    Hi!

    Hope your all looking forward to your easter break :)

    So i'm undertaking a development on backwards sloping land. I am in negotations with council on purchasing an easment through a park directly behind me.

    They have asked for $10k + legal costs + survey + $500 application fee. I have pleaded poor and brought the $10k down to $7.5k.

    The neighbours next door will be building a granny flat as well and will be using the eastment without cost as I am the first in the street to do so.

    Is there a way around it or putting a clause to charge anyone else using the easment to dilute costs over time?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Regards

    NHG

    Why don't and speak to the neighbours? You don't ask you don't get.
