Description

This is a sample document for the granting of an easement and subsequent agreement for granting said easement. A municipality may compel a property owner to grant an easement through eminent domain. An easement agreement gives someone the right to use property for a specific purpose without transferring the ownership of the property. Typically, this refers to land. It can be either a public easement or a private easement. A Grant of Easement and Agreement is a legal document that grants a party the right to use another party's property for a specific purpose. This type of agreement is commonly used when one party (the granter) wants to permit another party (the grantee) to cross, or otherwise use, land owned by the granter. The granter can specify the purpose of the easement, the duration, the rights and responsibilities of each party, and other related conditions. There are several types of Grant of Easement and Agreement, including a right-of-way easement, an access easement, a utility easement, a conservation easement, and a prescriptive easement. A right-of-way easement grants the grantee the right to travel across or use the granter's land for a specific purpose, such as building a road or a railroad. An access easement grants the grantee the right to access land owned by the granter for a specific purpose, such as fishing, hunting, or recreational activities. A utility easement grants the grantee the right to place utility lines on the granter's land. A conservation easement grants the grantee the right to use the granter's land for conservation purposes, such as preserving wildlife habitats or protecting natural resources. Finally, a prescriptive easement grants the grantee the right to use the granter's land for a certain period of time, such as five years, without any formal agreement.
