By the original community development plan, each homeowner, at the time of purchasing their property, granted an easement: a strip of land 15 feet deep along the back or side property line for both utility and bridle path access. Many utility poles were placed within these easements so utility vehicles can access, maintain, and repair the poles and the wires they support.​

On each shared property line, the two 15‑foot strips together create a 30‑foot‑wide bridle path easement. This easement may be used by horseback riders, dog walkers, pedestrians, and bicyclists for recreation and enjoyment, but motorized vehicles are not allowed. In addition, each homeowner granted a 10‑foot strip of land, another easement, along the edge of their property that borders public roads as an access way for pedestrians and riders on horseback so they can avoid walking on the road.

These easement areas remain part of each homeowner’s property, and each homeowner is responsible for their care. Homeowners may decide how often to cut or trim vegetation, but they must not allow trees, shrubs, or other growth to block access or prevent people or horses from moving freely along the easement. No fence, gate, or other barrier may be constructed across the easement in a way that interferes with travel along the path.
