    Development property utility easement question?

    I have a quick question about developers requesting/demanding utility easement access I was hoping someone might have an answer for me?

    Please PM because I'm not looking to "out" anyone...

    The easement should be displayed in your survey.

      Yes, but does access have to be granted?
      Developer claims there is no other source of power except via our easement?

          Depends on the type of easement. I have seen them for drainage only; access only; drainage and utility easement combined,ect...
          I assume from the notes this is an existing easement that has been there for some time and now the developer is wanting to use it?

          Normally if the development is inside the city limits they usually plat the easments when the subdivision goes before P&Z of the that particular city. Some larger high growth counties may do this also through the commissioners court. If it is rural I have not seen many platted. It would be a separate instrument from the utility company.

          If it is not platted and you do not want it to go in, what ever it is. i would have an Attorney look at it.

            Existing easement on our property.
            Request is to run power to the new subdivision.
            14' of private property needs to be crossed/accessed.
