Legal Road Access? as per the SB County Land Use Services Department, they cannot confirm the physical access to the property. The Land Development Department needs an assigned letter by a land surveyor/engineer stating, there is physical access per SB county code.

What does the applicant do if the county cannot confirm legal access?

There are 3 options.

1. They can contact a title company to see if there are any easements that may establish legal access. The county cannot see all easements on their property so suggest research for legal access/easements from a title company.

2. Or they can sign the Hold harmless agreement which is an agreement that the property owner takes responsibility of any consequences for having no legal access.

3. Ask all the property owners leading up to the nearest county-maintained road to do a voluntary road dedication or easement for a public right of way.
