Vt. Stat. tit. 19 § 713
Current through L. 2024, c. 185.
When the selectboard lays out or alters a highway, it shall fix in its order the time within which the owner of the lands taken shall remove the owner's buildings, fences, timber, wood, or trees. Without the consent of the owner, the time shall not be less than two months; but if the lands taken have buildings, the time shall not be less than six months; nor, in either case, until compensation for damages is paid if the sum fixed by the selectboard is accepted or damages are awarded by referees. Notice of the time when the removal shall be made shall be given to the owner and included in the selectboard's order. An appeal of the damages awarded shall not stay the work contemplated.
