This model right of way ordinance was prepared in order to assist county and local government officials and those utility owners operating within respective governmental jurisdictions in coping with the various issues resulting from the Telecommunications Act of 1996. It is not to the intention of the Utility and Public Right of Way (UPROW) committee or the Right of Way Management subcommittee that this ordinance be the definitive right of way legislation. However, it does comprise much of the same language that can be found in local ordinances recently passed in various counties and local governments throughout the country. It is strongly recommended that county and local government officials thoroughly review what is applicable under their state laws before preparing a right of way ordinance.
