How about going for the smallest automatic generator that you can find and
then allowing your neighbor to tap into it during a power failure, right
after he checks your sump pump? That sounds like a win-win situation to me.

As long as the neighbor is connecting to a receptacle, that's fine. If the
connection to the neighbor's house is hard-wired, then you have both Code and
safety issues. So install a GFCI-protected outdoor outlet on the side facing
the neighbor, and all is well.
