Motion Carried
Additions:
If a driveway permit cannot be approved within the frontage under control by the applicant, an easement will have to be obtained prior to issuance of the permit. See Appendix A for a more detailed explanation.
Appendix A
Barry County Road Commission
Easement Information
If a driveway permit is not approved in the location staked by the applicant due to limited sight vision, the inspector will move the stakes and indicate where a driveway can be approved. Every attempt will be made to approve a location within the current road frontage. In the event that there is not an approved location within the property frontage, the inspector will stake the closest approvable location and contact the applicant. In this case, the applicant will be solely responsible for obtaining an easement from the adjacent landowner/s. A copy of the recorded easement shall be submitted to the Barry County Road Commission before receiving the approved driveway permit.
Definition: An easement is a right held by one person to make specific, limited use of land owned by another person. An easement is granted by the owner of the property for the convenience, or ease, of the person using the property. The most common type of easement is the right to travel over or across another person’s land. This is the type of easement needed for driveway purposes.
Process: To obtain an easement you would need to have a surveyor or attorney draw up the easement including all necessary legal parcel and easement descriptions. Other legal details, payments, closings, and fees may apply. Once the easement is completed it must be signed, witnessed, notarized, and then recorded at the Barry County Register of Deeds.
Motion by Commissioner Willcutt seconded by Commissioner Dykstra to authorize the expenses to the 2007 ASMRC Annual Conference December 3-5, 2007 for those attending.
