wood sawn into rough
lumber and make good use of it.
