It would look like you have road frontage, so you could put your own driveway in on your own property. I assume that is a ravine and it isn't simple, but could be done and would avoid the years of misery of sharing a private driveway with others.

If you read here, that shared driveway thing is just a miserable thorn in the side..........

(Nice drawing and such, that is very clearly done!)

We would love to put our own driveway in. But you're right, there is a pretty steep drop in those trees on the road frontage. In fact, because of the cattails growing there, it is considered a "wetland" and is actually protected by the state which would cause more headaches. Using the utility easement is easiest and is halfway to the proposed building site as it is.



Thanks, we do plan on having a sign at the end of the easement with our address number on it. And thanks, we never thought about propane delivery and such! That's now another concern. lol

Oh, wetlands, I understand. Blah.
