message: It is an interest in real property established by agreement between a landowner and land trust or unit of government.
=====================================
I have a concern about this.  I am trying to recall the subject.
There is a way a landowner can, by himself, prohibit development of his property 
without involving any other organization other than local government.
I had hoped to find a discussion of it here.  Seems not.

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: This article contains false statements, most notably "The restrictions of the easement, once set in place, are however perpetual (and potentially reduce the market value of the remaining ownership interest in the property)." Easements are not always perpetual. They are restrictions on the deed, so transferred in sale of the property, but may expire after some time (ex. Wetland Reserve Program easements may be a 30 year agreement. The article also states that the easement owner does not have a right to use of the property. An easement is, in fact, a purchase of property use rights in itself, as specified in the agreement (see https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/easement). 
I am noting this here, without edits, because I am working through the Wikipedia training on proper editing. Need also sources for citation. Jgreenenvi (talk) 15:43, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
