About the Download
Many construction projects, especially those in urban settings, require using the property rights of others for reasons such as site access, staging, or storage. This downloadable article -- taken from the future book, Forms & Substance: Specialized Agreements for Construction Projects -- discusses the nature and necessity of the different types of agreements used to allow the use of other property for a construction project and examines the elements of a successful agreement. This downloadable chapter in PDF and Word formats includes sample form agreements for reference and use, along with insights on how best to gain the use of others' property or property rights for a construction project.
Among the topics covered in Project Site Agreements include:
Permanent agreements necessary for functionality of the project: easements, licenses, and the differences between each
Essential and recommended terms to include in every agreement
Liability for failure to obtain an easement
Following the background on site access issues are specific agreements and agreement forms with accompanying discussion of each form:
License agreement
Offsite storage agreement
Drainage easement/agreement
Marshalling and staging agreement
Shoring agreement
Sewer/public utilities easement agreement
Temporary easement agreement

This downloadable material contains both a PDF file of the text and commentary and a Word file with the agreements that can be saved and adapted for use in your practice.
