is in the easement, could be enforced. But when in a separate covenant, I guess it would depend on the specific relationship between the two documents. Doe one reference or incorporate by reference the other?

<p class="MsoNormal">Client has a property which benefits from an easement. Other properties in the development also have separate easements over the burdened property. Many yeas later the covenants were revised ( not the easement) to state that the burdened
property could charge for the use of the easement. No price or formula was included just a statement that they could charge. As to be expected, this has now become an issue. Anyone ever heard of a covenant allowing a party being allowed to charge for a
recorded easement to be used for its intended purpose? Thanks, Craig <o:p></o:p></p>
