An easement is the legal right for someone to access and control land belonging to somebody else. When termed as a utility easement, it means a utility company’s right to access and control the portion of another person’s land that is located near utility facilities and structures (i.e. utility poles, transformers, overhead or underground electrical lines).

Anaheim Public Utilities requires that you keep utility easement areas clear so that yourself, your neighbors, and anyone who lives, works, and plays nearby stays safe at all times. By restricting activities in and around easement areas, Anaheim Public Utilities can maintain and protect utility structures from damage, ensuring safe and reliable energy to your community.
Most easements are recorded on the title information to your property. If your title information does not reference any utility easements and you have plans to construct something in proximity to an electrical line, power pole, or high-voltage facility, please contact Anaheim Public Utilities, Electrical Engineering.
