<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">My client filed for a boundary line adjustment and requested that I prepare the deed from the neighbor. The neighbor is willing to transfer 10 feet along the property line, but
wants to reserve an easement over 3 feet for parking.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I prepared a quitclaim deed for the 10 feet reserving the 3 foot easement for approval. The City Planner came back to me and said that he doesn’t like the reservation of the easement
and it should be done by a separate document. He said that the local title company and the city attorney are in agreement (but couldn’t articulate a reason other than it may get lost (he probably meant missed in a title search) and also that deeds and easements
are registered separately by the auditor. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
