Document background
An Easement And Restrictive Covenant agreement is a crucial legal instrument in Canadian property law, used when there's a need to both grant specific property rights and impose use restrictions that run with the land. This document type is commonly employed in scenarios involving shared access ways, utility installations, conservation areas, or development restrictions. It must comply with provincial property legislation and land registry requirements, varying by jurisdiction across Canada. The agreement typically includes detailed property descriptions, specific rights granted, use restrictions, maintenance obligations, and enforcement provisions. It's particularly important in urban development, infrastructure projects, and environmental conservation, where long-term property rights and restrictions need to be clearly established and preserved through ownership changes.
