§ 58900 Property Owner Notice Requirement

Key Takeaways

  • •Before any big decision is made about a piece of land, the people who own that land must be told about it.
  • •The people in charge (like the government or a company) have to give this notice before they do anything.
  • •This rule makes sure that land owners know what’s happening and can say something if they don’t like it.

Example

A city wants to build a new road that will go through some people’s backyards.

The city has to send a letter or tell the homeowners about the road plan before they start building. If they don’t, the homeowners can say, 'Hey, you didn’t tell us!' and the city might have to stop.
