[WSBARP] fence line agreement

[Gregory L. Ursich]

Bryce is correct on using the Boundary line agreement statute.  You will need a survey of that fence line and new legal descriptions.  You do not need municipal approval as it is a state statute.

See RCW 58.04.007 for agreement on boundry line agreemenents if you fall within the provisions of the statute you avoid a formal bndry line revision at the county or city level.

Current fence line meanders between a boundary line on abutting properties avoiding large trees.  Both owners are considering a written Fence Line Agreement which we would record. Questions:

1.       Should there be a formal survey of this new boundary? (I think yes)

2.       Is a BLA necessary? (I think no)
