I should've worded it better guys. What I mean is that our side lot is
pretty big and we lose access to doing anything with it because it
becomes an easement according to the zoning official. I didn't mean
they are actually building on my property.


"Becomes an easment" sounds odd to me, but perhaps this is just
a matter of phrasing. I could understand if someone else (city
or property owner) was given an easment right in your title, but
just now decided to exercise it. Or, I suppose the city could
take an easment right by some kind of eminent domain process
(which I suppose amounts to it having that right beforehand.)
But I don't understand how something "becomes" an easement.
I understand "easement" to mean some kind of right over
a piece of your property that you grant, for some consideration,
to someone else. Just for my curiosity, it would be interesting
if the OP or someone else could explain.
