What is a Plan of Easement?
A Plan of Easement is a legal document required when you need to use a portion of someone else’s land for essential services like stormwater drainage. It includes:
Exact location and size of the easement
Surveyor-certified measurements ensuring compliance
88B Instrument detailing legal terms and conditions
This document is required for council approvals and ensures your right to use the land is legally protected.
Why Do You Need a Plan of Easement?
A Plan of Easement is required to:
Legalise the use of another person’s land – Prevent disputes and future legal issues
Comply with council and land registry requirements – Ensure your project proceeds smoothly
Obtain approval from adjoining property owners and mortgagees – A necessary step before submission to Land Registry Services
Prevent costly delays – Without an approved easement, your project cannot move forward
At C&A Surveyors, we handle everything from surveying to final approvals, making the process quick, clear, and hassle-free.

Who needs to sign the Plan of Easement?

How long does the easement approval process take?
The timeframe depends on property owner cooperation and council processing times. We streamline this process to help you get approvals as quickly as possible.
