An Act relative to certain easements

This bill clarifies property rights for Native American-owned lots in five specific Massachusetts districts: Chappaquiddick, Dudley, Gay Head, Herring Pond, and Mashpee. It establishes that these lots are held in "fee simple absolute" (full ownership without restrictions), and if they lack existing access, courts must create 40-foot-wide easements for vehicle access and utilities to the nearest public road. The easements must meet standard requirements for residential use, safety, and utility installation, and courts will resolve disputes by involving all necessary parties. This directly affects Native American property owners in these districts who currently face access challenges due to missing or inadequate easements.
