What is the name of your state? Texas
Good morning! We live in East Texas on 30 acres outside a city limits, in the country. WE bought the land in 1999 and built our home here in 2002. We are going to put cattle out here and have to work on some fences. I have searched everywhere on the web for some info on this but can't seem to find any. On the back side of our place we have already put our end posts and posts up ready for wire. We have one place back there for a gate in case the cows were to escape we would have a way to get them back in. Our place back there adjoins another person's property that is unused pasture land and woods. We received a certified letter from this person saying that he would not give permission for a gate to go back there. I guess he was out and assumed that was what it was going to be. Anyway, my question is, doesn't there have to be a gate access when you run cattle on a place in case they got out and you needed to get them back in? We don't want access to this person's property, but we think that is what he is worried about. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks for any help!
