A neighbor is wanting an easement for sewer and water access for a lot he
purchased. Due to our topography, his lot does not have access to city
sewer and water service, and my lot is the only way to feasibly get it.
(City won't approve a septic system for him.)

My question: Should I expect to be paid by him for granting an easement?
I
know that he would be responsible for the cost of running the pipes,
restoring my yard, etc., but it seems that I should also be entitled to
some
additional compensation for the trouble.

The way I figure, he is going to have to trench about 300 feet along my
yard
to reach the street and utilities. (I have about a 2 acre lot.)

Thanks for the advice.
