SB209 - Revise term length of conservation easements

[Charles DeVoe]

I’ve sent 25 emails to Montana state legislators, Tony was the only one woo answered, his reply was he is trying to preserve farm last as farm land. This is not a response. They are just trying to push this through.

Land transfer, ending FWP easements, and ending perpetual easements are published planks in the party platform. Can’t be surprised when they try to act on what they said they’d do. Maybe time to let them know that these planks ought to be replaced?

It's a bit shocking to folks that politicians are going to do what they said they were going to do. They used to hide their intentions in yesteryears civilized society.

Okay maybe I don't understand the point you were trying to make. You said, "When you grant the power company an easement - its perpetual." But I work for an energy company and our easements are not all perpetual.

The easements your electric lines are in are not perpetual?

Or you’re talking about temporary construction easements?

Easements usually are. That doesn’t mean that access can’t turn into a real pain in the ass

Some are but all. Others are if certain requirements are kept, such as maintenance, testing etc. But others are for set terms and then able to be cancelled by either party after the term expires. Not all of these easements are for electric lines (roads, pipelines, etc)

Was the Senate Judiciary Committee included in the 25 emails?

I went to a couple county Republican committee meetings years ago. The closest I will ever come to knowing what a rape victim feels.

Anyone who has not attended this year's Lincoln Day Dinner need not raise their hand. You won't be recognized.

The pols have no regard for future generations.

I wouldn't say that. Graft money invested well will see to their grandchildren nicely.
