LD1953

Maine LD1953 ensures public access to conservation land by protecting landowners from liability for perpetual public access easements.

Maine LD1953 amends the state's laws to provide additional protection from liability for landowners who grant perpetual public access easements for recreational or harvesting activities. This protection applies to both the landowner or grantor who grants the easement and the holder or grantee who accepts it. The easement must be recorded in the county registry of deeds. This bill ensures that the public can continue to access conservation land for recreational or harvesting activities while protecting landowners from potential liability.
