Robert Frost's wisdom "Good fences make good neighbors" has endured for more than 100 years.In Missouri, that depends on where you live.
Joe Koenen, University of Missouri Extension ag business specialist, will explain state statutes governing fences during an upcoming workshop that will run from 6:30 to 9 p.m. Feb. 27, 2014.
The workshop will be available via an internet connection in Butler at the MU Extension Office.
"Missouri continues to have a very complicated fence law, due in large part to two separate laws covering the state, depending on the county that your land is in," Mr. Koenen said. "Another problem is that both laws are subject to interpretation," he said.
Mr. Koenen will provide an overview of both laws, as well as the landowners rights and responsibilities.
The program will originate in Northeast Missouri, where Joe Koenen is located and will be broadcast to other locations like the Bates County Extension Office in Butler via an interactive internet connection. Participants at all locations will be able to ask questions and interact with one another.
The cost is $10 per person, which includes materials. Space in Butler is limited and individuals should preregister by contacting MU Extension in Butler, MO, at (660) 679-4167 or by e-mail at jennermw@missouri.edu.
