Survivalists, Town Clash Over Craftsbury Road. There are two lessons to be learned here: 1.) OPSEC, 2.) Fully research any right-of-way and easement issues before buying a retreat property! Unfortunately, the body of case law that has accumulated on prescriptive easements does not bode well for the new land owners. If a road is used “openly and notoriously” with continuity for many years–in this instance for 150 years–then the weight of legal precedent is definitely on the side of the townsmen. (The length of use that establishes a prescriptive easement varies from state to state.) If Mission New England wants a private road, then they need to move to a different locale. Please pray that they can see the wisdom of this, and that the situation doesn’t spin out of control.
