Yes. Easement rights cannot be breached because the easement area is not being used. You would need to get the easement released from that area.

If a homeowners association has an easment to maintain roads can you put a fence in the easment where it does not interfer with the road maintaince?

Your answer may depend on who determines 'interference with road maintenance'. If you have proof that over time, the easement is too generous -- that is, never used during road maintenance, you can petition the board for permission to erect a fence. They may require that the fence be movable, so that in future, should the easement and its original purpose be required, the fence can be relocated.


How can you buy back a utility easement or part of it?

A utility easement is a feature of the property you own, not a loss of property. A utilty easement is a section of your property that needs to be left accessible to the utility (electric company, phone company, etc.) for service, repairs, upgrades etc. You can use the space such as erect a fence but you need to know that if the utility needs to access your easement space they have the right to move or destruct what you have erected.


Can a neighbor build a concrete block and wood fence across a 20 ft wide utility easement?

It depends on the nature of the easement. You need to get a copy of the easement from your county records office, and see what rights it gives the neighbor to build on the easement. Odds are, if it's a utility easement, it belongs to the utility company alone. See a real estate attorney for detailed information on your state's laws.

Can one fence in a yard subject to gas line and electric line easements?

First you must check the language that created the easements. Some instruments specifically state that there will be no permanent structures within a certain distance of the center line of the easement. Regarding a fence, you could contact the easement department of each utility to discuss your needs. Some companies are very accommodating. You may be allowed to erect a fence in your yard but you will need to make the property accessible to the utility companies. If it is a large property the companies may allow the fence but require that you provide gated access to the easement area wide enough for access with equipment. You may not fence in the property so as to block entry by the utility companies.
