Easement Agreements

Welcome to the HUB Easement Agreements page. Here, we explain the legal agreements that allow HUB to access portions of your property to install, maintain, and repair essential utility systems. Our aim is to make sure you understand both the benefits and your rights in relation to these agreements.
What Is a Utility Easement?
A utility easement is a legal agreement that grants HUB the right to use a portion of your property. This access is essential for:
• Installing and maintaining water, wastewater, or electrical systems
• Conducting regular inspections and repairs
• Ensuring uninterrupted service delivery to our community
By establishing an easement, we ensure that critical work is carried out safely and efficiently while respecting your property rights.
Types of Easements
We work with two primary types of easements:
A. Permanent Easements
Permanent easements provide HUB with ongoing access to parts of your property. They are set up to support long‐term infrastructure needs and remain in effect even if the property changes ownership.
Key features include:
• Continuous access for inspections, maintenance, and repairs
• Long‑term support for essential installations
• The easement remains attached to the property indefinitely
B. Temporary Easements
Temporary easements are granted for a limited time, specifically to address short‑term projects such as construction, special installations, or emergency repairs. Once the project is complete, the temporary easement expires.
Key features include:
• Limited-time access for targeted projects
• Use during construction, maintenance, or emergency situations
• Automatic expiration when the work is finished
Your Rights and Our Responsibilities
We understand that your property is important to you. That’s why HUB is committed to balancing the needs of our infrastructure with your rights as a property owner.
Your Rights as a Property Owner:
• Continue using your property within the easement’s scope
• Receive advance notice for planned work (except in emergency situations)
• Request proper identification from HUB personnel on site
• Be compensated for any damage that may occur during work
HUB’s Responsibilities:
• Minimize any disruption and restore affected areas after work
• Provide timely notifications for scheduled maintenance
• Follow strict safety standards during all operations
• Respect your property and its usage throughout each project
