Rick, my understanding is that the state (or maybe the county?) controls -- or perhaps owns -- the right-of-way? Which, in Michigan, is "66 feet, or two rods (33 feet), on each side of each section line" (which I don't entirely understand - what do they mean by section line?). I do know that our property description is blah, blah, blah, lying north of county road A-31, blah, blah, blah.... but, truthfully, I'm not at all sure where our property would actually start if not right at the pavement. I know we mow along the shoulder... LOL. Things are pretty loosely controlled here in the UP, I think.

In Catawba SC I was told there was a 15 ft right-of-way from the edge of the road. so what happens if they use that, do they get 15 more feet?
