Swarthmore Easement Analysis
PECO IS BREACHING EASEMENT LIMITS!
(DIRECTIONS BELOW TO SEARCH YOUR PUBLIC RECORDS)
The easement information from your property and the proximity of your house to the power lines is requested to assist with building a case against Peco's plans to chop down close to 100 of the mature trees in Swarthmore.
Many homeowners have confirmed that their property deeds limit the easement for utilities to five feet or less. PECO is overstepping in trying to expand this easement to accommodate these 55 foot poles needing 20 foot clearance free of trees which are inappropriate for a compact tree-lined town.
The easement on the deed to your home specifies how much land a utility may use to provide electrical service. Research your easement by reviewing deeds to your home back to the year 1900.
