Filling in the inlet pipe probably won't sit too well with the county.....

If you make it hold water and it's on the other peoples property, then they will benefit from your work, and they could add/remove fish that are on their "property".

That's the bad part about having a pond that is not completely on your property.

I don't know what other options you have.

We have a client that owns a house in a small sub-division. It's somewhat something like yours, it has a small creek that during high rain events, drains into the pond, and the pond overflows into another creek. There are 4 houses on the pond, and one large vacant lot. This client put in an aeration system, Texas Hunter feeder, and haas us stock/manage the pond. He's the only one of all the houses that has anything to do with the pond, and he's comfortable footing the whole bill. We believe another house on the pond is annually stocking goldfish in the pond, but nobody will own up to it.
