Firstoff, your neighbor cannot change the drainage and impact your lot like
that. Talk to him first and let him know that you don't appreciate him
making drainage issues for you and would he please find another solution
that doesn't impact you. If he isn't agreeable, then it's time to involve
codes enforcement and engineers.

I wouldn't mind some runoff, except maybe in the spring, when the road
salt mixes with it (I would prefer his roof runoff ).

A great salt-tolerant bush would be a northern bayberry, although I
think you're in its southern-most section....perhaps a wax myrtle? I
don't know if they have the same salt tolerance.

Better than norway maples.
