In Raleigh, N.C., The city is widening a road to 4 lanes. They will be taking a perm. easement of 800 sq. Ft. No big deal. However they wrote me a letter May 1 and advised that they needed a temp. drainage easement that will clear cut 7000 sq. ft. of my .7 acre lot!!! this area now is very dence wooded area with 15 to 20 80 foot or higher oak trees, among many other small trees. What are my rights? They are only offering me 6600.00 which is to include relandscaping after the project is complete in 2 years. my 200,000.00 plus dollar home will take a major hit in property value. HELP! they want to or will begin construction soon. This also upsets me a bit being as though I just got a letter May 1. I had gone to every meeting about this but nothing was said and its been over 16 months list the last meeting was held by the city regarding this.
