The easement conditions and the restrictions included are negotiated and agreed to meet the interests of the landowner and the conservation objectives of the easement holder. They are in place to preserve the biological, physical and cultural attributes of the land for future generations.
Different agencies have different interests when it comes to preserving the landscape and this makes it important that communication between the grantor and grantee is forefront to make sure both parties understand the full implications of any restrictions placed on the land.
