Where does the easement go?
« on: August 30, 2006, 11:38:07 AM »
Thought this might be fun for a few folks here.

Legal:
All that part of Lots 8 and 9 in Block 12 of Estates Subdivision, according to map or plat thereof recorded in Plat Book A99, page 999, of the Public Records of Hillsborough County, Florida, lying North of a line parallel to and 5 feet measured perpendicularly, Southerly from the South boundary line of the eight foot utility easement shown upon said map or plat running East and West between said Lots 8 and 9 and Lot 7 of said Block.

The text in (very hard to read with Helios) blue describes a new easement accross the lots.  Mark wants someone to figure out where that new easement should be drawn.

I assumed north to the top.  Here is some incentive - Dent will likely stop by over lunch . . . if there is no answer by then and he gets it right we will never hear the end of it.

Holy crap that's confusing.  I thought south 5 feet from the easement ( from 8' to 13' from lot line).

Offset the southern line of the 8' easement by 5' and you got your new easement.


This part just says where the existing easement is.
Legal:
shown upon said map or plat running East and West between said Lots 8 and 9 and Lot 7 of said Block.

This says where to put it and how big.
Legal:
5 feet measured perpendicularly, Southerly from the South boundary line of the eight foot utility easement shown[/color]

Great news Greg, I think you are qualified to work with Dent.  You want I should PM him and let him know there is a promising young guy that understands legal descriptions and easements hanging out in TheSwamp?

Good answer, the verbage was a bit more confusing than necessary but you cut through it like a pro!

PS
Maverick was right also, but he had inside information.

I just got a scary chill down my spine.

You don't like Dent much do you?

I was just going for one more pull on YOUR chain.  The only way I would seriously try to get you two working together is if were . . . selling tickets . . . hmm . . .
