Chapter 606 – Sale of Property Encumbered by a Conservation Easement
(Effective Date: Oct. 1, 2007):
The seller of property that is subject to a conservation easement must give the purchaser, on or before entering into a contract of sale for the property, or within 20 calendar days after entering into the contract of sale, a copy of all conservation easements encumbering the property.
The contract of sale must also contain a specified disclosure (set forth in the attached bill). Failure to comply with these requirements gives the purchaser the right to rescind the contract of sale.
